3 sections.. first one is set at 13c. where you have the cakes etc.... But also the heaviest part with the bananas, pototoes etc.... second one is set 5c, the biggest part, where everything that goes into a fridge come in... third part is the freezer, set at -21c. well it's a ****ing freezer.
One of my clients when I worked with one of the "Big 4" was Martin Brower... they were (and probably still are) the worldwide distributors for Mucky D's... anyway they lost one of their distribution centres in Hemel Hempstead when Buncefield exploded so they built a brand new state of the art one also in Hemel. Gave us a tour and the female student I took along had specs. The distribution centre is divided into 3 bits, ambient, chilled and frozen. The frozen bit is a huge fridge with fork lifts driving around in it ... we passed through there before going into the chilled bit ... turned round to see the student stumbling around blindly coz her specs had completely frozen up. Apparently the operatives are only allowed to spend shifts of 30 mins in the fridge because if is so ****ing cold.
Red Red Wine mate ... actually just a couple of cold cans of Bud ... we are off to France at 4 in the ****ing morning
No ffs, the frozen bit is not chilled, it's a freezer, the name gives it away. Who sets their fridge at -21c? Chilled is approx 4-5c.
I did, you said the frozen bit is a huge fridge. I'll ask again, what fridge is set at -21c? Look at the temp on your fridge, it will be, or should be between 3-5c.
Yep...lovely city. But you don’t go there this time of year, the temperatures can hit 40c+ Spring or Autumn is best.
Right, I will cross that off my list then for now. I have got an old friend i could look up in Madrid, i really ought to contact him sometime, I see it takes 3 hours from Seville on the train. As you have said it looks a lovely City, hence why it caught my attention, although I'd need to learn some Spanish before I go, expect i could crash course it with my Italian knowledge. Amazing how similar some words are, I looked up days of the week as a basic example; lunedì Monday. martedì Tuesday. mercoledì Wednesday. giovedì Thursday. venerdì Friday. sabato. Saturday. domenica. Sunday. lunes. Monday. martes. Tuesday. miércoles. Wednesday. jueves. Thursday. viernes. Friday. sábado. Saturday. domingo. Sunday. So basically you are just removing the 'di' and adding an 's' in it's simple form.
Most Italians understand Spanish, and I imagine vice versa. You just need to remember about the Spanish silent H. So Jueves is pronounce “way-ves” About 140 kms away is Córdoba, another ancient Spanish city that goes back to Roman times.
Looks a must do place for the future for sure. In a translator it sounds like 'que-ves' to me...my hearing must be fooked because their written translation agrees in the first bit with yours... https://ielanguages.com/spanish-days.html But those days would be so easy for me to remember or at least understand in the spoken word, so you are right about Italians understanding Spanish.
The J is pronounced like an H. So ‘hu-e-ves’ comes out of a Spanish mouth sounding like Way-ves As Archer’s says, Córdoba is a beautiful city also. La Mezquita, the Mosque/Cathedral is a must see. And the old Jewish quarter.
Will put it on my mental to do list. The silent H is a pain in Italian too. Example being Ho (I have) / o (or) then you have Hanno (they have) / anno (year).
It’s an easy drive if you hire a car for a day or two. In the other direction both Jerez and Cadiz are within easy reach too.
Wonderful city. As others have said, avoid July and August. Not only is it hot, it is very crowded. It is also heaving at Easter for the Semana Santa processions. If you like archaeology there are Roman sites at Itálica and Carmona. As I point out to any Brits going there, although I am sure this doesn’t apply to you brb, don’t get drunk in public and don’t act like an ****hole. It could end badly for you and spoil your enjoyment of a truly vibrant and exciting city.
