COVID Numbers Game

Been reading that the Alaior Council is now restricting numbers in the beach car park, along with pedestrian accesses to the beach. Also will move people in busy beach areas to quieter parts. Sounds sensible to me, but I can also see it as a recipe for beach rage. Cala’n Porter getting the same trea...

Re: menorca.info - in English

Cheers, Alan. I am no great Apple lover either and when my (fairly ancient) iPad is ready for the scrap heap, I shall be going Android for my next tablet. David.

Re: menorca.info - in English

Thanks, Alan. Your post has got me there! Your video link is to Goggle Translate (GT), whereas your text refers to the Microsoft variant, but the GT reference made me realise that GT was preinstalled on my phone - so I moved forward with that. The GT help section says that Safari CANNOT be used for ...

menorca.info - in English

I am probably being stupid, but would appreciate guidance. If I access menorca.info on my android phone, I am given the option of reading the articles in English. However, if I access the site on my iPad, I do not see the English version option and I can’t work out how to get it. Okay, I can always ...

Re: Beach

Thanks for the menorca.info suggestion. Have copied a photo from there to my iPad. The ‘cliff’ certainly looks impressive. Now, if I only knew how to attach the image to a post here...

Re: Health form for international arrivals

Subject to the 48 hour bit, I’ve had a go at the form. As often seems to be the case with Spanish forms, it is difficult (for me anyway) to complete it totally accurately. For example, my UK address. There is one section for number and street = obvious. But the next section requires a flat number (I...

Re: It’s quiet around here

Isn’t there meant to be a limit on the number of eating/drinking places? Or, perhaps, that only applies to a conversion to a bar/restaurant from a different use, rather than a sub-division of an existing bar/restaurant unit?

It’s quiet around here

I’m heading home tomorrow after the best part of three weeks October weather at its very best. As usual, things are shutting down and it is very quiet around here - for me, one of the major attractions of Son Bou at this time of year. But this post is really about how quiet this particular Forum has...

Re: Off-Shore Inflatable Thingy

Sad. More time at water parks = less time and money spent at Son Bou.
