nope - some facts showing the good side of Spain (although like many web sites nowadays you have to click to move onto the actual article)


In Spain, productivity per employee has soared by 11.1% since the beginning of 2008, the largest increase among eurozone countries.

I mean the Daily Wail is bad enough, but Bankers blogs ? Give us a break or you'll have us believing in fairies just now.

Just seen an item on the news about how the "bajas" shoot up whe the big romerias are on.

So much so that employers are hiring private detectives to film their staff "swinging the lead".

One long term female employee was sacked, lost the right to the finiquita, as the sacking was found to be justified, and lost 40k in readies..........for a few days flamenco flamenco fiesta fiesta.

Most of all - thanks for the hard work!

No doubt they will, but trying to paper over the cracks doesn't hide the fact that the overall situation is still getting worse.

Meanwhile even more cracks appearing in the Eurozone itself as the increasingly popular blame games continue and now Italy blames Spain for its latest troubles, having already had a go at blaming everybody else.
