That's such a bad excuse ;)

Never spoke a word of English when I moved there, don't speak Spanish but went there...

Maybe he doesn't know that most continental Europeans speak pretty good English. ;)

They certainly do in Holland and Germany! :D

Where did you go in Germany? :P

I go out there frequently to visit my dad, as he works there, trying to find a english speaking german is a nightmare!

Never heard of it :D

I've been to Dusseldorf, Cologne and Munich

They are all the same to me haha
West Germany http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhineland

When I was in southern Spain no one spoke English, even in Madrid very few people spoke English.
Probably more to do with them not willing to speak it rather than them not being able to speak it at all. They probably all learn it at school but some nations are far more willing to speak it than others. For example when I went to Italy it wasn't in their best interest to speak English but when I went to Holland and Germany they were more willing to speak it.

@Punk nice photos of the animals - D40 with a zoom lens I guess? :)
 
Waddington 2013 photos!

Apologies for the banding on the images - had to seriously resize for the web.

Here are some for Punk - the French Patrouille de France display team. I must say I go to a lot of airshows and the French are usually there with Mirages and Rafales which are awesome. There wasn't a Mirage 2000 or a Rafale at Waddington, but there should be a Rafale at RIAT in a few weeks time (which is another airshow I like going to).

From Sweden there was a SAAB Viggen which displayed. Never seen one of these in person before the other day when I saw it at Waddington. :)

From Holland there was an F-16 which I know is an American fighter but the Dutch operate it too. :)

I have to admit the French are always amazing at these airshows. I thought the Patrouille de France put on a great display at Waddington and in the past they've always done great displays too (been going to airshows for about 7 years now).

My favourite French displays are always the Rafales and Mirages though. Sadly though, the Mirage doesn't seem to attend airshows anymore. :(

I was only kidding but yeah I've seen them a few times and they're pretty good...

You can see some Rafales in Syria (I think) and the Mirages I see them often when they practice fly over France.
