    i live in a place called telford , we have not seen a good thunderstorm for years now, just one or two claps and its gone very disappointing ,as i and the daughter love a good phenomenon, and could sit and watch it for hours

    Over on Monday 27th for 5 nights in Calvia Beach. Hopefully the weather will be good
  • This is an excellent video Alex!! Thank you for making it so clear that tourists are still very much welcomed by the majority.

    Your weather forecast presentation is worthy of you being a weather lady on screen! So good!

    Hope you have a sunny week!

    Alex! Thanks so much for answering this question about autism. Printing badge out ASAP. So glad you helped!
  • @kuipersmj
    Thank you for the invisible disability information. Sometimes it is hard to get this information.
  • @matthurst5834
    Great information Alex, always up to date with your vlogs… keep up the good work 👍
  • We have been coming to Alcudia every year for about 30 years now staying in Muro beach, we always feel welcomed. We will be there in about 3 weeks and can't wait.
  • Thank you so much for raising disability issues in this and other videos. As someone who has reduced mobility (now using a walker but soon going to use a power wheelchair) and a son with autism, you cover what many ignore and I am so grateful.
  • @amosingh3593
    Ah bless. Hopefully all the issues with Majorca will get sorted soon. Just spent a week in Tenerife. We were very welcome there. No problems. Plus, plenty sunloungers on all the beaches.
  • Very good video. I think the news papers in the UK are blowing it out of proportion. Well done.
  • @Oliver-xb4gr
    Morning to all of the uk viewers
    And morning Alex

    Hi Alex. Got the disabilities badge last week for a trip in August.
    Was in the airport in April and they are advertising the badge at the information desks. Very simple to fill in and print. 👍

    Hi Alex we come very year to Mallorca and love it. We always have a hire car and can only go by our own personal experience. Once we parked in a car park near Old Pollensa going to the Sunday market - when we got back someone has gobbed on the front window of the car - this was just after Brexit. The car we took out in May of this year had really bad deep key scratches on the paint work. So there is a minority of people who do not like tourists on the Island but on the whole people are friendly and we have always felt safe. This would not stop us coming...
  • @emiliaranta3858
    It is very much in the news here in Northern Europe as well. Totally made me feel unwelcome and we changed our plans as a family and are looking for the loveliest holiday in Italy or Greece. It was just too worrying and also wanted to consider the locals and their wishes. I did also think about the tourism money though...
  • @thewallet
    What the feck do the anti tourist people think they're going to do for jobs if there's no tourists? Sure mainland Spain will be fine it has the usual sectors that any country has but the islands have nothing.
  • @tia327
    From a mallorquin to all of you Brits, you are more than welcome to our island as always.
    Don't be afraid of a few stupid graffittis , the bast majority of us feel bless with your choice to coming to Majorca.
    Enjoy your holidays 😊😊😊
  • @TheVigilant109
    Hi Alex. Very useful information. I think newspapers like to sensationalize stories. I'll be over in 4 weeks and have no worries about coming. Best wishes, John
  • Great interview to level things up we was here last week and all the Spanish people we meet was super friendly we will be back
