BLOGS DE CADIZ...

Tilting at Windmills has now joined the blogs on-line at La Voz de Cádiz whose website has a special Blogs de Cádiz section. Here you will find many excellent blogs, some about Cádiz, some on wider subjects including our good friends at Jimena Pulse and Tio Jimena.

Tilting at Windmills is already amongst the links section of Francisco Rubiales’ Voto en Blanco website – “un blog para ciudadanos libres, para pensadores independientes, no para fanáticos”.

On the right hand section of this website you find our own links section. Apart from Blogs de Cádiz and Voto en Blanco you can also go directly to the Alexander Bewick, Ecologistas en Acción and Greenpeace blog/websites plus Panorama, the on-line newspaper for Gibraltar.

Who said the art of reading was dead! Enjoy!

TILTING AT WINDMILLS

Sancho Panza is much less learned but a good deal saner than his master.

"At this point they came in sight of thirty or forty windmills that are on that plain.

"Fortune," said Don Quixote to his squire, as soon as he had seen them, "is arranging matters for us better than we could have hoped. Look there, friend Sancho Panza, where thirty or more monstrous giants rise up, all of whom I mean to engage in battle and slay, and with whose spoils we shall begin to make our fortunes. For this is righteous warfare, and it is God's good service to sweep so evil a breed from off the face of the earth."

"What giants?" said Sancho Panza.

"Those you see there," answered his master, "with the long arms, and some have them nearly two leagues long."

"Look, your worship,'' said Sancho. "What we see there are not giants but windmills, and what seem to be their arms are the vanes that turned by the wind make the millstone go."

"It is easy to see," replied Don Quixote, "that you are not used to this business of adventures. Those are giants, and if you are afraid, away with you out of here and betake yourself to prayer, while I engage them in fierce and unequal combat."”
