Thank you for that! But I did see you didn't include this gem we found in Soller............Yes it is a vending machine that sells live worms

You get them round our way as well (Isla Canela, that is, not Essex). There are also loads of sihns around for Cebo Vivo - for a while I thought it was a brand of beer!!

I'll remember to include it on the 'fishing' page! Or perhaps the gourmet section.

There by the grace of God Just seen this, we planned to be in Andratx when this hit, We stayed in Palma because the weather was bad but not as bad as where we were headed.

RIP 1 guy died in this trying to save his boat.

This is the aftermath

Thank god you stayed where you were Paul!

We were hit with something similar last week and a french couple and their dog had to be rescued from their yacht. It was sad to see their possesions scattered around the beach...tho' some photo albums had been saved and put in the sun to dry. Nothing was left of their boat though.

I'm so sorry to hear someone lost their life.
