I like your articles, some good points made. Before I go any further, yes I am looking to promote something through your blog, if you dig it then cool, if not, no loss. I'm Irish, living in Barcelona 5 years now, I have an American girlfriend. We are organising a BIG halloween party in a refurbished mansion in Sitges this Halloween which coincidently falls on a saturday night. It's a pretty big production, for 200 people, 60 euros for a ticket, covers coach ride down & back, midnight BBQ, drink for the night, quality dj's, the theme is roaring 20's guys & dolls, prohibition style.
Its gonna be fun. Capacity is 200 people, looking for quality people who enjoy the halloween festivity.
