Cant wait to get back to Mallorca sooner the better ..
Why does he go back to UK is it work ? |
Yeah, and cos of the recession/credit crunch thing going on, he's having to spend more time watching whats going on there. He's never been one for ehjoying the heat, he's very fair skinned and prefers the English climate. He also feels safer (mentally) in the UK cos he knows the language, the way things are done and the life style, he keeps saying its so nice to go into a shop and chat to the sales assistant, to be able to understand whats going on around him. Of Spain, he says, so far the Brits he's met out here all seem to be trying to rip each other off and he doesnt understand the language or the mentality of the Spanish and feels out of his depth. Also he's concerned about the economy in Spain
As you can tell we've had "words" on the phone this morning and he's seriously considering trying to convince me to go back to the UK!
