It is not really smuggling, because it is legal as long as it is for personal use, but each time I go to Spain to do some shopping, I feel like a smuggler. I landed yesterday at Biarritz International airport. Half an hour before...

topffer @vandana7 I recognize your humor. I tend to bite my tongue when a joke like this come to my mind, today a subordinate may complain for bullying on a joke said just because it is fun without any bad intention.

topffer "You chose your friends, not your family". Exactly what I think. I don't think my brother has ever read a line from me, and I don't care about that, each one at home and the sheep will be well kept.
