Ok so, last year on a visit to Barcelona I was introduced to something that can only be described as amazing, but yet when you are experiencing it at that exact time the apprehension makes it somewhat different. So basically this Bar if you choose to call it, was an illegal bar in the heart of Barcelona. simply knock on the door pictured and bobs your uncle. We were kicked out in haste if I remember correctly with the owner being slightly paranoid of a bust. With the general nature of this I should probably leave it at this..........Go Galavanting folks, as i'm sure there are many more gems like this to be found.

Get oot on yer bicycle.

This is rarely found in Aberdeen City Centre but if yer willing to drag yer push bike out and work yer wee leggies til yer hearts content, then this can be found only and hour outside Aberdoom.

GET OUTSIDE! 

Charity Cycle
