Leave it out son!!!......I had the best days about a decade before you, Fred Perry, Ben Sherman, Lyle & Scott pullovers, Pork Pie hats, Harrington Jackets, Levis that you sat in the bath with to get them to shrink to your size....you boy's haven't lived!! Another great vlog mate, enjoy Spain with your beautiful lady.

Oh man, now you’ve reminded me of another of MY favourite times too…2Tone! I remember not only shrinking Levi’s but bundling them up with string & bleaching ‘em in a bucket in the garden. Looked wicked with my braces, Fred Perry & loafers! Oh, and stay press trousers 🫶🙌

Still wear my Red Kickers with Red Laces, I'm in my 70's and the 70's when we all wanted a pair. Kenny Everett wore a pair presenting a Brit Award I think it was. I've been to a lot of those places in Morocco, went down with the Magic Bus Company. Woh back in the day.

The thing with Benidorm and I have been there many times although not for about 20 years now, is that you know what you are going to get. The people are lovely, the beaches are lovely, there is every type of shop, restaurant and bar you could ever want and yet you don't need to go far to find the quiet countryside.

The storage is a high lid, Terrafirma Wolf Box…It isn’t 100% waterproof tho as there are a couple of small air vent holes at the top sides but I only chuck things like a hose, straps & other outdoor bits in there. Nothing gets wet as such but I wouldn’t trust anything other than hardy outsidey bits in there. On the other corner, it’s just 2x Front Runner Jerry cans for additional water 🙌
