I think he is saying, just cos it doesn`t work out for some people in Spain, it may for others, so don`t say its Spains fault.

I`ve never blamed Spain.

It`s a mixture of lots of factures, I have come across Spaniards with racist/homophobic views, but i don`t label all Spaniards as racist idiots although this do`s come in handy "Me parece que la vena de la lengua pasa por tu culo porque hablas mucho mierda".

Although that may just apply to my Spanish cousins.

Convince him, not me ;-))

I`m writting to whoever reads my response to your quote, not you directly.

I`m sure there are, but this is the Spanish section of an Expat site, so we are only discussing Spain, not the rest of the world.

Any Spaniard who cannot critizise Spain is one of two things, both inpolite, one would be an idiot, the other a liar.

I criticize my country and other parts of the world. You only criticize my country (as if the worst in the world was exclusive of Spain). That is the difference.

You say your version, and I say mine

You really should explain yourself more fully. I read the Spanish news and have not found anything to be "offensive and untenable".

I find there is good and bad in all nationalities and would never be negative about an individual unless I knew him or her. In general in my part of Spain everyone seems friendly and willing to chat albeit my Spanish is very broken. Most people will say good day to you when walking in the street which is lovely.
I only occasionally come across an unfriendly person and that is quite often a young person. Otherwise most people are very helpful. For my part I am happy living here. There are things I do miss about my part of the UK (South West) but mainly it is friends and family, and also the "buzz".

lee8

You`d be hard pressed to seek somebody not criticizing the UK.

Again this is the part of the site discussing Spain, so no I`m not goin to discuss the good and bad about the United States of America.

I`m just as qualified to criticize Spain as you are, I got married in Spain, Baptised my children in Spain and half my family are Spanish, sorry half my Family are Basques, I forgot, sorry.

By the way, why does your writting improve one minute then the next it makes no sense at all.

It`s as if you hidding something.

BABELFISH!!!


Oh and I don't criticize the UK, never will, never have.

Its a beautiful country and I will always think so.

There is a bit of a rumour, I'm not saying if its true or not, that SOS is maybe English, he types out his piece, translates it into Spanish then back into English.


Try it and your posts can sound all screwed up too.

I don´t speak in general terms, I don't refer to the british, of course. For example, although among the british there are also hooligans, but also in the spaniards, or any other nationality. Somebody can complain in Spain on the topic of the language with respect to that many british don't want to speak Spanish, they prefer their communities, etc etc etc, but I believe that this is of less, because for general norm you are very educated people (I never heard complaints nor nothing resemblance). Here we know very well what type of foreigners they have arrived in Spain to offend and to make us impossible the life, not only to the spaniards, also to the british, or any other nationality that lives peacefully in Spain

But it is not this the topic. The topic is the that I have with Lee8, that he likes a lot to play the balls

lee8

No me importa dos cojones Pendejo.

That would explain why he sounds strange and nothing like a Spaniard with poor English language skills.





My view is you have been fooled, fool.
