No worries, Bundesbank hardcore Weber and fellow buddy Trichet have everything under control...:mad:
 
I was in the Marbella area the other week. Designer shops were dead, not a single customer in sight. Every now and then you'd see the odd botox MILF with fake boobs window shopping, but otherwise ultra dead.

Easy to get seaside restaurant spots as well. Heard very few English voices, no Russian at all. Mostly Spanish. Tourism took a huge hit.
