I've tried to stay quiet, but this takes the biscuit. I don't know who you are, or what your motives for joining EOS are, xJenny, but you seem intent on causing disruption on what is normally a civilized, cordial forum. What the heck is your problem? People come on here to either ask for, or provide information based on their own experiences and knowledge. You don't appear to be asking for any help, but neither are you offering anything useful or helpful. You may own several properties in Spain, but clearly have very little knowledge of the law or how things work here: you claim to frequently spend more than 6 months here, but gladly admit to avoiding registering as a resident & therefore fulfilling your legal tax liabilities - although you say you have your pensions "correct". You don't know what you're talking about, so best to stop making a fool of yourself.
There's a huge difference between a professional, qualified (paid for) translator, and an amateur, volunteer interpreter. If you don't undersand that, you are even more ignorant than your posts so far suggest. Your unwarranted reply to John here is in my opinion very insulting. Anyone who gives their time freely and willingly to help others in any way should be congratulated. If you think they are are foolish for doing so, that's your opinion and you're entitled to it, but if you had any decorum at all, you'd keep it to yourself.
Please, if you have nothing worth saying, say nothing at all.
