like most others, learning Spanish has been difficult - getting older and not being always able to get to classes etc

the very kind people in the Coin Foreigners department found me a home tutor at really reasonable cost - so I learn one on one

I'm getting on really well - if you live in Coin, go and ask them!

Didn't know whether to put this in here or in the jokes section:

A Spanish gentleman went to London and popped into a clothes shop to get some socks.  Unfortunately his English was comparable to the typical British Tourists Spanish.

I will like calcetines, he says

The salesman brings out a shirt.  No, no, es una camisa.  I want calcetines

Out comes a jacket,  No, no, es una chaqueta, he says, I want calcetines (points to his feet).

Out comes a pair of trousers.  No, no son pantalones, calcetines.

Out comes a pair of shoes.

No, no, no zapatos, calcetines

Eventually out comes a pair of socks.

Ah, says our Spanish gentleman, eso si, que es.

Well if you could blood spell why didn't you say so, says the assistant
