As some of you may know, I´m a bit of a complainer sometimes and love to go on about Andlausians being clannish,conservative, unreliable, silly, etc (which is ture to an extent) but one thing I absoutyl cannot deny is that they are freakingly FUNNY and upbeat. I witness a third strike this week (which left half the town blocked and myself barly able to get to my flamenco class) complete with chants, timpani drums, banners and hundreds of people! The follwoing conversation took place behind one such scene in a tiny bar. I went in for a quick slurp of 78% coca hot chocolate to warm up and wake up before class.
Bartender: Ojala que se acabe este jaleo con el paro y todo. (God help us, this mess with the strikes and all ends for once)
Me: (teasingly): I thought you were atheist lol (like 78% of Spaniards are according to the latest survey)
Bartender (deadpan I had enoguh of everything tone): I AM but if (jikingly) anyone will help us get out of thsi mess, it SURE won´t be the Government.
Me: ROFL
