I do bodybuilding (had my first contest last year) and also play football. I also love diving and try to get my certificate this year to maybe do it professional.

Thank you.

Cricket is bit like golf?

I was in britain last year but propably at the most unlikely place people visit britain for first time. Our ships engine was fucked up near Foula and we got help from some fisher people from Shetlands. They pulled us in and while it was repaired we got a place to sleep and were invited for food. Also as Spaniard you need to get such a online certificate to enter but the lady responsible there was very nice and helped us all. Very friendly people but hard to understand. xD. But we got along well.

I really wouldn’t say that it is like Golf.

I am from London and while I know Edinburgh well and have been to Glasgow a few times, I do not know all of Scotland and have never been to the Shetlands, which are if anything more Norse than Scottish. I probably couldn’t understand the accent either. We have a wide of accents in the Uk. I speak with a standard Southern English accent however so you could probably understand me.
