I have a Galaxy A21s, no redeeming features, camera not much cop, forever saying memory is nearly full, fuck knows why as I only have 20 or so photos stored on it, and only 2 more apps installed than it came with, slow as fuck too, but I only use it to look on here, YouTube and WhatsApp messages.

It's OK for my needs.

I have a dead one on the shelf, as you say shit phones.  My daughter killed it by dropping it down the bog.  When work decided that they could no longer afford iphones for the drones (us) they issued us with A21's they were shit and lasted less than two years in service, now when have some equally crap new cheap Samsungs, I haven't even bothered to see what model they are.  I am no fan of Androids anyway but the cheaper end of the scale are dire.

Meanwhile in Spain the illegal Brits are still complaining about getting their marching orders!

At last we've finally discovered a Brexit benefit! But only for people like me!

Because Britain is having to take back all the freeloaders who've never been legal and have never paid a penny into the system here. Now they can freeload back there instead!

Thanks for that @Six30 you raging gammon!

I was surprised to see that most of the people going into and out of the UK via ferry, or out and into Spain as well, didn't have their passport stamped. Can't see how you can enforce any limit in stay over an area if you don't register entries or exits of said places.

I felt cheated, not adding to my passport's stamps, not that a second set of stamps would have made it look very used though :classic_laugh:

Sounds like a dangerous idea to me.

It is, it feels like a climate of modern nannyism is setting in, for example here we now have outdoor publicity stating that radars save lives. They should send radars to work in the hospitals that have no money to pay doctors, then, two problems solved.

“Many expats are having to return to the UK due to the 90-day rule. Brexit basically was a pack of lies,” Lucy added.

 

Oh Really !!   So people are just waking up to that are they .  Where's the 350 million extra a week gone that was supposed to help the NHS ?

Having FOM doesn't mean that they are contributing financially to the country they choose to live in.

You don't automatically get free healthcare etc by having FOM.......you have to pay into the system or have private medical insurance.

And if you've overstayed the 90 day limit for Brits, you are there illegally and can be deported. They can't deport Europeans obviously.

The French bikers have been kicking off the last few years about CT (MOT) being introduced for bikes. They'd lynch anyone even suggesting different speed limits!

We don't get our passports stamped, but we have to show our French residency cards. Any brits without residency cards got their passports stamped. This is at the airports, so the border guards in Spain may not be as efficient. 

Obviously,  if we travel within the Schengen area we don't even have to show our residency cards and the passports are just for identity checks. 

Things are going to be fun from next year with the Etias scheme being implemented.

True, but I was surprised to not have my passport stamped in the UK either.
