Doesn’t want to give away sun

Carmen González, rådgiver ved turistsenteret ved Playa del Ingles (Gran Canaria)

– Huh? I do not understand.

– Can you give away your sun to Norway, so that we have your sun?

– Yes... Or wait, I will answer no to that. You must come here.

– But don’t you guys have enough sun?

– For me maybe, but not for you.

– So you will not share sun?

– We can share the sun, but here.

– Can we trade? You can get some snow and we can get some sun? Then the tourists can ski down to the beach, and then lay down and get some sun.

– Can be, would be nice.

– Oslo even has problems getting rid of snow, I’m sure you could get a lot.

– For example, that’s a good idea. Here it snow every two years for two days. Then we go skiing in the Spanish mountains.

– So we can agree that you get all our snow and we get all your sun?

– But if I bring you the sun, you won’t come here.

– Do you think the welfare for students in Norway should offer trips to Gran Canaria?

– Yes, but also students here should go ski.

– Could you write a letter to the Norwegian prime minister Jens Stoltenberg and ask him to join the siesta-arrangement so that Norway also will have siesta?

– Yes.

– So you will do that?

– It’s a good recommendation, but I will not write it.

– You refuse to give Norway your sun, will you evaluate your position after this?

– I do not understand.

– You refuse to give Norway sun. Will you quit your job?

– I try to promote the sun, so no. Because if we give you sun I would have to quit, because then we would have no tourists.
