It's always wonderful to get feedback...


There's nothing I like more than the positive feedback from my readers, so I was touched when H at www.typicallyspanish.com asked if he could use my Semana Santa piece on his excellent website.

Alas a day later, he took it down due to comments such as the examples below

"It is no wonder the youth of today are facing so many problems when adults make comments like this. The person who wrote this rubbish article should be removed from the position of writing for Typically Spanish, indeed the article should be removed"

"Señor Editor, please at least set some standards for publishing opinion pieces. Oh, and before you give me the one-two about "it´s just an opinion piece", please remember that even opinion pieces should avoid ostracising and offending people based on where they were born. This is hopefully the last pile of rubbish I will have to read today. Just my OPINION. bah"

"Don't keep demonising the youth in the UK, Mr Editor. Most children get their drinking habits from their parents. You have such a warped view of life."

Chaos, confusion, an angry mob at my door with burning torches?

All in a day's work!

  1. Don't listen to them - what a bunch of tedious, po-faced twunts! (Yes, that last word DOES mean what you think it does!)
