I just got in from walking the dogs and I made myself a coffee when I saw your video so that was great timing! I always like to spend a day in Benidorm when I visit that part of Spain with my friends. We always have a great time shopping and exploring but one day is all we need. I’m enjoying following your adventure. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Sylvia it does divide opinion Benidorm doesn't it , we had a good day but you're right one day is probably enough. Martin likes the rural setting more than the towns and we really liked Villajoyosa. Thanks for watching best wishes Helen and Martin

The locals said the tourists weren't back in the numbers yet , but it is very popular especially if you can dodge the stag and hen parties and go into the Old Town. It was a very smart place and very clean we though. Enjoy Margate , thanks for watching best wishes Helen and Martin.

Hi Neil , thanks for watching . We have been in Portugal for a week but before we left it was on average €1.90 a litre , but there is a €0.20 government subsidy which is taken off at the kiosk on payment to subtracted , it’s just how they do it . How long that will be in place for I don’t know. We are back into Northern Spain in a couple of days so we’ll find out if there is any change. Best wishes H and M

Bless Poppy, I bet she’s having the time of her life on that holiday. Was the window in the painting’s hat? I think I saw it but Clare didn’t. I’d never even considered Benidorm before but you guys have actually put it on our radar. Clare said the still photos that you dropped in belong in a magazine or brochure. Was the coffee clip from the Collab video? Great stuff both. Please don’t ever stop doing that sign off it’s brill 😊

Hi guys , Poppy is loving the trip , most of the beaches don't allow Los Perros and Poppy is a Norfolk beach dog so she can't quite understand why she cant run on the sand.. Benidorm Old Town is worth a visit but we preferred Villajoyosa . Thank you Clare for kind comments about my pictures , it's what I love doing and I really like my new camera now I"m understanding it a but better. The window was in the hat well spotted and yes i did pinch a bit of b roll 😂😂
