From the Sur in English (no less):http://www.surinenglish.com/20090826/news/costasol-malaga/embassy-encourages-foreigners-register-200908261054.html
'The British Embassy is encouraging foreign residents to register on their municipal register by informing them of the numerous benefits this entails. While many British expatriates may not be aware of this, officially, all residents in Spain are required by law to register on the 'padrón''.
(Even The Weenie has dropped its usual banality for a moment this week and coincidentally supports registration).
