Falkland islanders celebrate being landmine free - after nearly 40 years

[Graham]

Is Spain not too sunny and hot for the British?
Yet you come here for millions like sheeps.

If you don't like sheep you wont like Falkland. Full of them.

Technically not much more than for Brits

According to this map, Malvinas Islands climate is perfect for Turkish.

Sin embargo Australia o las islas del Caribe parece que no son nada cálidas para los británicos.

Is Falkland not too cold and dark for the Spanish?

Looks like a bigger version of Shetland & Orkney.

Well Galicia, and Asturias and the Basque Country are versions of Scotland but climatologically a little warmer.

I'm glad that there are no mines, after all it's normal civilians who go to the beach, not military.

I know. Was just kidding around. Though 14C peak in the summer on an Island would be hard work for some visiting Malvinas/Falkland.

Versions of Scotland, JUAS!!

Nothing wrong with Scotland (except the fact of being British and a some extent bitches of England) but it is a bit offensive that of "versions of", specially in the case of such historical regions as Galicia, etc...
