Some people saying which country they think is the best In Europe; Do you agree with what they say?
They also have to say what they ate last night and tell a joke (I'll give you a hand with the jokes as they are not extremely funny):
By the way, the joke goes like this: "There goes a snail skidding" (Va un caracol y derrapa, hahaha)

ANSWERS
TWO SPANISH KIDS
Hello. We have chosen Spain because it’s our country and we wouldn’t live in any other place. Firstly we have to talk about the fantastic weather. You can enjoy a beach day in the Canary Islands and skiing in Granada. Everybody knows that Spanish food is delicious and also very healthy. It’s not expensive to enjoy a great meal with Spanish ham, wine and tapas. You can have fun in many different local parties and meet a lot of people. We are very kind and we think everybody must visit Spain at least once. For dinner yesterday I had pasta with tomato sauce. An I had a sandwich and a salad. And the joke” there goes a snail skidding”. Bye.
“I think the best country in Europe is Spain. I love for a 100 different reasons, something I see in everyday life here which is great is their flexible attitude to rules. What I mean by that is that nobody gets angry or in a twist if you are a few minutes late or if you double part for a few minutes or push a queue, that kind of thing. Obviously if you are in the receiving end of it, if you are the one waiting or the one whose car is blocked in, it can be really annoying. And my husband is really going to laugh when he sees this because he says I’m the first to complain but I do think that it’s more a positive trade than a negative one. And the British tend to be quite uptight about those things. What did I have for dinner last night’ I can’t remember exactly but something gluten free because I’m a coeliac. And the joke: “What did then Spanish fireman call his twin sons? Hose A and Hose B”
