I read today on the newspapers that the bus stop girls are requesting compensation for the works on the area. They say the bus will take even longer to come and they will lose money!!!.

Looks like being evicted from my studio in Lavapies actually is a blessing in disguise. (Even though the workers swiped my $800 studio easel, ouch!) I passed through PdS just about every day, or else Grand Via, a close second.

This sounds like someone's brother-in-law is going to become filthy rich(er), probably someone with connections in the PP. It¡s "business as usual."

By the way if anyone wants to read a really good book on the history of Spain, get "The Story of Spain," (by Mark Williams, Malaga: Santana Books, 2000) it is compact and extremely well written.

Saludos to all the regulars on the board!

OOOOooopppsss... Poor "nurses of love." They shouldn't be evicted from their bus station!!

They are as classical in Calle Montera as chocolate con churros in the whole Madrid.

There should be a general strike in Madrid to avoid this huge damage to the socio-cultural scene of the capital.

By the way... who needs another hole in Madrid??? Hmmm SORRY!! I may be misunderstood. LOL.

I think it's funny as hell!!
