With Gibraltar been mentioned in the other Thread it reminded me that I caught a bit of a programme last week about the Island....after seeing it I really want to go....it looks cushty and an interesting place for an holiday!!!!

Anyone been....if so what's it like????

Never been, but if I tell you they're going to catch and sell their wild monkeys you probably won't want to go.

Really....are they???? BASTARDS if they are!!!!

I can understood why they are doing it and at least they aren't getting rid of all of them!!!!

Pity we can't have that scheme over here to get rid of the low lifes who vandalise and make people's lives a misery!!!!

Went several years ago on a day trip from Benalmadena and the queues were bad.First the Spanish police come on and you move a few yards and the Peelers come on and check passports.

Sadly Monkeys don't have human rights.

Britain can't even deport immigrant criminals never mind home grown ones.

Worth seeing. Went a few year back. Think Spanish Costas with Marksies in the middle!

People a bit odd like

and the strangest airport known to man

I went in the mid-80s and loved it, although it was very "quirky". It had a Burger King and Pizza Hut about ten years before Hartlepool did, a Top Man and a M&S/BHS too. Strage sat outside The Rose And Crown having a pint of Trophy in 90degree heat!

That sounds like the perfect Holiday!!!!

I've been, as someone else said on a day out from Benalmadena. Parked in the wrong place and the Spanish rozzers towed our hire car away. Had to pay them in pound coins cos we didn't have enough pesetas left. Apart from that it was cushty.

I dunno why people think monkeys are so great, with deference to H'Angus and all that, but they're feral scroungers and can be fucking vicious. They've got claws and teeth that make the most savage dogs look harmless.

And big red bollocks.

I have been about 12 times and was stationed there for 3 months when in the Navy......like Elvis said its a little home from home,except the weather and beaches are a lot better.I would definitely recommend it.

I can't believe i'm reading this. .

Speaking of feral scroungers here's Sussex.

We HUNG a Monkey you stupid fucker, your comment is about as intelligent as one of the many lies in David Hodgson's autobiography.

Hire a jeep /easy rider bike at Malaga airport.. then down to torremolinos,fuengirola,marbella and then onto too Gib...you'll need to cut the arms off your denim jacket if you take the bike mutley.

Me neither. Don't you people communicate in tick-tack??

Why everybody knows you hung a monkey pj..


Pj in screaming fit about Dave Hodgson's autobiography.. wtf's this got do with planning a holiday for mutley you nob ?

Look if you are going to insult me at least spell your chosen insult properly. Is that why you always post 'f' instead of Fuck because the rest of the word is too much of a challenge?

As for Hodgy's autobiography he claimed to have once 'threw bananas' at Pools fans, so the only screaming fit regarding that is raucous laughter and my retort was about on topic as your comment to Mr Spender. Actually given your mental capacity any comment to you in a thread covering Monkeys is by default on topic.

the barbary apes are a tourist attraction but need to be thinned out to keep them under control.They can get very aggressive and are going into the towns.

Aye, they'd probably strip Mutley of his camera ,money and bag in seconds ..not nice.
