Fancy to write??


It's been a while since the last time I wrote something here.. Barcelona won the Champions League.. Oh shit!! why did i Have to remember that?? The conservative People’s Party (PP) won the elections almost all spanish cities (another bad new I am afraid) and the famous Spanish Revolution is still there but spanish politicans seem to be blind..
even English and others international newspapers are crying out about
  • how the next prime minister will get the victory because the election will be lost for Socialist, not won for conservative
  • how the media are so manipulative
  • why Scottish Power chairman has pay package doubled
  • why someone like Emilio Botin (Executive Chairman of Spain's Grupo Santander) is more powerfull than those who say they represent the spanish people
  • why police has been continuosly beating protesters because they are asking for stopping the unemployment, corruption and welfare cuts
do you think after all this stuff I still fancy to write something?? as The Economist said "SPAIN will soon be a country for old men"

Anyway.. Summer is coming and my perspective is changing.. I love this time of the year where you always find time for meeting some friends and absorving intercultural exchanges.. I am sure I will be writing again so soon. Now I will let you with some articles I had ready to post.

Weather Alert For Eastern Canaries

 
 
if you are one of those privileged who is enjoying a break time in the islands take care of yourself in the sun, take care not to burn. Sun increases your risk of skin cancer.

The yellow alert, issued by the Met Office this morning for the eastern islands has been raised to orange.

Weathermen say Fuerteventura and Lanzarote can expect temperatures up to 37C today and that all three eastern islands, including Gran Canaria, will see temperatures top 40C by tomorrow.

Thanks Germany for blaming Spain


You has done very well protecting you financial interests.. but what now??
you think your apologies are going to fix the irreparable damage you have caused with no proof

ATTENTION BAR AND RESTAURANT OWNERS!

At least one staff member must speak Spanish.

Yes, maybe you think is unbelieveble but most of resorts bars or even restaurants in spanish coast don't have anyone who speak spanish.. how many english are living in there or how big are the english colonies in the coast??

It has been brought to our attention that in the Cabildo’s Tourism & Planning Department law regulating bars and restaurants, published as decree 90/2010 on July 22 2010, certain minimum conditions are stipulated, and failure to comply could lead to inspectors charging you an on-the-spot fine of up to €3,000.

The decree states quite clearly that you must have staff who speak Spanish. We presume that employing one Spanish speaking member of staff would fulfil this requirement.
