I get up pretty early after a restless night of kip on the Willerby 99 Sofa - The old foot isnt too clever but I dont think it's broken as there was no massive swelling - The only trouble is gee wizz is that I'll be wasting my time in Seville away - I'm not going to risk walking on it and opt for a day of Paracetamols and catching up on the blog - Grant's probalby happy to see the back of me for the day after the amount of moaning I did yesterday. So I take it e...

As mentioned, the only reason we had stayed in this part of Madrid was because we knew the Subway station and how to get around from there - and yes they prompty shut it down on our arrival - so was a waste of time staying there - We get up early and decide we may as well just walk to the main Railway Station, which actually Richard, turned out to be not a bad decision as we managed to take in a bit of the nice cultural things in Madrid, the Architecture around t...

Up fairly early and head to the Metro to get to the railway station for the next leg. I should say a bit abut the Metro in Madrid, it's very good, clean, new and on time.

Considering though, that the Spanish Inquisition orginated here, if I was a local I'd still be hedging my bets as well. There's been plenty of skulldu...

It's a chilly windy day in Sunny Wales and we're heading to Bristol airport to fly to Seville in Spain. It's our 25th Wedding Anniversary in a couple of days....all them years ago it was...... and what better way to celeberate than to head for some pucka Spanish Culture. This will be our first time to mainland Spain and we're looking forward to it, the pictures we've seen online look very good and we cant wait to see it first hand. First off we've got to get to B...
