I did get over the border Lons but only for a couple of hours. I didn't feel I should impinge on your family holiday - however much you might have welcomed it.

See you down in the Smoke on Friday....

They're certainly entertaining , I spent a couple of hours up on the Rock just watching them playing and interacting with the tourists.

A belated update just to let you all know that I have arrived safely back on the mainland. The flight was fairly uneventful, I didn't manage to get a window seat but the young baby in the row in...

Just checked "Who's Online" and there are three guests and two spiders viewing the Gibraltar Blog. Who are you anonymous people, although you are very welcome, hope you've enjoyed it.

I did think about the Beesleys when I saw it. Don't think i could put up with their moaning about the beer selection in every pub but we could sort out a trip at some stage. Waiting for the flight...

After a bit of a lazy afternoon yesterday (Wednesday) I popped out around 7pm with the intention of having a couple of drinks and trying to turn my remaining Gibraltar pounds into English ones. You...

I don't imagine the Spanish were much better around that time :D

Well I finally made it up the big Rock today, I was on the first cable car up and it wasn't too busy that early. There are some fantasic views from up there and it was interesting to see the extent...

Had a bit of a boozy * afternoon yesterday and went off piste to find some of the small bars that the tourists don't tend to frequent. Of those of note I found a Spanish bar called the El Cortijo...

Are you shore ? Do you think they have a please fasten your lifejackets sign instead of a seatbelt one.

Big queue for the cable car so had a walk around the beautiful Almeda Gardens. Came back...

Beautiful views out across the Bay this bright morning. The port of Algeciras can clearly be seen and the mountains of Africa peeping their heads above the clouds. There is also a massive cruise ship...

Having successfully negotiated the airport runway I follow the hoards into town and head for the Marina to see if there are any dolphin spotting tours going. There are two rival companies running...

So, here's the story of Monday, part 1. Had an earlyish breakfast and a proper shave for the first time in three days, these disposable plastic razors have a habit of removing a couple of layers of...

I resemble those remarks !! I have done the full tourist thing today and will prove it in subsequent posts, which honestly haven't been made up ;)

Did the whole tourist thing today, including getting stupidly sunburnt. So I'm now back in the hotel having stood under a cold shower for 10 minutes and slapped on the aftersun. I have a couple of...

I have to own up to that one. St Vincent is the pseudonym I usually use for travel websites and Millay is the one I use for pub and beer websites. Things can get a bit confusing when I'm travelling...

A quick update on yesterday (Sunday), after I'd been out to the airport to pick up my well travelled suitcase. Just like in the UK, Sunday buses in Gibraltar are few and far between so, now that I...

Please bear with me whilst I hijack this thread with a message for those at work. It's very important as it's about Fantasy Football!

I've set up the RBS Predictors pool in SportGuru which has...

:D:D

Or Barbara Dickson from Evita with "Another Suitcase in Another (Arrivals) Hall". That could be the theme tune for BA's next advert.

As Thin Lizzy might have put it, had they been in my position, "The Bag is Back in Town". Finally I have my suitcase, everything seems to be there but the handle has been broken and my clothes have...

es I've worked out that some of these pubs are connected, I hate to use the phrase 'chain pubs as they are all very different.

In the Star Bar just me and Mamma Dee drinking Mamma Dee's Gibraltar legendary Mamma Dee's JC's mixed by the lady herself. A years old drink formulated for the Navy by Mamma Dee herself, or so she...

After a quick visit to the Cock & Poulet (?) am now back in Casemates Square and have found bottled Fullers beers, Pride, ESB and Honeydew in the most unlikely of places.Cafe Solo is just that a...

Moving on down Waterfront I'm now in the Red Lion, more research, drinking a German lager St Pauli Girl, not sure what the ABV is but it can't be just for girls. Just won £160 on a gaming machine ...

But they are so last year gasman !!!

BTW you need to start posting some more and get rid of that teetotaller tag, it doesn't suit you. Even Lons has made spritzer swallower level ;-)
