When Nelson died his body was first taken to Gibraltar on 28th October 1805.

To preserve his body he was placed in a very large barrel of Brandy.

I have flown into Gib a few times and its quite disconcerting when you look out the window to find out you have run out of runway.....

I went when I was very young and can remember one thing.

Monkeys.

No need to thank me.

They're hilarious. A must see, I should think.

I've been invited to go on a 2 week 'working holiday' cruise next August.  'Working' in that we have to prepare lectures about the places we'll be visiting for the passengers. 

Can you do this whilst inebriated?

Spent an hour on the phone last night with my step-mom (she's the who's asked me along) and luckily she only wants my help finding 'unusual' info. about the place.  She's got all the Wikipedia info., so no need for anything that's already mentioned there.  I won't be doing the lectures.  Delighted to say that's her gig, so I can relax and enjoy the trip.  Just helping her gather the info. on the different places we'll be docked.

My brother came 2nd in the "Top of the Rock" race in 1989 if my memory's correct.

Hope that's unusual enough for you.

What is 'Top of the Rock'?  Is it like a mini marathon or something?

While we're at it...anyone been on MS Independence of the Seas?  That's the wee boat we'll be on.  Just wondering if they hype it up a bit much or if it's really ok?  Kind of feel bad being away for 2 weeks during the summer without the rest of the family, TBH.  I'd have turned the trip down if they hadn't insisted...in-laws too.  Hmmmmm.  Wonder if they're hoping we'll sink?

Gibraltar is not top of the list of places to go for IRA members looking for a spot of R&R.
