And none of the street lights were working last night. Possibly as a result of the storm & flash floods yesterday.

We are here at the moment. Little beach outside Little Italy had 10 people on today at just after 2:00pm. You could take your pick of tables at lunch time which is unusual. We've just walked through the square to get back home and only Bonys open there at just turned 23:45. Hope it does get busier over the coming weeks for business owners. Fingers crossed.

Default How much money has been lost ?

Even just thinking about the sunbeds (which are extortionate) never mind the bars and restaurants surely the powers that be will have a fright when revenues are at an all time low.
Do they want the local people to suffer loss of income ?

Its all very sad
The First 2 weeks in June were very Quite. dined at the Indian rest on the square twice
on both occasions only two tables taken at 8.30 in the evening the other eating houses very quite. Myra & Myself wont be out as usual this September due to ill health.
Lets hope thing improve for the rest of the season as i will be a very bleak winter for all the business owners in the Port who don't deserve what the government is inflicting on them by driving the tourist's away.We will be back as soon as i am fit to fly.

Do you think it will make any difference for next year? I assume the hotels are full but our of the price range of many If they are selling all inclusive the bars etc around the Port are bound to suffer. Sad times.

We were in PP between 9th & 17th July. The port was heaving with people in the evenings!! Maybe as it was Fiesta week, but certainly very busy!!

We were out last week and the week before. To be honest, I thought it was very busy and I’m glad we are coming back in September when it will be quieter.

It is closing today actually - very sad - we always started our evenings there with G&T and ended them there with a coffee - the best coffee in the resort imho

Just got back from a lovely trip and noticed its got busier since the state schools broke up at the end of last week. Had a few meals out, but also bbq'd at home, which when there are a few of you, saves saves a bundle on going out. Probably more people are doing that a bit more often than in previous years.
