@simoninmadrid @LaPortadaPod It's advisable not to drink Gin + Tonics (or any 'copa' for that matter) at the rate you might in any other country. And the barperson IS expecting you to signal when to stop pouring. The 'it was nearly all ice' excuse won't cut it on the flight back the next morning...

@elpaisinenglish Is there a link to the Spanish version anywhere? I can't see it. Would be good to be able to forward to Spanish readers. Or is this an original article?

Spanish neologism, first heard today on Cadena SER radio: borisjohnsonismo.

Rough translation: ignoring data, then correcting by imposing harsh measures later. Also known (I'm claiming authorship) as horsehasboltedismo

They're called "Boss" or "Gaffer" in the UK. In Spain, football coaches are known as "Mister". Apparently thanks to Mr. Fred Pentland from Wolverhampton, who - in 1922, coached Athletic Bilbao to various trophies, including beating Barca 12-1 and Madrid 0-6. Gracias Mister!

35°c today, yet so many people carrying jackets and jumpers. You know, just in case...

If the IOC cancels #Tokyo2020 the world will never get to see if Spain can better their 2012 official Olympic kit. Doubtful, but there's always hope.

Surprised Liverpool are losing. Hoping for a good atmosphere and some unspecified magic seemed like a foolproof managerial strategy to me.

@pedrolimousin era muy bueno con el everton con muy poco dinero. Lo único es que aquí suelen darles un par de años antes de juzgarles...
