He's probably somewhere else - I mean why would anyone who does live in Barcelona willingly go into Ramblas in the summer?
I expect it was all tourists there

Freso would also vote for outlawing motor vehicles in city centers, but has been willing to vote for this even before this current craze of driving trucks and vans into people
ruaok
Fiestas de Gràcia is apparently cancelled for today
Freso
I wonder if I should report to the Danish embassy about my status, as I reported to them that I'm here, which was apparently for, among other things, situations such as this. :|
ZaphodBeeblebrox
+1 about van banning
:D
ruaok
I would give the danish embassy a break. I bet all embassies in BCN are a total clusterfuck right now
LordSputnik
Good to hear you guys in BCN are safe
ruaok
LordSputnik: :)

«Kontakt pårørende, hvis du er ok. Kontakt UM +4533921112 hvis i nød» - "contact acquaintances if you're okay, contact the ministry if in emergency"
So I guess I'll not contact them for now.

ZaphodBeeblebrox is the bearer of bad news :(
ZaphodBeeblebrox: I spent an hour writing back and forth with them early, doesn't seem like there are any news from their side since. I'll look at it again tomorrow if there's anything new to look at.
*earlier
ZaphodBeeblebrox
oh I don't really see any writing y you there on the edit. I saw your reply o the community posts
Freso
No; I took it to e-mail since it was no longer relevant to the specific e-mail and since they started accusing another MB member of misbehaviour.
Eh. *to the specific edit
ZaphodBeeblebrox
ah
ok
Freso
I should have maybe said so in the edit. Ah well. 🤷🏼
looks like they are on the trail of the perpetrator.
1 dead, 30 hurt.
Freso
CatQuest: I didn't tell you not to reply or that your reply was wrong, just that I also replied. It shouldn't hurt that they're getting told basically the same thing from different people independent of each other.
