What do you call two Spanish firemen?

No I haven’t lost the plot, well at least not yet. Writing a weekly blog related to our fair city of Barcelona can be a little tricky at times. Fortunately, more often than not, there is an event or theme to grab hold of and get the creative juices flowing. But what do you do as an impoverished blogger in the second week in January? Everyone has just gone back to work, broken most of their New Year resolutions and are looking at a bank balance that wouldn’t keep a teenager in download money for a week.

Well I could try lifting the gloom a little with some pretty photos and interesting facts about Barcelona.

It has 9 UNESCO World Heritage Sights, 10 official beaches, 2437 hours of sunshine per year, average monthly temperature of 15° and Portal de l’Àngel is the most walked street in Spain, 3500 people per hour!

May well come in handy at this weeks pub quiz, but equally may well have you head down, asleep in your sandwiches.

Perhaps I could tempt you into planning a visit. Extolling the virtues of spending a few days in Barcelona, one of the Med’s great cities. Las Ramblas, FC Barcelona, La Sagrada Familia, fabulous tapas, amazing festivals and kicking nightlife.

It would help bump my S.E.O. for sure, but the fact is, this is all sitting on my doorstep and you are sitting at least 1 aeroplane, 2 airports and a chunk of salary away, and that might provoke a smidgeon of jealousy and have you reaching for the “un-follow” button.

Maybe a light-hearted look at the inner workings at GoCar Barcelona is the way forward.

How we prep the cars, a picture or two of the interns and how we plan big corporate groups. It will definitely be a hit with the bosses, especially if I mention their names.

But quite frankly all the cool, fun stuff happens out on the road and you can watch a video or read our website for that.

So in a blatant attempt to at least bring a smile to your face before the end of this post, I have plumped for a gag.

What do you call two Spanish firemen? Hose A and Hose B!

See you next week, and I know, stick to the day job.
