I tried my hand at street-performance while I was there. My talent being the ability to balance bottles of water on my head. Did I get much money? No. Just lots of funny looks.

Welcome back Jake, hope you had a nice time.
Welcome back Jake! That's an enviable skill you have there... ;-)
Welcome back Jake! What is going on with those trouser turn-ups? scary :)
Good point Darren.
Excuse: It was the last day so bags were packed and I was in "flying clothes". Had just been for a quick paddle in the sea and hence the turn-ups. Honest...
Welcome back J!

It's okay when I ask for things ("tres vodka y limón fantas, por favor") but useless when people talk back to me and I just look at them with a blank face and mumble "No entiendo".
lol. My wife is exactly the same. I am constantly surprised by how many sentences she can string together. She is a life saver when abroad (she can do the same in French too).
The trouble is they then think she can hold a conversation - and they yabber in tongues.
Being understood to survive and holding a conversation are so far apart it would seem :)
