Well the debate rumbles on... do we put a caravan in Barrio Central? We're steering clear of cars and motorcycles (excuse the pun), we're not an American diner. How about a plane wreck in the Amazon jungle... and re-enact scenes out of the last series of 'Lost'? Why not a Tube carriage... it's going to be placed in the basement anyway... A packed carriage is the last place you'd want to drink after work!
We're trying to think outside the caravan, hence 'The Launderette' idea... and Dtwo Design have proposed a nice picnic area in 'The Woods' with a seating area 'outside' the caravan and an awning providing shelter from the elements... hmmm
Well, you can have a chuckle at some video footage of when the caravan at Barrio North arrive on Essex Road and was squeeezed through the doors!

bar·ri·o \ˈbär-ē-ō, ˈba-rē-ō\
[ n. pl. bar·ri·os ]
1. An urban district or quarter in a Spanish-speaking country.
2. A chiefly Spanish-speaking community or neighborhood in a city e.g. El Barrio, Spanish Harlem, NYC.
3. Where like minded individuals gather to sip cocktails, shoot tequila and booty shake to ghetto beats.
A barrio is more than a neighbourhood. It is a collection of neighbourhoods, like the developments of a modern city, but is not a development.
It's more in the tradition of the 'French Quartier', in which the common traits defining the place and distinguishing it from others come from the inside, from the soul of the barrio, and not by the frontiers established by developers or officials.
