The rain in Spain.......

Gavin, 29 March 04

I haven’t exactly chosen the best time for a short break in Spain – I might not have expected it to be ‘scorchio’ in March but the headlines from the Costa Del Sol tell the story: Zona catastr�fica.

Up in Barcelona it is really just a bit damp – nothing that Cumbrian or Caithness folk could complain about at this time of year. But it�s given me an excuse to head into an EasyInternet cafe. Was suprised that I am able to download and run Mozilla Firefox on the machines. They seem to allow any executables to be downloaded and have full access to the net for that session, with the machines scrubbed back to a basic Windows 98 configuration every time a user logs out.
