Hello,

I’ve joined these forums with the hope of getting some answers to questions related to English-speaking children moving to Spain.

As for me, I’m a native Spanish? male from Valencia and my girlfriend is from Australia. We are planning for her and the children to move to Spain within a year, at the latest.

I guess that the appropriate place to ask the questions will be the ‘Moving to Spain’ forum.

On second thoughts, after reading some of the posts by “Santi”, I would appreciate it if you deleted this thread and my account altogether.

I have no desire nor need to stay among morons and hooligans. Then you Brits wonder why you are so widely disliked. I realise that people are far too nice to you.


So long

Oh Dear Santi - looks like you have lost a fan club member. Great shame huh.

I was just about to give some good advice about our experience and some tips my Logopeda sister in law gave us.

I hope he realises I’m also a member of most of the popular expat forums.

Must be a first, a Spaniard coming to an Expat forum for advice on there country.

Gilipollas, can I write that.

Got to say that crossed my mind. Maybe not a legit post because it really is strange and not something my Spanish wife would do. But it takes all sorts - we know, because we get them!

Wow, I’m a bit insulted even. One Brit messes the entire forum up for all the other nationalities? Damn you Brits!!!! :D

We Canadians and Aussies are accustomed to having our things ruined by Brits and Americans though. No surprise.

I’ve also read a few of your posts and I must say in all honesty that you’ve come across to me as an educated and gentle person. I’m sure that your experience here in Spain and with Spaniards must be different enough to Santi’s.

I didn’t mean to dump you ?nor all others like you? within the bigoted nature of Santi. My sincere apologies if you’ve felt it that way.

So I’ve heard.

You may keep them for yourself. I don’t see how anyone related to you would be of any help to anyone.

I hope he realises I’m also a member of most of the popular expat forums.

One experience is one too many. Whatever makes you think that I’ll go again to ask to any forum where there are British immigrants.

Must be a first, a Spaniard coming to an Expat forum for advice on there country.

Others will have noticed that I was requesting advice not on my country, but on the experience of English-speakers with children in my country (or in any other country where English is not the native language).

It was so obvious that only a retarded could not have seen it.

Gilipollas, can I write that.

You can. But you ought not to.

For no reason other than that, before attempting to write in a language that’s foreign to you, you ought to learn how to write properly in your own language.

A quick reading at your posts will tell anyone that any seven year old child has better writing skills than you. And I’d dare add that better comprehension skills too.

Zing! Okay, I’m going to have to close this thread at this point because it’s getting out of hand (and way too offensive to all the innocent folks from Spain, the UK and the US).

Yago, please do feel free to ask questions about English-speaking children in Spain. I know there are lots of good people around here who are happy to chime in to help you, but you’ll have to start a new thread. 😊
