Another totally misleading headline in the Mail. What Palma is actually doing is stopping any new holiday let licences and banning party boats in the bay. The existing 639 tourist apartments carry on as before.

The Mail on Sunday shares ‘10 of the best underrated cities - without the crowds’ today. I don’t think anyone has ever ‘underrated’ gorgeous San Sebastián, even when fighting the crowds for a space in a pintxos bar to order, ahem, a San Miguel 🤦♀️😂

Love the website for La Venencia sherry bar in Madrid, which consists of simply this page: ‘Yes, we’re still open (…and no, we don’t like photos, nor do we take reservations)’
