Well, I'll tell you more than that. A. You will need some time off just to have a little respite because I know how hard you work. Dude, well thanks dude, but I mean you blink where the car is, but Carl's been on vacation again, right? Oh yes, that's right, yes, because Carl, you do nothing and you have weekends off, you take at least five or six weeks of vacation a year even though you don't have a job now you're meant to do this and still you live a holiday basically yeah, why do you need a holiday to be around you?

Your big day last week was for Zapateros, so why did you need a break so badly this week? It's just that you know it's good for your brain and that's it, it opens it up a little bit, you're not evidence of that, where did you go gr caner for a week? just sitting um well, there's not much else to do in gr caner. I mean, I don't want to go around ruining a place because every time I talk about somewhere I get in trouble, but it's like a big rock, it's just volcanic Vol in it, you look like a little Barnacle, have you been there before?

Have you been around her before another rock that was just why did she come back? Because you think well, they can't have a ton of these. islands that are the same as a big rock with hotels, they can't get away with it, so you think they obviously get away with it, but why do you keep going to these places that are rocks? Why don't you investigate? First ask your travel agent if it is a giant rock because that's what you do, go and find out for yourself. I mean, when Armstrong went to the Moon, what did he expect there?

It's a fact that it's a big rock and it still went that far, I don't know what that point was, so what I'm saying is sometimes tell us about the moon landing, how you got started, what you know about it, you know, because I mean to until now. We've been given a lot of information about the moon landing, so there was Armstrong, there was Armstrong on that, yeah, there was a guy called Buzz, yeah, and another guy, yeah, poor bastard, yeah, I never remembered that, yeah, go on and they're gone. . Two of them came up there, one of them didn't bother the one called I don't know who it was, he didn't even stretch his legs well, he went up there, they had to tell Potter that there was a wandering, he came back again.

Yeah, so that's all you need to know. , yeah, and your opinion doesn't make sense to me, yeah, but to them I'm sure they had a good time and that's what I'm saying. Sometimes you just take a chance, don't you? visit a place, make your own decision and then what did you do with this place? You enjoy it. Gran Canaria is just a big rock, but I bet the moon was better? What did you do? It was just uh you know it's a. One of them is a big hotel, that's where I made a mistake, it was one of those big, huge places where there are a lot of people and you know you're going to dinner, that describes a hotel, yes, you understand I've been.

To some, that sounds like it, no, but you know? You know what I mean? There are some nice little ones where there are enough people, but this is like crazy and that was all it was, it was full of older people. I really want to say that's probably why it's called Gran Canaria, right, because it's just yeah, but what I thought about starting to do is start a journal, okay? Why just because I've had a little free time and that's all I thought? Write it, write it, write things and do you hope that one day this will become one of the best?
