Lonely in Madrid - 06/14/01 12:50 PM

Hi there,
i have a lot of work in Madrid lately, so i'm there about 2-3 weeks each month. After my appointments i have little to do though, and since i don't know anybody here, i was wondering if there's anybody interested in meeting up to do stuff.

So long,

Ben

Hi Ben: Why don't you join us for our dinner group on June 30 (two weeks from now smile )? For more information on the dinner, you can find it on a thread entitled "Dinner Group in Madrid, Spain." We'd love to have you there... we're going to have drinks and a really cool dinner. Some people joining the dinner live in Madrid, so you can meet some new people that live in the same place as you. I hope that you can come. All the best, roses.

Hey Ben-

May I ask what you do that keeps you in Spain on business so much? (And if your company is hiring?!)

MadridMan: It'd be so cool to get you over to Madrid. Man, sometime you just gotta put the bills on the burner and enjoy life a little bit. And, if you lose your apartment, car, gas and water in the process,then you have just found a new excuse to stay in Madrid and start a new life laugh
I believe that Council Travel has a very good sale right now on plan tickets purchased before June 30 to Madrid for about $447 roundtrip from New York to Madrid. You might want to also check out Air Europa. They have a sale going on right now too, www.air-europa.es Anyway, perhaps oneday I'll get to meet the much talked about MadridMan... wink roses.

Anyone about in Madrid at the moment? I am here on business and would really be on for meeting up and going for drinks, esp during Monday-Thurs!

Martin : Should be in Madrid tomorrow, i am in Barcelona right now. It all depends on the Iberia strike. Will probably have a business dinner tomorrow night though... But we can meet up sometime if you like,

Martin, you mentioned going out Mon-Thurs. I will be in Madrid July 15-18 if you still want to go out. Ben are you around then? I posted an invitation to anyone else on the Food Drink and Entertainment Forum and haven't received a single reply. I guess Monday and Tuesday are slow nights in Madrid.
