The Crazy Guy

The Crazy Guy I'm known amongst the Spanish where I live as "El Loco", largely because, despite my advanced age, I'm always active, doing this and that. So, I'm "The Crazy Guy". This blog is about some of the things I've been getting up to lately.

Watch out!

I've discovered some great wristwatches for sale cheaply in Supeco, the yellow supermarket chain which belongs to Carrefour.

They're such good value that I've bought several in different colours and am basing my new-found "sartorial look" around these watches.

They cost a mere 7,90 euros.

 

What's the reaction?

My "lovely Rita" thinks I'm nuts, but that's normal. So I've got a turquoise watch; a darker green one; a pale pink one and a darker pink also; and a white one.

What I think has tipped Rita "over the top" is me painting my toenails to match!


 

 

But that makes sense. I have toenail fungus which turns my nails black and is ugly. They are too far gone to be curable, so I go to a podologo (chiropodist) every couple of months and he cuts the nails back and grinds the ridges off.

By the way, I know a couple of other men - without fungus - who paint their toenails. Spaniards. They're not "gay", maybe metrosexuals, but they like it. So do I.

I'm "The Crazy Guy", after all.
