A BRITISH expat has gone missing on Spain’s Costa del Sol. 

Glyn Jones, 83, has not been seen at or near his home in Mijas since Sunday. 

The Welshman has lived in the area with his wife Barbara for 15 years. 

“Glyn has dementia and has recently started to get confused,” Barbara said. 

A friend told the Olive Press: “Glyn has a strong Welsh accent, is a bit of a cheeky old bugger and a very kind and funny man.

Glyn and Barbara have lived just opposite the town hall in Mijas for 15 years

“He is approximately 5’7”, silver hair with a cheeky smile.

“His family are at their wit’s end with worry and the Police have categorised Glyn as a Missing Person.”

The friend added: “He is a really lovely man and is much loved, we really need your help. 

“Please share this!”

If you see Glyn please call Barbara Jones immediately on +34952591077
