If you have bar-work experience Im sure someone will give you a try.
The bars can be a bit slack until March or so,then things start to pick up.
Forget P.R.it is a soul destroying task,working for washers.
Dont worry about the lingo if you go to the Levante end,cerca calle gerona.
Its one of the few remaining British Colonies!:thumbsup:

Think long and hard before banking on bar work to keep your head above water. From what we saw the benidorm area is having its worst summer in a long time, I mean tourist wise. Numbers are down and probably wont get any better. I met someone the other week who has been there for seven years doing barwork and she said anyone who has a job is hanging on to it, tightly.
