Well you've already moved my post to the Siesta forum

Then I'm advised to get local help. Typical English, push the "problem" elsewhere.

So I tell you what I'm going to do, as a last port of call.

I'm going to go down to spain, buy some chocolate, roll myself a great big spl*ff and sod the lot of ya!

Sod sobriety, I'd drink and smoke down the beach or up in the mountains. I'll spend my inheritance ( been very careful of it so far) recklessly

I don't figure that I'll "make any friends" on here or otherwise.

Thanks for the experience, I know where I stand. I won't be giving it another chance

Ciao xxxxx

A Troll is what you are Tommy you little keyboard warrior!!

In Internet slang, a troll (pron.: /ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is someone who posts inflammatory,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as a forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[3]

What a lovely little expat forum you have here, You can the expats out of the Slum but you'll never take the slum out of the expats as has been proven here today.

It's no wonder the Spanish and the French hate your guts, you are so vile!!

Good point. Also British Expats has a forum for practically every country in the world so why not choose the one where you live

Have a look here

What difference does it make?? I've already said I'm near. I told you in my 1st post. Now one would deduce I'm in France or Portugal. unless Spain has any other boarders Im' unaware of!!

I thought being near we had some common ground but obviously not going they the response from the members you have on the Spanish forum.

I'm a black lesbian from eastern Europe and I fight for a free Palestine!!

Now!!- Can I have some respect PLEASE on this God Forsaken Forum!

Not from this Northerner you can't, if you want to fling insults around you can hardly be surprised if people don't want to know you.

OK - What's the weather like in Spain today?? Remember last year when it was really hot and I had my shorts on?? What a difference a year makes!!

Least it's not snowing!
The main forum is for discussing issues to do with living in Spain. Siesta is the section of the Spain forum that is for threads that are not to do with Spain.

It's also April 1st...
Apologies to the OP if you are bona fide, in which case you should seek treatment. Insulting the Spain forum members might make you feel better, but you're getting every one's back up.
