Am off there in a few weeks, doing a week for work. Any urbanites been there and can recommend fun stuff to do in the evening (am going to be on my own :( )

I like good food and art/music - (punk/alt). History and general sightseeing.


If there's any Urbs there maybe fancy meeting for Tapas and Wine.

Yeah - my recommendation would be to find a decent restaurant/tapas bar and stuff yourself..

We managed to find a trashy disco the other side of the river.. but not particularly worth the effort.

I fucking hate the place.

:)


Although, I have to go back soon for business reasons. May even go this weekend.

There is a bar/club I went into after bumping into a group of English translators working there. That would have been much better if I hadn't been in such a foul mood after being robbed. The owners tried it on with me. So I left. I didn't like Seville. Seville didn't like me.

Sorry. Not much use. Try asking Chooch.

Word. I got robbed last night. Went to the bog and my bag had gone. Stupid stupid stupid. Then got chucked out the bar when I started asking where it had gone. Fuckers. Booked a flight tomorrow out of here. Not coming back.
What happened to fucking honesty?
INsurance claim for wallet, sunglasses, ipod and a small amount of money.
Fucking dicks man.

Exactly the way I felt. Even my first impressions were that it was a very false and ostentatious place in many ways. I have to go back at some time soon and I'm making all sorts of excuses for not bothering.

Granada is a far nicer city. Not all about money. Although, there are a few wronguns here of course and leaving bags unattended is as good as saying 'take it for free please'.

I remember it a bit more clearly now. Was in small tapas bodega, drinking red wine and eating tapas. was a bit pissed. Went to toilet, came back and my bag was gone. Well there was very few people in there and all seemed friendly enogugh. So asked where my bag was. Some fucker was being all smirky and i knew it was him. So got in his face and asked him to give it back. Fucking bar man threw me out. Decided it was a lost cause and fucked off back to my hotel.
was quite pissed and had to get reception to pay my taxi. I feel really dumb, made a tit out of myself. Am hungover to fuck and missed my conference.

Lessons learned. Don't drink when you are depressed about something. Don't get pissed on business trips when you are on your own and don't speak the language.
