Sledgehammer is the man to ask about Madrid alright but I think Gman covered most of it earlier.

For the nightlife just get the metro to Gran Via and you won’t be far from the action. The Bernabau is very impressive but very expensive.

Madrid has nothing on Barca. Nicer town, nicer people, hotter women, better style of football. And a more rounded view of the world, politics and themselves.

Madrid is in Spain.

I would have to disagree with you Kev. I’ve been to both and prefer Madrid

I’ve been to Barca as well so once I come back I will be able to give you the definitive answer on which is better.

Barcelona is a bit of a dump in places. Of course, due to a mister Franco, Madrid got all the money for development, infrastructure and the like. He loved to punish oul Barcelona so he did.

We’ll have to agree to differ, only in Madrid once and Barca a few times, but i think there is no comparision. Madrid is cleaner and all that, but for me Barca has way more character and i found the people in Madrid slightly rude. Maybe thats just a capital city thing.

Barca = “Coke, hash, weed, marijuna???”

Maybe thats just a you thing :smiley:

If you want it ya.

One of the lads on the football team went to Valencia and thought it was a superb place as well. Anyone been?

That La Ramblas is a cunt of a place for cunts begging, robbing, generally pestering you.

I’ve not been but I’ve heard similar

One of the lads I played soccer with went there on placement during college and said it was one of the filthiest holes he’d ever been, the whole place is made up of slums.

Barcelona 101: Don’t go to La Ramblas, especially at night.
The old town is my favourite, down by Santa Maria Del Mar (or de la mar, can’t quite remember)

A fella I know got a blowjob for €2 on La Ramblas

a fella i know got a 3 second blow job just off las ramblas for €40 and his wallet.

Did he blow his load in 3 seconds or did she just stop and take off with his wallet?
