Myself and our lass (Yorkshire for my girlfriend). Are looking at going to portugal this easter, can anyone recommend any good dojo's in Portugal & Spain.

We are both willing to travel. But will be staying in Faro (I think) So anywhere near there would be helpfull.

Hello GMason.

There are something like two or three dojos at Portugal, I have practiced with some of the kendokas from there in a seminar in Madrid, nice people.

The only dojos that I know in southern Spain are in Granada and Ceuta, both of them far from Portugal, but I have heard that there is also one in Sevilla.

You can send an e-mail to apkendo@kendo.pt, or go looking at www.kendo.pt.

Thanks for the reply.

I will hopefully be over there in the next few months.

Is there a Spanish Association website. I had a quick search but couldn't find one.

Thanks again

I know this is off topic but I can't get it out of my head.

Whenever you post, GMason, I get an American commercial in my head. It's a company that delivers office supplies like copy paper and stuff like that. It always ends with a close up shot of the delivery man who looks like he grew up in the 20's and his delivery truck and ends with the TV anouncer voice saying:

"Who else, but W. B. Mason?"

Sorry for the tangent, just had to get that out of my head, I will see my shrink now...

Well I don't know what to say really..... It's not me honest :D

Not unless he's charasmatic, charming, rich English gentleman. Then it could be me but I doubt it.

There's not many of us left in the world you know :D

On the other hand it could just be an advert that has nothing to do with me at all, and you are just a strange person :D :D :D

Sorry only joking (I hate the internet you never know if people will take offense if I take the piss, but hey I'm only joking)

I only take the piss if I need to use the mens room. Sorry, it's early...

No offense taken, strange person is pretty close to the mark anyway. :)

We now return this thread to it's original programming...

Sometimes those threads con go REALLY away from subject... (shaking head).

The Spanish Kendo Association is a part of the S. Judo Asociation, unfortunatly their web pages is not very interesting...

You will find more info on Kendo in Spain in my club web page: http:\\www.kenwakay.org.
