If you've visited the Eye on Spain site over the past few days you may have noticed some changes, or things looking really out of place. If so then make sure you do a hard refresh using "crtl" and F5. Everything should look ok after that.

We're making some changes to incorporate some new features so please bear with us.

In the next few days I'm going to be recording our first podcast with Maria de Castro answering your legal questions. If you have any pressing questions you would like Maria to answer then please submit them here.

Also this week we are launching our new "Poll of the Week". Every week we ask you to vote on a different subject relating to Spain and in each newsletter we publish the results from the previous week's poll and everyones comments. Should make for interesting reading. This week's poll is below.

And finally, enjoy this week's articles and remember to keep sending us your stories. Have a good week.

Saludos

Justin
