Buenos dias
I know, it's not the happiest of subject lines but it's not really been a good week in "Spain World".
Most of you will be familiar with the recent demolition of the Prior's house in
Vera, Almeria. The lead article this week is on this very topic which has
really angered many people, expats and Spanish alike.
Before we move into this week's articles I just wanted to let any petrol-heads out
there know that on 1st of February there is another trackday in Guadix. I'm
going to be there as it's such great fun. If you're interested in coming along
you can read more info here:
