Quite honestly, I know nothing here! I've only been here for two weeks and I spent the first weekend in Madrid. Plus I work very long hours! Saturdays included! Shall we try to meet up this week for a glass of wine in the centre?

Hello! I'm moving to Valladolid in next few weeks because I've got job there. And I would like to meet English speakers. I'm not sure if those people in current post are still living there or now, but better to try Cheers, Triin

Just to say welcome to the forum, and I WAS there - but only in passing, at the University sports campus for the Campeonato Nacional de Rugby Base, this past weekend. What a very long way Valladolid is.... tbh my ankles are still swollen as though I'd been on a long-haul flight, the coach trip (not to mention the somewhat over-excited boys) was an experience to say the least.
As to the city - well we saw a few plazas in the centre but then the demonstration put paid to our easy peasy bus ride so all in all I'm not totally looking forward to next year's Campeonato oh, and I didn't hear a word of English spoken in the city............

Well I for one am jealous! You say you've started a job - in what field, can I ask? May be of use to others reading who are seeking work.
