    Lol.

    I reckon I'm coming from a position whereby these visitors were hated regardless of their monetary value to the country. As I said in my OP, this forum has bad mouthed these visitors consistently (and I have done so too) despite what they bring in revenue over the past few years prior to the recession.

    Many of them are of a particular spanish clan, not representative of Spaniards as a culture. Many are the equivalent of the more vacant D4 types here.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    Definitely (did I spell it right drunk?). Rich kids ahoy. Bizarre bunch." Get your own glass of water for the love of God and yeah, it's only pen on your arm. Relax." is what I feel like saying 80% of the day. Roll on the (crap) pay check. Ah well, another story to tell anyone who cares to listen.

    There seems to be less this year than last probably a sign of the recession, they're still as annoying. I actually feel sympathy for dublin bus drivers having to deal with them.

    Cue intense awkward silence..

    It's you again. The guy who has it in for me for no justified reason. Are you going to call me ugly again for having a differing opinion to your own? Did I make this thread about me? Off ye pop, have a **** and vent your frustration elsewhere, buddy.

    Also, I should add that recent research shows that the Irish aren't in fact Celtic but rather from northern Spain! I know many have suspected this for a while bt it seems we're no longer Celts lol.
