Tenerife Goes Back to the Peseta & Comes Out of Europe
The shock news for 2012 is that Tenerife will be swapping the euro for the peseta and handing back its European passport in the new year. Full Story

Pure speculation from a comic - not one credible source .

I know the writer, he is very credible.

Oh dear, this does'nt sound good for some

I think it would be splashed across the Spanish press first.If you did not know him would you still give it credence ?

I think before I comment further and in the absence of Jimbo I will wait for 3F, Howard and of course TD's comments.

"día del inocente"

In Spain and Ibero-America, an equivalent date is December 28, Christian
day of celebration of the Massacre of the Innocents. The Christian
celebration is a holiday in its own right, a religious one, but the
tradition of pranks is not, though the latter is observed yearly. After
somebody plays a joke or a prank on somebody else, the joker usually
cries out, in some regions of Ibero-America: "Inocente palomita que te
dejaste engañar" ("You innocent little dove that let yourself be
fooled"). In Spain, it is common to say just "Inocente!" ("Innocent!").
Nevertheless, in the Spanish island of Menorca, "Dia d'enganyar"
("Fooling day") is celebrated on April 1 because Menorca was a British
possession during part of the 18th century.

Oh bugger, I wanted to see what the boys would make of it. Yes it is the equivalent of April Fools day and yes Jack being a good Scotsman has a weird sense of humour. I particularly like his bit about mortgage payments being classed as rent. Also if you were to have looked at the comments you would see that both myself and Sgd have commented.

THE Church Square in Los Cristianos will stage a free dance-off of the lively fusion of Brazilian dance and martial arts for free on Christmas Eve (tomorrow) at 2pm. The craze, called “capoeira” (cap-WAY-rah), has been sweeping gyms and fitness centres in the US. Received: Dec 28, 2011 12:26 PM (2 minutes ago)
