If anything can be more of an obstacle (this time in a literal sense)than the freezing six degrees Celsius and the thankfully, now gone-by rain, it must be the facr that literally half the town is dug up in construction, re-construction and preparation for the various upcoming festivals.
This, as it mainly occurs in the centre along affects us centre-dwellers the most as it makes the bus journeys to yoga and flamenco impossible. In addition to this, walking to university now takes 45 instead of 20 minutes and hearing the lecturer is a real skill due to all the drilling, hammer thumping and water coming out of hose pipes! Got sprayed twice already due to not being careful!
The third rant,is, although inapplicable to the trouser-wearing (or at the very least non micro mini wearing) brunette like myself are the people re-constructing Seville with their piropeo (flirty comments). A few of my acquaintances are already unwilling to pass through the centre due to all the cat-calling and "you so pretty" comments whizzing around. I told them in a most possible well meaning manner to ignore them and felt like advising them if they hear "so pretty" once more, to retort with "unlike yourself"but decided against it as it is not courteous and possibly dangerous. On second thoughts, hair dye and a pair of jeans are a much easier option. LOL
