Come on, I’m sure you’d be upset if you were enjoying a quiet espresso (a coffee) on a nice piazza (a square) and a load of ecky thump sombrero wearing sunburnt Brits rocked up and started pouring pint after pint of lager down their throats and singing No Surrender every five minutes and getting excited that the bar stays open past 11pm. I’m not being snobby, just wanting a quiet chilled life. Would you want this on the table next to you?
I enjoyed being on lads holidays in those resorts back in the day. Best time ever.
But I’ve successfully avoided them ever since. Reasons, one was being in a packed bar watching an FAC Semi, quietly drinking when a pissed up Cockney double my age or more wanted to fight me because “I wasn’t downing my pints quicker enough”. His wife was totally embarrassed. Younger work colleagues, nice guys, were bottled by Mancs in Tenerife.
I’m with you.
