Spanair recent experiences?

There are some excellent domestic fares on Spanair at the moment, which you can now buy outside of Spain. (Incidentally, combined with a bmi webfare, the bargain Spanair flights mean that my forthcoming LHR-MAD-AGP trip is cheaper than the cheapest 6am LTN-AGP charter flight I could find! ... and I get miles, alcohol, *G lounge access, and a free stopover to party with friends in MAD)

So I wondered if anyone had any recent experiences on Spanair. [b]deneru[b] had some good tips on lounges, for example. But can anybody shed any more light on...

(1) Lounges - are they nice? Everywhere, or just MAD/BCN? Any problems with *G access?

(2) Inflight - is there food or drink on the Spanish trunk routes, as there might be on an equivalent domestic in the UK or Germany?

(3) Punctuality - I have heard horror stories, although these tend to be their charter flights. How bad is it?
