Manolo Crespo

 

¡What a man!

I've known Manolator since my early days in Spain. One Sunday in summer, he rang our door bell, said he was a friend of José's and had come to Madrid to stay for a few days. He spent the rest of the afternoon moving his stuff into our apartment and when I left the apartment more than a year later... he was still there...
