Cheers Sharon - thanks for watching. That’s why I do these videos. They get people’s attention & then show them the problems aren’t actually that bad! Some people are just too narrow-minded though & stupid enough to believe what they read about Veronicas. The staff down there are all great & look after each other. Envy’s a great bar! 😁
Shit hole just got back from there. Seen about 100 lads fighting each other men knocked out cold on the floor ... very dangerous place Senegal men don't leave you alone would never vist again hotel was palm beach very dirty place
I live in Datchet in Between Windsor and Heathrow in the UK, and you have dodgy people here too, same in Central London. Everywhere has some sort of crime taking place. I’ve had my Drone up at Veronica’s and had no issues, it’s about being Vigilant, which in this day and age we all have to be. ❤
Thanks guys - i said in the video Susan there’s no denying things go on in Veronicas - but I know it’s not as widespread or as frequent there as is made out on social media. I know quite a lot if people who work there now & we all see the same thing - people leaving there phones & bags everywhere, dropping cash & wallets. Then the next day they’re on facebook eyc claiming they were mugged. 2 phones were left on 1 of the bars the night before St patricks day by 2 young lads. Next day on Facebook, his mum was complaining about how he was mugged by 3 men who took it off him. The cctv clearly showed him leaving the phone on the bar, necking a drink & walking out!! And this happens most nights! Orca is correct unfirtunately. As you prob know, I live in Bournemouth. It’s meant to be the UK’s ‘premier resort’ & a nice upmarket destination. Well after all the stabbings, murders ( 1 guy got literally chopped up before xmas with his parts scattered all over the town) & all the drug issues we have here, I feel much much safer walking through Veronicas at 1 am than i do in my home town. Tim’s experience is totally different to the Veronicas stuff. Those type of pickpockets are scumbags that operate in all holiday resorts the world over. My work colleague was a victim of similar in Florida last month - twice in the same week. It’s rife there too but just doesnt get reported by vloggers or the media. Its just sad that Tenerife seems to get most of the bad press.
Been going there for 20 years plus - on my own, with my ex & in groups. Never had a problem. Like you say - wits about you, don’t flash wads of cash & don’t go out to cause trouble. Its far safer there at 1am than it is down here in Bournemouth!
Hey up Tim. I’ve emailed Siam twice & not heard a carrot so probs just write it off now. Gopro 11 as well! A lesson learnt - i should have kept it strapped round my thick skull! Cheers anyway!
Well done for your dedication in doing this vlog when you were so tired as you certainly need your wits about you at the Veronica’s strip especially that time of night …Great to watch though! Xx👍👍
😆😆 - Anne bailed out on this 1 Patrick so I went solo!😂 I’m gobsmacked that nobody has commented on the disaster I told everyone about! Kev is right - our videos don’t get watched to the end 😂😂
@@COLSPLACE44 of course we always watch til the end Col & know about losing your GoPro at Siam - I didn’t want to add salt to the wound of losing it by mentioning lol xx
@@annemarieelton2069😆😆 - noo i gathered that - i was expecting some stick from certain other quarters 😆 I’ve replaced it now Anne so its all good. Hope youre both feeling bettr x
Thanks Lisa - yea was disappointed about the camera but end of the day it can be replaced & was my own daft fault - i should have kept it strapped to my wooden head!!
Cheers bud - hope youre well - this video was from my last trip - back in UK now but any chance you can drop me a message on insta or fb please ? Cheers. Col 👍👍
I see you are putting your life on the line again . don't like it there day or night xx

Good video col. Veronica’s strip is a no go for me when I’m in las Americas. Don’t feel safe there and there’s too much shenanigans going on
It’s far worse down here in Bournemouth Mike. I’ll do a video here 1 night - much safer in Veronicas, much safer.
Sorry col it definitely not safe tim nearly got mugged today he got them camera and the van details and he was shook up that was in daytime col ❤❤
