visit galicia a quest for a new life in the country skip to content home about video ← older posts local eccentricities posted on march 23, 2018 by paul you may have thought that two forty-somethings giving up well paid careers, selling a perfectly nice house, trading in our fast cars for a battered twelve year old estate car, and decamping to a galician backwater, would make us the local eccentrics. but far from it, we’re the paragon of normality in a sea of oddballs. why do i specifically mention this today...i’ll come onto that later. we’ve known for a while that we have a number of neighbours, mostly male, who would struggle to spell mensa, let alone register an intelligence quotient adequate to become members. i have a strong suspicion that the disproportionate surfeit of these characters is down to an historical reticence to dip even the littlest of toes into the gene pool, and where what was considered as a marriage of diversity was be getting wed to someone who hadn't been brought up under the same roof. there is the local neighbour who is under the care of social services and who is brought two hot meals a day and a daily stipend of eight euros. he waits patiently for his money to arrive and then makes the five kilometre walk into town to spend it on beer and cigarettes before making the return trip (contents unopened) and spend the rest of the day smoking and drinking. he recognises our cars, and if he sees i’m driving he leaps into the road and after forcing me to stop he gets into the passenger seat. we’ve never exchanged a word, but we have an unspoken agreement. i pick him up, and he rocks backwards and forwards in the passenger seat mumbling under his breath and getting increasingly agitated the closer that we get to his house. when he wants me to stop he grunts, then gets out of the vehicle and slams the door shut. it’s a bit of a one way relationship. then there is a guy in the adjacent village with the thickest galician accents which makes him totally unintelligible, even apparently to gallego speakers. he brings us eggs (but only if you’ve an empty box to give him), shouts at us in gallego and then chuckles to himself as he gets back in his car and drives off. when we were having the roof replaced he took it upon himself, as a seventy-five year old of considerable upper body bulk, to climb the scaffolding to talk to the builders. no health and safety here. but today’s missive comes as a result of the exploits of a nearby neighbour who is currently the talk of the town due to his antics earlier in the week. he was walking past the house yesterday while i was sitting out on the patio enjoying a post-work cup of tea, and he looked a little disheveled. i wished him the traditional ‘good day’ expecting a similar retort, but no, he wanted to chat. i use ‘chat’ in the loosest sense of the word as he then proceeded to remove his coat and talk at me for five minutes at machine-gun speed, in gallego. the bits of his soliloquy that i thought i grasped were about ; his father being stung by wasps, his car having broken down, him needing to go to the hospital, and him hurting his leg (which he rolled up his trousers to show me). it was clear that i’d made a terrible decision, he was happily walking past with his eyes down to the road and was oblivious of my existence until my polite greeting. i nodded, and occasionally said ‘yes’, hoping that he wasn’t asking me a question that i’d regret answering in the affirmative to. i could hear amanda sniggering to herself in the house as she left me to flounder before showing some mercy and shouting me in. it turns out that a month or so ago his car caught fire in ribadeo and made the local news. i’d seen him in a courtesy car for a couple of weeks but hadn’t put two and two together. after it was written off he bought another one, probably for a few hundred euros and on monday that broke down and was taken away to a local garage to be repaired. now this neighbour likes to go the seven kilometres into a pontenova for a mid-morning coffee and a chat to his mates and being without a car wasn’t going to stop him. so he fired up his unregistered, untaxed, untested and frankly dangerous three wheeler grass cutter, donned a florescent jacket, and headed off into town. on entering town he drew the interest of a number of motorists, and their mobile phones, and soon the guardia civil were notified. he was apprehended in a local coffee shop, his location given away by his grass cutter being parked in the street outside. his vehicle was confiscated, he was arrested, and after lengthy questioning he was released to walk home. and that is where my badly mistimed pleasantry came in, and why i got blasted with both barrels. it was probably nothing to wasps, hospitals and broken down cars but a full explanation of the circumstances leading to his arrest and seemingly the police brutality which left him with a bandage around his leg. he’s made the regional papers and apparently the national news (telecinco) and has done his little bit to make amanda and i feel all the more normal. the bizarre thing is, i’ve since learnt that his name translates to ‘perfect’. posted in local life | tagged galicia , guardia civil , neighbours , pontenova | 2 comments liñeiras amanda – super sub posted on february 8, 2018 by paul our house is part of a small hamlet of eight disparate houses, in a small village of twenty-two properties, in a small town of eleven parishes, and with a constantly diminishing population of just 2,330 people (down from 4,841 in 1970). one of the main reasons for our decision to move here was to be surrounded by mountains and forest and be remote from the everyday bustle of town life, but also to be part of a small friendly community, and close enough to a town for shops and services. people choose to move to foreign climes for many reasons; the weather, the cost of living, the pace of life, and wanting to experience and enjoy a different culture and way of life. for us it was an element of all of these, but predominantly for a different and slower pace of life so that after nearly thirty years of twelve hour working days we could take a step back from the vicious and destructive circle of work, eat, sleep, repeat. we both believe that it is important to become active members of the local community and i have to admit that amanda has been much better at assimilating than i have. this is probably more thanks to her brilliant command of the spanish language and her ability to make friends. since moving here in 2014 she has; worked in two schools, a local language academy, and for an adult education enterprise; taken a job in a local cake shop; attended courses and events; and, undertaken a few ad-hoc translation works. but her latest ‘community integration’ initiative is the one which makes me the most proud. she is now a fully-fledged amateur footballer, with more than half a dozen games under her belt, for ribadeo fc/sporting pontenova fc combined feminino club de futbol, playing in the segunda grupo 1 of the liga gallega. it was all thanks to a chance conversation eighteen months ago when one of the ‘friday night ladies’ (a group of mums who met for a cheeky glass of wine on a friday night while watching their kids play in the local park) said she wouldn’t be coming next week as she was going football training. after a brief chat, her interest was pricked and she agreed to join the lady, and twenty other local girls and women, who were trying to establish a new football club, the first women’s eleven a side team in lugo. a year of training turned into five-a-side friendly game which they lost 25-1, and which eventually saw a merger with a group from nearby ribadeo (30km away) for depth of squad and to form a side to seek entry into the lowest level of the galician ladies league. two heavy defeats in pre-season friendlies heralded the start of the season, with understandably low expectation from coaches, player
