No need for plastic palm trees

criticism is the only and best source for improvements.

how many in the UK are educated to know that?

and Why are English people always so nasty, aggresive, violent and vulger! is it a racial genetic defect?

Spain should use real fish in their paella, they should keep their pubs, give british tourists a sprinkle of their culture, also PLASTIC palm trees, there [i]are[/i] 50 specias, and seeds can't cost quite as much as plastic ones.....

Eddie: Hi there - here's a turn up for the books, I thoroughly agree with what you say. It is an absolute disgrace that we have such filthy, lazy people in our midst that can't be bothered to take their litter home with them. I live in the middle of rural Northamptonshire, in a very beautiful area of countryside. Frequently we get people driving out to a beauty spot at the bottom of our village, parking up, and having a picnic on the set aside with their kids and dogs. Great, lovely to see people sharing our beautiful countryside. And then what do they do? Pack up all their plates, cutlery etc. very neatly into their car - and drive off home, leaving empty cans, bottles, paper and plastic behind on the grass.

This baffles me, it really does. I despair of some people. How would they feel if I scooped up their detritus, followed them back to their house and dumped the lot in the middle of their beautiful flowerbed? Outraged at a guess. And yet they consider the countryside to be a convenient dustbin for their rubbish. I have seen people actually stopping in a lay-by - where there is a perfectly good wastebin, and empty their ashtray, sweetie papers etc. out onto the road and then drive off. It's unbelievable.

Real palm trees do, still, grow in Cornwall because of the warm currents off shore. Great place to visit. Much nicer than Spain and keeps the economy at home.

Angry Englishman, Your a DISGRACE to the UK. Comments like that go to show what intelligence people like you have.

Matty, couldn't agree more, this country is filthy, and living in Victorian times. How many times do you see people just throwing their rubbish on the ground, when it's just as easy to take it home, or to the nearest BIN, if you can find one.

Blackpool is one GOOD example, used to be busy with holiday makers and day trippers, now it's the SEWER of the north, drugs and Violence from boozed up YOBS, with their rubbish just thrown on to the ground.

Walk, or drive through the town early mornings, and you'll see what I mean. Fish and chip papers blowing around, broken bottles and cans, EVEN HUMANS staggering around from the night before.


Joaquin,, welcome to Untidy Kingdom

Typical attitude angry Englishman, if you don't like this country go back home. No wonder people don't want to come here anymore. The guy was just pointing out that we could improve our resorts, no need to bite the head off!

If you don't like the trees piss off back to Spain.

I didn't realise that there were species of palm tree that could withstand the English cold weather. How come we don't see more of them planted around? I've seen the plastic ones and they look just awful!

Nearly as Tacky as bullfighting, but not nearly as harmful. Spain, a country riddled with Culture, when I went on Holiday there, all I found was British pubs, watered down sangria, and Paella made from canned Tuna, come on Spain, there are hundreds of species of fish in your waters, you can do better than tinned prawns and tuna.
