The situation down here in the south is not too different from that in the north east. I would refer you to this article in El Pais (the english language version):
get off your backside and go and visit all the local companies then.
Thanks Vas
That just the sort of answer i would expect from you after reading some of your posts,some of us do actually go to all the transport companies and leave cv’s,all i wanted to know if any of you drivers who are working have heard if any company has started to pick up more work
Cheers

it´s the method that got me every job I went after which means it works, I get about 30 CV´s mailed to me every week, don´t even look at them they go straight to the bottom of the pile, someone who moves their backside and comes in and gives it to me if I like the look of them it goes to the top of pile because at least they have the get up and go to come and see me rather than just mail a CV.
Simples just the fact of life and every other TM I speak to says exactly the same, but then again with you being so vastly superior and dismissing the advice as “what you would expect from me” I am sure you will soon find your dream job

I dont know about picking up more work, most Spanish hauliers are struggling to hang on to what little they have left as well as trying to keep the job in the black amidst ever increasing costs and diminishing rates.
If it is any help, a friend of mine is an owner driver near la romana (alicante area) he transports marble blocks to the docks, its crap money but enough to get by, there is plenty of work doing this. If you are interested pm me and I will pass on his details
