About

I thought it might be a good idea to explain what this site is all about.

I lived and worked in Madrid between March 2003 and September 2005. In the summer of 2003, it struck me that the way I kept in touch with friends was by group email, most of which started with the line: "Sorry for the group email, but I will get around to sending individual ones soon."

As you would expect, be it for lack of time, or more probably inclination, I didn't get around to it, and figured that if I was going to send group emails, I might as well recognise the fact, and "Our Man in Madrid" was born. In late 2005, I decided to go global and put it out there for the masses.

So, what you have here is quite a personal view of things that popped into my head when I was in the Spanish capital.

To misquote Bill Bryson, I like it there, more than I can tell you. One day, I'll be back.

Hasta siempre,

Simeon
