Re: Pensions
My oh my.....don't get your knickers in such a twist......
You are assuming once again!
Point number one, I do not and never have felt superior to the Spanish, I am far too deeply and closely involved with them for that, and I actually consider them on the whole to be wonderful people .
Point number two, you are in fact not the only one here with blood family that is Spanish... so please don't presume that you and you alone are the only one with experience.
My observations so far of you is that you try to be antagonistic towards a few of the members here.....so whom is it being childish.
You apparently read things into what is written in a completely different way from how they were meant, if you don't agree with that then just read back some of your own posts.
Merry Christmas ... Feliz Navidad

Now now, it is the season of goodwill after all.
Can someone explain to me why so many threads end up with all this bickering and sniping?
It seems unecessary and detracts from the quality of the threads.

If so your comment of "they are all rich beyond their wildest dreams", thanks to the the Expats that bought their houses", is even worse than ever.
It is the same as Londeners bering told that thanks to the very kind Arabs that have paid millions for mews houses, that they are rich beyoned their wildest dreams.
You couldnt make it up.
Isnt it strange that the big industialists and such in Spain who really are rich beyond thier wildest dreams, Amancio Ortega springs to mind, did not have to wait for some kind and charitable expat to come along and buy their property to make it big.
Shame on you for that post and even more shame for your ancestry.
Sorry I have gone off topic, but I do find this post quite sickening.

You must be the sort of Spaniard that tourists mean when the say the Spanish are rude and ignorant...strangely enough I've never agreed with that view...but you could easily change my mind.
Please if you are going to bully and insult people on here do get your facts right.
I did not say I was Spanish, what I said was I have blood relations who are Spanish, that's quite a different thing!
I was also talking about how it IS HERE in Andalucia, I happen to live in an area where the locals have sold property and land to foreigners at the height of the property boom (not to me), and it has made them rich.
There is nothing at all wrong in that and I say good luck to them all.
Fortunately for us the local Spanish people that we live alongside happen to like us living amongst them, not one of them has a chip on their shoulder like you seem to have, not one of them resents foreigners living here as you appear to do.
I have done nothing to you and don't deserve your caustic comments and aggressive and disrespectful behavior towards me.....
So shame on you for for letting down your own countrymen with your disgraceful attitude.
Now kindly go away and pick on someone else for a change.

Not half as sickening as I find your insulting and very aggressive attitude!
