Social Life

The Conde Duque Hotel, in Madrid, whose manager is Rubén Dominguez, a great friend, has several meanings to my life. It's a place where I like to have tea and invite my friends and I love to dine there. During the last few years it's gained a great social importance with its award of the Golden Star, which includes giving a first-class level artist's name to one of the hotel's suites.  

Birthday of Rubén Domínguez, manager of the Gran Hotel Conde Duque (Madrid). Great friend and exquisite host, he unites us year after year. In his 40th anniversary (2003).

Rubén Dominguez surrounded by friends. To his left, the ex-mayor of  Madrid, Don José María Álvarez del Manzano, and his charming wife María Eulalia. To his right, the great Paquita Rico, myself holding the wonderful dancer María Rosa's arm, behind the designer Juan Rufete. On his knees, our dear friend and events organizer Gonzalo Presas. A night to be remembered, in October 2003.	I couldn't have been in better company: a great lord of the press, Don Josémi Rodríguez Sieiro and the lovely Duchess of Fernandina.
