Village Idiot Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Brit community in Barcelona is great, I personally love them sports bars in Ciutat Vella. Oh I'd not open a sports bar, a nice little place in the vein of Taller de Tapas will do for me and the Mrs. Great place that. Damn, I miss my city.

Keefaz Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 I suppose the point is that it's hard to give a toss about a team you have no real connection with. I remember in Fever Pitch Nick Hornby also adopts Cambridge United (I think) for a time and really took to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a fine restaurant and I've had many a great night in there - drank too much and eaten too little. Damn, I think I'm gonna book me some flights for August.

I tried to take to the New York team when I moved here, went to games and shit, but never got the passion juices flowing. I admit it's hard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember in Fever Pitch Nick Hornby also adopts Cambridge United (I think) for a time and really took to them. Ah I think I know what you mean. For me, from my first match at age 10 at SJP I absolutely loved NUFC. But now I see I'm growing away from the club (and the city for some reason) and although I have a lot of mates that are ST holders and I try to keep up, I just can't seem to muster the same enthusiasm for the club. I can pinpoint this to the exact day my loved started to die - the day SBR was sacked. I remember driving down to Darlington to buy a car and the news broke and it hurt that he was treat in the manner he was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember in Fever Pitch Nick Hornby also adopts Cambridge United (I think) for a time and really took to them. I think if you started going to games and getting to know a few people who were passionate it'd resonate a bit more. On the note of Barca, some bastard tried to knick my suitcase on the way to the aeropuerto. Nice enough city though, cities by the beach/coast always have extra edge for me.

Guest firetotheworks Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 e's massa ka is that right? 'Its too expensive'? I think I said that every day I was in Barcelona. Beautiful city, it was very expensive though imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madrid and Barcelona are terrible for pickpocketing/stealing. They expressly target foreigners too. Got a couple of wallets stolen myself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a rucksack nicked in the train station. It was quite a clever ruse in that they distracted me by one of them going to the bin next to me and pretending to vomit in the most horrific manner I've ever heard.

Gash Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Gaudi's work looks amazing, i'd love to visit one day to see it Just go, man. Flight's about 10p. It's when your there though, innit. One of the most expensive cities in the world to visit i've been told? Also, when i go back to Uni i may go watch Rotherham more, went last season and enjoyed it apart from they had very chavvy fans. They sing "ooo to ooo to be ooo to be a miller" basically "ooo to be a gooner" also play red body white sleeves, it's very Arsenal. Oh and Le Fondre is quality (Hope he doesn't leave) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
