- Thank you very much!
I too live in Spain in the region of catalunya (lets not open up that can of worms) and have done for the last 24 years and have thoroughly enjoyed your podcast throughout these seismic days. I recognised many of the themes such as the love of ‘burocracia’ and often had a chuckle to myself as you gave your slant on them. I wish you and your partner all the best in the ‘Nueva normalidad’ and thank you for taking the time to put together your podcast.

Spain5 years ago - A Breath of Fresh Air
I love this and look forward to my daily dose with my first cup of tea of the day.
It gives one an insight into the joys, trials, tribulations and wonderment of Brits establishing themselves in Spain, and embracing a Spanish lifestyle far from the madding crowd.

Well worth listening to. Keep them coming James
Apple Podcasts5regencyhouseUnited Kingdom9 years ago - A secret tour guide
It's like an old friend is letting you in on the secret Spain that the average guide book or package holiday will miss. Witty and insightful observation. The odd rude language does not offend but makes you more amused at James' occasional temper with the more exasperating Spanish practices. Looking forward to the rest of the series.
