By The Crazy Guy
The Crazy Guy has two blogs on Eye On Spain, one eponymous and the other about "How to ....." do various things here in Spain.
The Crazy Guy is an alias for Paul Whitelock, which is no real secret.
Paul has several other noms de plume on Eye On Spain, depending on the theme of the blog.
THE CRAZY GUY
The Crazy Guy is known amongst the Spanish people where he lives as "El Loco", largely because, despite his advanced age, he's always active, doing this and that. So, he's "The Crazy Guy".
This blog is about some of the things he's been getting up to lately.
The Crazy Guy (El Loco, according to his fellow villagers) likes to keep busy. He hopes readers of this blog find his experiences interesting.
He has another blog on EOS called "How to .....?" which offers advice on how to do things here in Spain, based on his experiences.
HOW TO ..... ?
This blog is intended to be helpful to English-speaking foreign residents in Spain by explaining "how to ... " do certain things.
The Crazy Guy has lived in Spain full time since 2008. A fluent Spanish-speaker he reckons he knows his way round the bureaucracy, the indifference and sometimes downright rudeness of "funcionarios".
The Crazy Guy is known amongst the Spanish where he lives as "El Loco", largely because, despite his advanced age, he's always on the go, doing this and that. The Crazy Guy hopes his "How to ..." articles will be helpful to others.
ONLY JOE KING
A light-hearted look at life in Andalucía and Spain in general; its good points and its bad. This blog doesn't pull any punches.
Only Joe King didn't really want anybody to know anything about him. That's just gone out of the window, BTW.
He's blogging because he thinks he has valid things to say. He hopes readers appreciate the pun in the name (Only joking!).
MY COVID-19 DIARY - MARCH 2020 TO DATE
The coronavirus pandemic has hit the world hard, with over 120 million global victims.
I am British, married to a German and we live in Andalucía in the Serranía de Ronda.
This blog contains articles i've written since we both caught Covid-19 at the beginning of 2020. It was a weird life of curfews, lockdowns, masks, hand gel, rules and regulations and, for those of us who were affected directly, the vicious after-effects of the virus, long-covid, bereavement and financial ruin.
I started this blog in the aftermath of our personal experiences with the Coronavirus. Hopefully it has run its course, ie both Covid and this blog.
SPANISH MATTERS - A BLOG IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH FOR THOSE LEARNING THE LANGUAGE
This blog is entitled "Spanish Matters", because it does!
Matter, that is.
If you have committed to living in Spain, in my opinion you should also make a commitment to learn some Spanish. Your life will be enhanced.
So this is a blog about matters Spanish, as well as promoting the notion that Spanish does indeed matter.
The blog contains articles in both English and Spanish. I hope it will be helpful to those learning the language.
The name Don Pablo betrays my origins as a former Spanish (and German) teacher in the UK.
This blog will continue to be added to from time to time.

about cultural things: art, music, dance, literature, film and theatre.
The Culture Vulture enjoys the good things in life. These include art, music, dance, film, theatre, and books.
THE CURMUDGEON
The Curmudgeon is a miserable sod. He likes to have a moan. He tackles subjects which many foreigners living in Spain agree with but are too polite to say anything about.
The Curmudgeon is now in his early 70s now and has lived in the Serrania de Ronda since he was 58.
THE HISTORY MAN
This blog co
ntains interesting facts about the history of Spain and things Spanish.
The History Man discovered Spain some 50-odd years ago and he fell in love with the place. He has been resident here for 15 years and takes a keen interest in all things historical, geographical and cultural.
He is blogging because he hopes readers will find what he writes interesting.
THE SPANISH FLY - TRAVELS IN SPAIN AND BEYOND
The Spanish Fly is a nom de plume of Paul Whitelock who first visited Spain at the age of 20. Now more than 50 years later, he has been to most parts of the country, including nine of the 12 islands. He has owned property in Andalucía since 2001 and has lived in the region for the last 15 years. This blog is a travelogue about some of the places he has visited.
