You know you've lived in Spain when... PART 1

1) You think adding lemonade, fanta or even coke to red wine isperfectly acceptable. Especially at lunch time.
2) You can't get over how early bars & clubs shut back home - surelythey're shutting just as you should be going out?
3) You aren't just surprised that the plumber/decorator has turned upon time, you're surprised he turned up at all.
4) You've been part of a botellon.
5) You think it's fine to comment on everyone's appearance. And toopenly stare at strangers.
6) Not giving every new acquaintance dos besos seems so rude.
7) You're shocked by people getting their legs out at the first hintof sun - surely they should wait until at least late June?
8) On msn you sometimes type 'jajaja' instead of 'hahaha'

16) Every sentence you speak contains at least one of these words:'bueno,' 'coño,' 'vale,' 'venga,' 'pues nada'...
17) You know what 'resaca' means. And you probably had one at leastonce a week when you lived in Spain .
18) You know how to eat boquerones.
19) A bull's head on the wall of a bar isn't a talking point for you,it's just a part of the decor.
20) You eat lunch after 2pm & would never even think of having yourevening meal before 9.
