Someone is driving about the Costa in a FRENCH registered taxi.
Has it got a 'Fly Ryanair' ad on it? :D

90% of the cars on the Spanish Costa Brava are French registered. Probably 50% of those are here all year around as "permanent""tourists". Spanish are to blame, too lazy to check up on who lives in Spain as undeclared "residents" and too much trouble to get them for tax fraud.

A handy hint:
Imagine that the "auto correct" facility is a tiny elf in your phone or laptop who's trying SO hard to be helpful but is in fact quite drunk

Fingers crossed.
