is the football talk in preparation for the footy thing later on in the year ??
you know, the one where Gib are playing but their "home" matches are actually in Portugal - probably because Spain won't allow them to play any closer to home

And for what ?
A seabird attracting fish farm reef at the end of one of the world's most dangerous runways ?

Flying into Gibraltar is bum-clenchingly difficult enough as it is - descending past the fog enshrouded Rock - without having to listen out for the slap of gannet giblet on turbine blade; meaning your day is going to go downhill very rapidly. Literally.


Vote UKIP, rip out the blocks, get rid of the Europe-loving Gibraltar First Minister Picardo and all friday afternoon traffic jams.

It really is a completely unacceptable price to pay for dumping concrete blocks into disputed waters !

I feel very sad for you really, but unfortunately you have little choice but to accept it and learn live with it.

You've really got your finger on the pulse of this subject haven't you? You've managed to encapsulated all the "important issues and debate changing insights" in one concise post.

what a shame the old Kai Tak airport is now closed - flying in a 747 between the tower blocks of Hong Kong, skimming the radars on the masts of ships
and yet like Gib one of the best safety records, probably because the pilots had to stay awake and do the work instead of leaving it to autopilot and ILS
