I have a distinct suspicion that certain Aardvarks have been known to trap Barbary Apes having lashed em up to a "Tatties" Dog Burger and barfed it up again in the piaza after a good run ashore down main street!! .........Even to the extent that they "Promise to Love them still in the morning!

Yeah, but how many times have you eaten breakfast in the local Constabularys Office ???? Not the best B&B in Gib. The first time I was a visitor, my best mate, Goldy (RiP) caught a disease of the crustacean kind. Because he was more drunk than I, and grabbed the matress on the floor before I did.

Hi Chris, and a very warm welcome to the Forum..I haven't been to Gib since 1973, but if 'm out there in the future, I'll certainly look you up and beg a coffee..

Have a lot of fun on the Forum, and I hope you find it useful....

Welcome Chris.

I've never even been to Gib, but I'm not gonna let that stop me posting on your thread, and please free free to post on ours

I'm impressed you have a website! It's more than we do, but on the other hand the computer active members of our band are pretty much 24/7 on the forum if they get chance, so no time for anything else internet-related
