The Man They Couldnt

I'm heading to Santa Ponsa with a group of friends in July and I'm wondering if anyone has any funny stories about their experiences or stories they have heard?

Also any advice on how to survive?

Your excited now. Later in life you will be either too embarrassed to tell anyone you visited Santa Ponsa or it will be the best week of your life.

Santa Ponsa years ago was savage craic for us, met some beautiful girls from Kerry there.............ah, memories.

One word of advice, don't fùck with Guarda Civil as we were told ourselves when we arrived.

One night out at the bars, a complete random guy (think he was Russian) appeared out of nowhere and joined us on a drinking session, never uttering a word, suddenly got completely naked, stood proudly outside the bar staring at people until Guarda Civil arrested him where we saw him the next morning hobbling down the street with 2 black eyes and an arm in a cast :pac:

Santa Ponsa,where there's more crabs in the nightclubs than on the beach :pac:

There's nothing funny about STIs unless its a friend who gets one.

There are 10 of us heading over to Santa Ponsa in 2 weeks! 9 days of mayhem awaits hopefully

Same group of lads went to Salou last year after the LC and we had a seriously good time. First day we arrived nice and early (7am flight) but it felt much later so we hit the shnozz hard and by about 3pm we were well on our way! One of the lads ko'd on a lilow in the pool and we may have taken water polo too seriously in the pool. Looking forward to the same sort of craic this year in Mallorca!

Disco Inferno and BCM better get ready

And with regards to surviving.....make sure to eat , dont spend all the dollas on beer. You wont be able to drink anything except cocktails after about 3 days anyway. A night off (if you are soft) would help you out. Make sure to get down to the beach that where all of the young crowd will be and most f all just make sure you have a great time! Never mind the hangovers!

It's all shnozz, water polo and lilo's with you kids nowadays!

Don't go skinny dipping and leave your wallet etc on the beach. It will be robbed. We learned that the hard way!

Good idea - a little nap after an early flight really helps me recharge the batteries

Does this mean he fell asleep?- I hope he didn't get a bad burn

I'm guessing this is one of those designer drugs the kids are all taking these days. God, when I think back to my day, all we had was cake and we thought ourselves damned lucky to get it.

Just vomit and puke your way around where ever, or better still why not just drink yourself to death and get it over with!

I went to Santa ponsa with my friends on our first holiday, ah what a time we had think that was about 10 years ago now, just back from a totally different family holiday in salou

dundalkfc10

Went to Santa Ponsa 4 or 5 times with the family when I was younger.

Went to Santa Ponsa 3 weeks ago with the woman and hated the place. It has become such a run down (Club 30 type holiday compared to a family resort 15/20 years ago) dump.

Was in Santa Ponsa a few years back and have to say it really has become seriously run down, suffering badly.

This comes directly from one of my Facebook friend's recent statuses:

You know your surrounded by perverts when you ask a man for the time in a nightclub, he shows you on his phone and his wallpaper is a picture of you dancing from the previous night.

Bang as many chung wans as you can or until your flute falls off.

Ohhh I used to love those holidays, can't believe the grumpy people on this thread - surely you weren't born old!

Anyway -

Bumper pack of condoms, painkillers bought before you leave
Write down name and address of accommodation when you arrive or ask at reception for card with details; nothing worse than arriving goung straight on all day lash, lose your friends, phone is dead and you realise you have noooooo idea where you live
Drag your ass to the beach during the day, better craic than pool usually (or you can always crash pool bar at a more upmarket resort) and no matter how hungover you are get sunscreen on before you fall asleep - buy at airport as a group so you have all the numbers. Calamine lotion if you get burnt.
Don't get into fights, do NOT get arrested, our p
Stock up your place with giant water bottles and get some food in at beginnin of holiday before you run out of money
Take it easy on the booze one or two nights
Set rules on pulling ie. who gets bedroom or whatever

I'm sure there are loads of lads-only rules but they worked for me.

These remark indicate that in the past you made specific preparations for engaging in illicit sex with strangers. This indicates that you are a promiscuous individual. Your username indicates you are female. A derogatory term for a promiscuous female is 'slut'. The reason a male does not get called a derogatory name for being promiscuous is that it does not lower his marriageability in the eyes of his opposite gender, whereas with a female member of the human species situated within society it does.

I hope this clears it up.

It does thanks except I never said the condoms or pulling arrangements were for me. Perhaps I just associate with sluts and a) want them to remain STI free and b) do not want them disturbed while enjoying carnal pleasures.

What's sad about it? It's something that was conjured for the protection and betterment of female humans.
