Gibraltar (Accidents of History Tour 1989-2009)



Marbella - in the winter



First view of the Rock (we were diverted to Malaga)




I ran (nearly) all the way up - 32 minutes from sea to summit at O'Hara's Battery





The peninsula is FULL of unsold Toyotas - all white, all about 6 months old - very sad.










My hotel - the Eliot



Cadbury Delivery man - we had a little chat



12:30 - 22 degrees, sunny T-shirt weather...




20:30 - 0 degrees and snow!

The album is here

It was a fix!



Once more to the Harlequins Club Champs - and as usual there was the raffle in aid of the air ambulance...

(It was very nice - toasted with some crumbly Lancashire cheese and a bit of Branston)

A Sign!



A sign in the heavens! (or evidence of a possible near miss!)
