Something to make you smile
I have just popped down to Mas y Mas to buy a few bits for the Easter weekend and ended up standing in the middle of an aisle laughing not smiling. Why.....well my town has about 3000 inhabitants of which I am the only English person, everyone speaks Valenciano to each other and only speak Spanish when they speak to me......drum roll for the supermarket because they were playing an announcement in English!!!!
As anyone who lives in a small Spanish town knows the people are so busy chatting to each other whilst out shopping that they do not hear the announcements in their own language so having it in English which none of them understand is a total waste of time.
As we all so often say.......only in Spain!!!!!
