I’ve got a question for you guys: Why do the English girls do not like Spanish people? I have seen it twice this week (me and my friends are on hollydays on Veronicas), and the thing is, English girls have got something against Spanish guys, and I’d like to know waht it is, I’m just curious. Thank you, great website. Regards

People who drive at a snail’s pace when negotiating corners and then like Fernando Alonso on the straight, so that you can’t get past them…ever.

I like this. It’s like the reverse of hard sell. The more I hear, the more I feel like heading to Tenerife for another holiday.

I think it can all be summed up in one word: Unique. That’s why I love Tenerife, fag butts, challenging drain covers and all.

Surprised noone has mentioned exploding gas cylinders, yet… Just ask JC for more on that.

PS – great site. Love it. Will promote it widely as much as I can. Keep up the incredible work.

Problems with the pavements to catch the unwary ie.

Dog Mess
Uneven tiles to help you trip
Chewing gum
Drain covers that stick up to catch you out
Cigarette butts outside shops

Not strictly true, Sandra. There’s a bar in Guia de Isora that opens on Sunday. For a bit. Well, well the owner feels like it.

Hahaha loving this although I love Tenerife but I’m also one of those people who was living there and spoke English! but hey when I tried speaking Spanish I got the ‘Why don’t you know Spanish yet?! how long are you here blablabla!’ Mercadona is the best but what’s up with EVERYTHING being closed on Sundays…??

Ok, John… just for you, see our new things I hate about the UK list. How about you compile one for Germany? Send it to me at writer@joecawley.co.uk
