    Our final evening in Porto Pollensa before heading home to a dreich Edinburgh.
    Majorcan drivers are the most courteous we have seen anywhere in the world. They all stop for pedestrians waiting to cross the road.
    As opposed to Vietnam where you have to swerve through the traffic or you'd never get anywhere.

    If there are 3 shitter teams than Everton in the Premier League and they stay up I’d be very surprised.

    They're playing like a newly promoted side with their backs to the wall. Terrible.

    From my experience this is a very Spanish thing and a good way to tell locals from tourists because the locals will just carry on walking from the pavement to the crossing and assume the car will stop whereas tourists always stop at the crossing!!

    I see the stupid amounts of time added on to games seem to have died a death with certain refs.
    Saliba has been down at least twice.
    Arsenal took 26 seconds to take a corner.
    5 or 6 subs
    Time Arsenal wasted celebrating their goal.

    Added time 4 minutes.

    The officials really don’t help themselves sometimes.

    Jnr walked towards a crossing in Tenerife and I panicked for a split second but he said “they always stop when we want to cross”
    Sometimes they really have to anchor on to stop in time but they always do.

    So true. Cycling around there is a dream. The roads are in such good condition and then there is the coffee and cake.

    Hope you had a great holiday.
