I am afraid not Bella :(, i wonder what is going to happen to all the TVs when it is all over :confused:.
|
Hopefully they will all go back in the attico! Or will they just find another reason to keep them outiside until the rain starts again!?
It really does irritate me when restaurants inflict things on people outside the confines of their own building. |
I really don't think restaurants are a suitable place for TVs :confused:. It would give me terrible indigestion if i watched footy, tennis or any sport while dining. :eek:;)
|
Absolutely right. Hopefully it's just bars that have the TVs on of course, restaurants don't usually inflict too much that is irritating - other than billboards that you trip over perhaps, or waiters that stand outside trying to drag you in!:cool:

As usual there are two sides to this, if people didn't want to watch TV the owners wouldn't feel like they needed to put them up, truth is some people like to watch sport when they go out to eat, simple as. I am sure they will come down after the football has finished, anyway you can always sit with you back to them which is what the wife does! luckily :). Anyway back on topic didn't Nadal play well, great performance all tournament?
|
Yes he did and congratulations to him.:D
|
PLEASE don't open that can of worms sws! Bars are for drinks and sport; resturants are for food and talk. I know this discussion could degenerate until it is closed, I just hope good restaurants will remain TV free, the bars can then carry on giving food as well for those who prefer a bit of everything.
:rolleyes: |
Sorry Bella - even Can Joseph had a large TV at the front of the restaurant facing the terrace and road!
|
Totally agree with Bella. If I go out to eat or drink it is to leave the television behind and to have a good social time with whom ever I am with. Personally I can't stand the noise or intrusion of a television in the background but thats my opinion.
That will not change be it for football, tennis or anything else. Many I know will as Bella says, disagree but i'm with her on this one. |

These TVs are for the benefit of the staff as much as the tourists . just look at the support here for Argentina, Uruguay , Chile not to mention Spain. Nobody would turn up for work on footy nights ( wat happened in the UK that Wed afternoon against Slovenia , eh !!!! ) . Sparky , Did you see the huge Argentina Flag drag down the fiesta bunting in the square after the Germany game ??? . And boy didn't realise there were so many Uruguyians here as well, if they win tonight head for the square . It's a brilliant , international event , that many love Yours ( dining on the pavements for the next two nights !!! ) BonysLad :):) |
Yes, well done Rafa! Hope he's enjoying some R & R in Manacor!

OK guys i know i have been guilty of posting off topic on this one as well but the thread really is about Nadal winning Wimbledon. We can still post our views about TV's in restaurants in PP but please start another thread and leave this one for the Wimbledon Champion of 2010.
Thank you for your co-operation.;) |
OK - BL - I get you point BUT does it have to be every bar and restaurant?
The problem is it doesn't end with the match, does it? My husband and son will go on and on taking apart every bit of any match just for the sake of it. SO even when the match is over it goes on for ever. Yeh 4 years multiplied by God knows how many more talking about it lol OH DEAR - I feel the steam from a few ears coming my way lol SORRY Sparky posts passed - point taken |
