Some friends come round for the day and we finally drop them off late at night in La Linea. For some reason they run up and down the beach and want a photograph with all of us in it. Difficult.
This is Gibraltar's answer to the Red Arrows - The Blue Squares perhaps?
So that will be The Beast at the Alameda Gardens' Zoo ...
... follwed by Beauty on top of the Rock.
This is a ferry being turned round before going in for repairs
If Spain is where you go when you have sold your taxi (Jeremy Clarkson), then Puerto Banus is where you
go when you have sold your fleet of taxis. It is Wilmslow by the sea

We have a delightful meal of sardines and wine - mainly wine - served right on the beach front. Spoiled only by an African
Tribe of trinket sellers who have trecked across endless deserts to get to Marbella and will not take "fuck off" for an answer.

The new airport terminal has been specially designed by experts to be a huge parabolic mirror which will really come into its own at 6.00pm on 21st June each year. Anybody at the focal point (in the middle of the queue for the border) will be instantly vapourised. Buy your tickets now from Old Mother Rileys or Herbal Remedies.
