Well 5 years on from the last time here on the continent they still have no conception of queuing. Getting on a bus is still the survival of the fittest more akin to a brawl than a queue. Smoking in restaurants both outside and inside is something I would not want to go back to but it is widespread here. The Germans are still as loud and obnoxious as ever they were, with the French and Italians catching up fast. Although not driving here myself, having watched a lot of the antics on the road there appears very little courtesy for other drivers and some of the driving is ridiculously dangerous. The place is polluted with these electric scooter things flying around on the roads and pavements. Saw a couple of accidents. They seem to be able to go about 25 mph at least and don't get me started about the cyclists! For goodness sake I know we have our own problems here, but for ages I've been heart sick of the Euro nutters putting the UK down and bumming up the Eurozone to the nth degree. There is nothing I've seen in the last week to change my mind that getting out of the EU was the best thing we have done in the past many years and it disturbs me to think some political parties actively support rejoining and others hide their true agenda. Who want want to rejoin the corrupt cartel masquerading as the EU? Oh, the SNP do, therefore one of many many reasons for not voting for them.
That's some amount of total ****e right there
