Without a doubt, Barry. Jonesy and Jedi Chris will confirm this. What's so special about it? Arcades Derelict buildings Wasteground Corn and Oil Silos High unemployment Disgruntled ex-dockers Rampant crime Dow Corning Chemical Plant that frequently has accidents menaing everyone within 2 miles has to stay indoors and close their windows Corrupt Councillors (moreso than usual) That last statement isn't libellous- check "Rotten Bouroughs" in Private Eye for a weekly update of the situation :) |

I have a good mind to put you over my knee with dirty words like that!! (stay where you are Meho) I have been back in England for a while, I hate it. The weather needs to be seen/experienced to be believed. How can it be so bad? Whenever you get a satelite image of the place all the low pressure seems to gravitate towards us??? Is this some kind of sick joke? |

he he!! I wouldn't mind living in Spain or France for a while... Good laid back lifestyle, good food, good booze etc. The UK is home though... I like the cynical sense of humour and errr.... the music scene? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
"Good laid back lifestyle" what do you mean? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Shorter hours, less stress... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

If money wasn't an option NYC... If location wasn't an option LA... I actually heard Canada is really nice, maybe Quebec. I want to live by a beach |

|
|
thats not true... is that what you all think of spanish? come on its too simple |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cool yer boots man... I like Spain OK! No offence intended. So what would you say it's like then? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No Nacmat, we don't mean any offence. I know a couple of Spanish programmers on my course and they're very hard working. We're just saying the way of life in France and Spain (Especially in Rural areas) isn't so hectic- the people are generally not as impatient here and as a result tend not to rush. I imagine in office jobs in the large cities it's pretty much as stressful as it is here... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well, Spain is different (they say)! I live in Spain (they say) and the island I live in is called "The Calm Island". Take it easy men! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
to all of you: I wasnt offended, I am calmed ...dont worry... I was just really asking if thats the image we have outside |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and what about "latin lover" stuff? I would preffer that than ppl thinkin I'm a lazy bastard (even when I'm one). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its ok with me... but I think thats not how it is now... maybe we had that imge 50 years ago... but now... well maybe cos of the weather and so... but everything goes really fast here in the city... work work and work. and in the rural areas I dont think its very different from rural areas in other countries anyway I assure you its ok with me, I wasnt mad at all |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well see you, now I m going to take a nap. jaja (not true) |
||||||||

Not really... in fact Barcelona sounds like a really cool place, lots of skate spots and cool bars etc, lots of moroccan hash he he!! Its just when ive been there the atmosphere SEEMS more relaxed and the pace a tad slower. IMO thats a good thing... but its just first impressions. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Madrid and Barcelona are quite fast towns. The place I live is not that fast. And rural areas here, in Mallorca, r so slow they don't move. Like a beautifull place out in the country... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
LOL @ Nacmat :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know what you are talking about... dont worry... I was just trying to search in your thought about spain... I think more or less the same as you |
||||||||
|

I stayed in Estepona for 3 weeks with friends. We smoked a lot of hash, drank nice wine, ate nice food. Superb! AND we went to a rave and saw the Prodigy live which was something else. Havent been to Barc (yet) but i'm sure its pretty hectic. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
good point unabomber... (I like boc) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But you guys DO drive like maniacs no? (When you are not on your backs) (j/k :)) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw unabomber... what does your nick name means? or what does it stand for? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
a lot of hash comes to europe from the north of afrika through Spain even I work as dealer sometimes! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes my friend, we are fucking driving kamikaces .... hehehe... but go to Roma and thats just amazing... real danger of death |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you also kill bulls for supper |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
unabomber is John Kacinsky (bad spell 4 sure), and he is a terrorist (everybody is a terrorist this days) from within the USA. U gotta read his Manifesto! The name became my nick when I was in High School. It's a looooong story. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And not everyone likes bullfights. I personally preffer girlfights. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The hash we get here is SHITE - best avoided. Seems to be made of plasic. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, plant some stuff! |

My aunty and uncle were in Barcelona recently and there were two guys on motorbikes near them. One signaled that they had a puncture so they pulled over. Then the guys pretened to help but robbed them. What they had done was knife their tyre when the traffic stopped. Apparently its a new trick. They told the police who said it couldn't have been Spaniards, must've been Moroccans hehe. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, I've heard that. u gotta be carefull in Barcelona. Specially in the Ramblas. Organized mafias build upon poor immigrants r there workin hard everyday. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I was in Ramblas when I had just arrived and saw some bloke try and take this woman's handbag in midday. She wasn't having any of it though; she pulled it back and was like "fuck off!" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If u pay a bit of attention, or act rude, usually nothing happens 2 u. And as usual, when travelin, try not to look like a tourist. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Don't worry, when I went I wore Bermuda shorts, a Hawain shirt, a camera around my neck, a bum-bag, a baseball cap and carried a map. I know what the fuck. |
