Mallorca Easter Weather

Yep, just noticed that. Oh well I have a couple of boat jobs to do then I'll be in the pub I would think
 
Windy last week in Sant Carles but better over the weekend and yesterday. Windy ish again today but only 15 knits then dropping off for the rest of the week. Home on Saturday so hopefully will avoid the egenral aviation strike
 
Just cancelled car hire and car parking from Thursday to Tuesday as the weather in sunny Kent is forecast to be warmer and drier than SCM ... That said we had unbroken sun at the end of March, so we have had our first fix of sun for the summer ....
 
Just arrived in mallorca, its pretty breezy right now by the Malgrats Islands, and the forecast is for it to get worse. I don't think I'll be doing any boating this weekend.
 
The reports I've read say the strikes will begin on Sunday and last for 4 days, so thatll bugger up most people's (and mine) homeward leg

Alas I meant it wasn’t one profession but a universal aviation strike (rather than general aviation in the biz jet meaning).
Looks like now it’s limited to 60,000 ground handling and ops staff walking out, where as before it was rumoured controllers, pilots and security staff were also going to wade in

Not that this improves things: no ground handling staff and you don’t go.

R U sure?
If you would have a bizjet waiting for you, more than likely you should just use it to "go back and sit around listening to people talking about mezzanine financing and subordinated debt, pretending that you care about dead money". Now, guess who am I quoting? :rolleyes:
Much better not having to go back at all, imho... :cool:

But the alternative is waiting to board surrounded by hen and stag parties on their way to Benidorm. Most of whom will already have downed a few pints in the bar!

I wish. Sadly it's 'commercial' and I'll be sitting in Alicante airport with thousands of others watching the sun come out having spent 5 days on my boat in the rain!

Just one of the benefits of keeping a boat in the Med.......whilst we bask in glorious Easter weather here in the UK lol!!

Point taken.
But still, it's worth keeping in mind Edward's statement above (and its context), when thinking that having a bizjet is a bed of roses... :rolleyes:
 
Good Friday update from Cala D’Or - it’s bloody miserable here! Woke up to rain this morning and it’s not really improved since - thick cloud and windy - the sea stare at the entrance to Cala D’Or has to be seen to be believed!

We are sat in our apartment with the heating on and windows shut listening to people on BBC Radio 2 taking about arranging bbqs.

Happy Days
