Response to Claude's article

How many times have we seen this abroad?
If the 'natives' don't speak English, what do we do?

We shout! Well, I'm saying we, but I am embarressed to say that there are a hell of a lot of Brits who do just that.

I want to go to Spain this year, as I have been trying to learn a little Spanish. But I am afraid that when I get there it will be the usual;
Noisy bars full of drunken Brits, expecting everybody to understand their language, with very little respect for anybody or anything! And the worst thing for me is the ignorance when expecting 'English food', well roughly described as English, Burgers, chips and fried rubbish.

They don't know what they are missing , they should join our language classes!!!!!
