    That of the vows is nonsense, they are the same festivals that have been celebrated all their lives, the only one that has been added are the Moors and Christians

  2. Miquel says:

    A study revealed that elections are won when more parties are held in a town, the youth only wants to party and drunkenness, they do not care at all about the well-being of the elderly or the improvement of the town or anything, when more parties are held, the more votes they have .
    I am sorry that they think more about parties than spending more money on infrastructure improvements and older people, the new generation is the one that will lead us to bankruptcy.

      The study of your brown balls, bro.

        How graceless you are, and how unpleasant you are.
        I imagine that you are the representation of the modern, the coarse and coarse that the left generates.

      • Miquel says:

        The mayors who double the expenditure per inhabitant destined to the organization of popular festivities during the last year of the legislature obtain 2,5 percentage points more votes in the following elections.
        The more party, the better electoral result.

    • Rosana says:

      And all these parties generate an economic movement in the businesses of Xàbia that are positive for those of us who are dedicated to it. And they also allow people to have fun and be with their neighbors, remember traditions, create "community"... I don't see it as a bad thing.

      But of course, in this forum everything is always wrong, I forgot.

      • neighbor of the town, fed up with parties. says:

        So if someone thinks something that doesn't suit you, that's wrong, right?
        What fascists are you the rojerio.

        • Rosana says:

          You are very fair in reading comprehension, neighbor.
          I'm not saying that opinions are "wrong", but that opinions tend to be that everything (whatever, parties, the morning star, whatever) is "wrong." And if someone like me who has a business thinks that something is "right" then you call him a fascist. Do you see the difference, dear friend?
          A big kiss
          breathe, smile

        • Hadrian-Trajan says:

          Rosana. Do not bother yourself. Here when you disagree with something, they immediately call you red. Too many obtuse minds that do not see further. Regards.
