YANNIS26:
Do we regular visitors to San Stefanos really fit this description.Whoever wrote this rubbish makes a chav look intelligent.I do not think his type would recognise a COLD MYTHOS if he fell over one.I doubt they sell it in the wine bars he frequents.
Chav
.
 The Chav, or Burberry Trogladyte (to use the correct anthropological phrase), is a subspecies of the human race that has become unfortunately far too common, as they breed like rabbits. These creatures are easily distinguishable; they tend gather in groups in towns, particularly shopping precincts, they talk some kind of bastard dialect of their own devising, the most important words being ‘innit’, 'bruv' and 'bare'. Several variants of this have been identified and most contain elements of black American culture. This is in spite of the fact that there is no evidence that any chav has ever figured out how to cross the Atlantic. They tend to wear Adidas or Nike sports gear with white trainers and have baseball caps - frequently Burberry - permanently welded onto their heads at birth.



 As well as the above traits, chavs somehow manage to completely destroy the concept of Natural Selection. If the world wasn't so messed up chavs would have died out a LONG time ago due to every single one sharing the same degree of extreme retardation. A terrorist attack is being planned on the Stella Artois and White Lightning plants to dump  loads of Digitalis into the supply of each drink so chavs will be exterminating themselves every time they send their mum to go buy their booze.

Me thinks he walks round in Chav coloured glasses! Can't say that I've seen a Chav in San Stef.

Addendum to Yannis's view,
A chav  is a stereotypical prat, a youngish, (seen some in their 50's as well),  person in the United Kingdom.
The typical "chav"—known also as a charver in Yorkshire and North East England—is said to be an aggressive teenager, typically unemployed or of white / mixed race, working class background, who repeatedly engages in anti-social behaviour, such as street drinking, drug abuse and rowdiness, or other forms of juvenile delinquency, or Gang related.

A BBC TV documentary suggested that "chav" culture is an evolution of previous working-class youth subcultures associated with particular commercial clothing styles, such as mods, skinheads and casuals, but I think lack of education, poor parenting, and being clinically thick is nearer the mark!
The widespread use of the "chav" stereotype has come in for some criticism. Some argue that it amounts to simple snobbery and elitism, and that serious social problems such as Anti-Social Behaviour, teenage pregnancy, delinquency and underage drinking in low-income areas are not subjects for derision.

Critics of the term have argued that its users are "neo-snobs", and that its increasing popularity raises questions about how British society deals with social mobility and class.
In a February 2005 article in The Times, Julie Burchill argued that use of the word is a form of "social racism",
and that such "sneering" reveals more about the shortcomings of the "chav-haters" than those of their supposed victims.
Another writer under the pseudonym "El Zimmer", argued along similar lines in a 2007 article in The Guardian. I wonder who that really is??
It seems he is alive and Kicking and still "Sneering" himself, winding up as usual, at normal folk through every medium!! Also as you say - loading the bullets!!

I visited the other San Stefanos NE, last year - my opinion - very pretty, upmarket in some respects, mainly villas and the yacht set,  but not as nice and friendly as the NW version for a good and normal family holiday with a great Beach and lovely local people.
