  1. I’d love to know what these new projects these are? They have not finished (or even started) past projects yet.

    There is still a vacant lot where the Flamenco museum and centre was supposed to be built and the Jerez Archaeological museum, with all it’s Phoenician treasures, was closed for “reformas” 5 years ago and there’s no sign of it opening again any time soon.

  2. Isn’t the town council bankrupt?

    With no Ryanair flights this winter from the Stansted and the flights to Seville arriving too late for the last train/bus to Jerez in the evening, they have a problem.
