Also: 'This area is very Spanish'........

Whilst in a game reserve in south africa I got talking to an Irish Lady. She complained that they did not sell a map of where each type of animal was.

How thoughtless. I mean it's pretty obvious there are no lions in the rivers - or crocodiles up trees - should be easy enough to map out.

A true story.
A few years ago we hosted a couple in Cracow. We decided on a restaurant in the Jewish section of the City (Kazimir). I phoned a few places first, to find out whether they had live Jewish music. Eventually I found one and made the reservation. After a nice meal I asked for the bill. We waited for a long time and started joking about the size of the bill, because it was taking so long to prepare. My friends made a guess on the amount and I guessed approx. 10% more. It turned out that I was closer because my friends forgot that there was an additional charge for entertainment (quite common here).
When I pointed this out to them the husband said
"If I had know that they were going to charge for the music, I wouldn't have listened"!

The most ridiculous expat complaint is : 'Far too many foreigners in the UK, that's why I left and came to Spain'.

JBoden: I lived in Krakow for a while, beautiful city. Do you know Skawina?
