    When I was diagnosed with mouth cancer a few years ago my wife said it's your choice anywhere in the world where would you like to go on a holiday in these uncertain times? Expecting me to say USA Canada or New Zealand I chose Benidorm to her amazement! The whole world and you chose Benidorm was her reply. I just wanted to see all that I had read about good and bad. What a fantastic time we had so underrated such clean beaches we enjoyed it so much we have been back time and time again. Cancer all gone now.

    With the tapas thing, my mum lives in Spain and whenever we go over and eat outside, she puts a small plate with a tiny bit of the food on at the end of the table. That distracts the flies and wasps and keeps them away from your dinner. It does work

    Good Evening Lee. Rather a very relaxing film of one having a mooch through Benidorm old town. We Gentlemen of a certain now, we have been there and done that. It is just really nice to take things easy and slowly. Walk around looking at a few places of interest. Sherry's Bar did look rather inviting. I do remember watching your food reviews there Lee. It would be a must for me, if was looking for a Lovely Restaurant and bar to relax in and people watch. Benidorm is a mixture of all sorts of very Lovely and Welcoming people. You always make me smile Lee. You make Friends where ever you travel to. Such a great place to have a Holiday and Enjoy Life Lee. 😃😃😃😃😎😎👍👍🍺🍺🍺

    When I were a lad, going on holiday to Blackpool with my Grandparents, I always used to go with my Grandad in the morning to the newsagents for his paper, getting a comic in the process.
    Years later, in my teens onwards, I'd go and get the paper for him (usually trying to keep the change!)
    Today, even though he's been gone many a year, the first day of our holiday will see me going out for a paper in memory of him!
    Other than that, rarely read papers now!

    Ignore what insular nationalistic British news media say. Benidorm has everything for every taste from frugal to high end. You can drink yourself silly or go hiking in the hills it's up to you. The benidorm enthusiast's latest vlog is a good response to negative British media reports lately.

      When my cousins invited me to join them on a holiday in Ibiza, I was initially reluctant. I thought it was just for teenagers and 18-30 year olds. I thought I would feel out of place and it was all night clubs and disco bars (is that what the youth call them?).
      Instead I had one of the best holidays ever. Family activities in the morning, archery, target shooting, crazy golf, you name it, and various evening events (not singers, everything from performing parrots to drag acts).
      Then out on the town until 3-4am! Not bad for a middle aged man from Worcestershire 😂

    You REALLY do do a crackin' vid Lee. The music swapping from a Madge mobile/s shot to general walking about is pure class imo. The simple things are always the best. I originally subscribed to your channel for the leccy car input, but now I really enjoy these travel vlogs/vids, whatever you wish to call 'em too. You are now top of my subscriber list you'll be pleased to know, out of 45. You DO brighten my day/s, and even though I've always scorned and sniggered at those that go to Benidorm, I'm now seriously considering it tbh for a winter break. You should be sponsored by their tourist board.🤩

When we arrived on 10th September, we headed for Sherry's Bar and Tom had a Sunday Roast and I went with the Curry Half Rice and Half Chips, and bye eck it was bloody lovely!! Lol, thank you so much for showcasing Sherry's, yes you simply must go back. Also give either India Gate (near Winners) or Nepali Tandoori (behind Hotel Presidente, cheap too) a go. Enjoy your time Lee, take care pal.

    Hi Lee, Great to see you back in good old Benidorm 😁
    There is a lot of mobility scooters yes, The Benidorm limousines 😂
    They’re really cheap, about €30 a week so probably why theres loads 😅
    I have a recommendation for you- Bar Majorca. You’ll find it next to Palm Court apartments, Top of the British square. The food is great, Prices are great too and the couple who own it are British and so nice. They’re Sunday dinners are top notch. They also do breakfasts from all over the UK, Scottish, Northern Ireland etc. definitely a wee hidden gem.
    And yes I remember my dad going out early every morning on holiday and buying a newspaper, Changed days indeed.
    Edit** Yes you’re correct about the tapas, It means lid or cover and the bread was to stop the drinks going off or something 😂

    Lee, when i went to Lanzarote last Feb. There were people who got a 3 month rental in the self catering apartments we were in. Dec/jan/feb. Same reason cheaper than staying home. Also means these complexes can keep staff year round. Win win. There was 40 apartments pool etc. I felt a bit silly going hone to the cold and working. They had it sussed. They did it every year.
