    My Childhood in Spain.

    Good evening, 

    My name is Carles and I am from Valencia, a beautiful town next to the Mediterranean Sea. When I was a boy Spain had a dictator known as Francisco Franco. He had been killing people for around forty years without any problem resistance. Of course I was a boy and I didn’t know anything about him and my childhood looks  felt like a perfect life. My brothers went to the university and played music at home of - Victor Jara and Lluis Llach.
    My neighbourhood was full of children playing football between cars. It was the time of the baby boom in Spain and I had many friends to playing play with, talking talk to and fitting(???). My mother used to bring down a basket with my snack every evening because any  none of us wanted to stop playing.
    My school was terrible with two pictures of fascist men on the wall and a crucifix between them. Our books were garbage and it was really difficult to learn something  things there. My teacher loved pain  hitting? me in on my head and I was so scared when he walked around me. I still remember someone who would beat up with a ruler everybody anybody who opensed his month mouth.
    Sometimes a man coming would come to the street and brought  bring roots of liquorice which we loved biting for hours without any problem. I can remember like a dream people walking on the street who carryied food to the bakery or someone with an ice bar on his shoulder because they he didn’t have a fridge at home.
    At night, if someone didn’t have their home keys, they used to shout “sereno!!” and a man with a uniform arrived whit with the all the keys. It was awful because nobody could sleep waiting for the keeper of the keys. Of course he not only brought keys, but he was a spy who tried to know everything about the neighbourhood.
    On Sunday evenings, we loved to go to the cinema. It was a religious school which showed us a movie ones  once a week. But before the movie, we had to see many ads about the prosperity of Spain and his  its dictator. Everybody loved him and it was like the North Korea government currently. Its name was NODO and nobody can forget the melody.
