Sitges(Latin: Blanca Subur) is a small city about 40 kilometers south west of Barcelona renowned worldwide for its Film Festival and Carnival. Between the hills and the sea, it is known for its much-frequented beaches, nightspots, and historical sites.While the roots of Sitges' artsy reputation date back to the late 19th century, when Catalan painter Santiago Rusiňol took up residence there during the summer, the town really came into its own during the 1960s, when it was the only center for the counterculture on the mainland of Spain (then still under the dictatorship of Francisco Franco), and became known as a sort of "Ibiza in miniature". Today, Sitges can be considered a dynamic cultural oasis, basing its economy on tourism and culture offering more than 4.500 hotel beds, half of them in four-star hotels. The firm commitment for quality infrastructures has converted Sitges into a first-class destination in terms of tourism of congresses, conferences, seminars and company meetings in the Mediterranean area. It is also a gay tourist town and provides a contrast from Barcelona. Mainly in July and August the town is taken over by gay men and women and the streets are packed. In September the gay community disappear and the presence of family tourism can be felt again.
On November 17, 2004 a transvestite by the name of Hulya was working as a sex worker on Baghdad Street in Istanbul. After she had sex with one of her customers, he asked her to do something that she was not willing to do. When she refused to do the act, he threatened her with a gun and said he was a policeman and he would take her to a police station if she did not comply.
I appeared on the obscure radio station Resonance FM with obscure comedian Stewart Lee and the obscured comedian (behind a big beard), Daniel Kitson. It was a giggly couple of hours and it seemed a shame to let it all end there, so at 2pm we went out into Soho looking for lunch.
We chanced across a new Pizza Express restaurant (at least none of us had seen it before) which oddly had a red neon sign declaring its name, rather than the usual blue. We wondered if this restaurant was nothing to do with the popular chain and the owner had found a clever way around the copyright laws. "No, this restaurant is very different to the others. Look the lettering is in red. Not blue. Red. It's a totally different place."
