Thank you. Bought back great memories of staying in Gibraltar on our boat...we used to anchor just off the runway-can't do that now! had to keep a lookout when taking the dinghy ashore to make certain there wasn't a plane thundering towards us! Tarifa is a super spot-but a tad windy so wise to wait for the storm to pass. Can I recommend the river Guardiana-the border between Spain and Portugal? There are great villages as you drive up on either side, swimming, manmade beaches and if you get to the town of Mertola- lots of fascinating history. Love watching your adventures with the kids - and we hated the monkeys too.
Left Gibraltar c10 days ago after a good stay but variable weather- on my Morrisons shopping list was bacon and hash browns. Did the Rock by minibus tour as not so keen on cable cars but the macaques (technically not monkeys as no tail) behaved- we could leave bags in the minibus. If you are heading west, Cadiz and especially Seville worth visit and the Columbus museum near Huelva (muelle de las carabelas) will be a good visit for the children (I suggested this to the Rucks and they posted a video on their YT channel). Glad you visited the caves as I wasn’t able to get there on the minibus tour.
Wow, that was an adventure. Sorry for monkey mishap, made me think of that phrase “get the monkey off the Back” 😬😎. Happy birthday to Piper 🎂👍😀. Gibraltar looks worth a visit.
wow ,that was scary ,especially with the children there ,bless you all ,naughty monkeys 🐒 🙈 Happy birthday to piper Hope you all had a fabulous time 🎊🎈🎁🎀
Great vlog guys think you have convinced us to do The Rock although a bit apprehensive about the monkeys!! Following g your lovely family on this epic journey x
Happy birthday Piper. I visited Gibraltar about 25 years ago so different now and the Barbary apes were very friendly no grabbing food of people brought back some happy memories watching this.
Wow you were brave ...the monkeys steal all the time they can be nasty glad your all ok it would put me off for life xxx what an adventure your having love watching your vlogs enjoy xxx
Belated happy birthday Piper, Rick putting milk in first is the correct way when using Bone china it prevents the cup from shattering through thermal shock it doesn't matter if using a mug. Sadly I have found over the years going back to places you will be disappointed by how commercial it has become, problem with the apes is even though there are signs saying don't feed them idiots still do so they can get a photo and eventually the apes expect everyone to have food. You will notice a price difference between UK stores and branches abroad it is due to shipping costs. Stay safe
Being a Yorkshire lad myself, it has to be Yorkshire tea every time 😋😋 happy birthday piper🥳🥳
Yes! You just can't beat it!

5 of you in that van,must be hell!!
Not at all 😀🤗
Omg that was actually really funny. Wouldnt want a monkey on me though, Ive heard they are really bad and not shy.
Definitely not the shy and retiring type!!!
A big happy birthday to Piper!..those monkees are aggressive 😟
Thanks Beverly! They sure were 😳
What are your plans for when the children get older…ie too big for the van…schooling…friends? Thanks!
Great questions, but at the moment it's pretty much no plan 😂
mt sister put the milk in first. im same as you i leave it for a few mins first otherwise it tastes of nothing
Yes Donna! Good to hear it 👍☕️
Unsubscribing. Far too many moans and negative stories topped off with silly catch lines 😢
