    This is not between the lakes. The quality of your content is not what it used to be. Focus and stick to specific topics related to Spain.

      Hi Nicola, I think we've endured your "keyboard warrior" comments before, This is our channel, it's called "Between the Lakes" as we named it when we started nearly 4 years ago. You seem to be confusing quality with content. The quality of production is the most consistent thing about this channel. If you don't like the content, you are, of course, free to "not watch it", We don't need you to "advise" us what to do with our own property. We don't get paid for doing this, we do it because we want to and we enjoy it.
      As the episode states, we are out of Schengen days and we can't film in any Schengen country at the moment so we can't be "Between the Lakes" even if we wanted to. Most of our subscribers would prefer us to produce content, on our travels, in other countries, as opposed to not filming at all as this also gives a comparison of different places to Spain.
      We think your comment is extremely rude and we call for others to give their opinions on this matter. Please share your comments on this thread if you have anything to say.....

      Hi Rob, thanks for watching. Yes, some draught Efes is delicious. Unfortunately the price went up yesterday due to an increase in tax on alcohol.....But it can still be bought from around 70ytl. that's about £1.75. All the best, Mike and Yvonne.

      We love Torrevieja and we are very happy there. We would never get bored of fed up with the bars, there are too many to get tired of… and I promise to never get tired and boring like you Martin, lol.

    I'm in Turkey nowadays. Very disappointed with the overpriced and attraction tickets are 2 difference price for native and tourist.
    They just reap of your money and everywhere exaggeration and food quality and quantity also not good.
    Don't come here.

    • @BetweenTheLakes
      @BetweenTheLakes  6 месяцев назад

      Hi Eman, yes, we agree, prices have gone up in Turkey and certain businesses have gotten a little more greedy and are making more money off the tourists, especially some bars and some hotels. But bargains can still be found from the honest businesses like Muco and MyBar who make a modest profit and do not rip off the tourists. I'm sure there will be more but those are the ones we experienced on our short stay. Thanks for watching, all the best Mike and Yvonne.

      Prices in Nth Cyprus have flown through the roof. Your mainland prices are much more competitive. I feel that the majority of businesses here are adding a little extra on to the price increase’s. A lot of food prices are now in line with UK costs and in some cases exceed them. Last week, 1kg of lamb mince cost £20! We no longer eat out as many times as we used to and do a lot more entertaining at home. Good luck.

      @@spikeytop8982 Hi Spikeytop, thanks for watching and for your comment. We feel the same as you; some businesses are adding profit, but some are still good value. We find out where all the good ones are and stick to them. Let those who can afford to use them do so. The problem for them is more and more people are feeling the cost of living pinch and will stop using these rip-off bars and restaurants.All the best, Mike and Yvonne.
