Exactly right ! Quite happy to hear Coco Melone !!!!

Will take some photos as suggested and ask for permit if they do bother me with our no massage sign !

Pollensafan is quite right easy problem to solve ! The two who stood by my sunbed on a mat I had down having a really big arguement got shouted at to clear off !

Heres to a peaceful time on the beach

I am playing devils advocate here but i wonder if the authorities do know it's as bad as it seems to be, after all, the locals don't tend to use the beach during the day so they are not affected. I don't think the police/council read this forum and i haven't seen anything on FB, so maybe it is time for those people who are being pestered by them to do as i suggested, take a photo of the offenders and report it to the police. This is the only way i can see to make sure that the authorities do know there is a big problem.

Hi Sparks, Possible I suppose. Re Taking their photos. They are so money orientated (no pun intended) They would probably want to charge you for that as well :)

I'd sooner see a Melon Woman ;)

Think I'll book Pilar for a beauty treatment. Any one that can make me look beautiful would have to be a miracle worker never mind " Amazing ":)

Today as I was texting my daughter on the beach two 'Masaaaaageee' women came up to me. As I had my phone handy I said ' a photo for the police?' and aimed my camera at them. One looked totally confused but the other one posed for the picture!!!! She obviously didn't understand what I meant and thought I actually wanted a photo of them. Uh no thanks :rolleyes:

My friend and I were pestered all afternoon...today has been as bad as I've ever known it. Not sure if it's because we were two females alone as our husbands were playing golf today. Literally every ten minutes someone was asking you if you wanted a flipping massaaaaggggeeeee :mad:

One man was particularly forceful in his approach and I saw him massaging a man's shoulders even though he was saying no and then trying to to touch his wife. He then sat on the sand next to them and the group they were with just being intimidating.

It really is getting beyond a joke now.

Go on to the town hall website, request English and on the left is a link to post complaints. Post your picture and the details of these pests ,if they get enough complaints they'll do something.

Here is the direct link :- Town Hall Pollença.

Thanks Sparky, have not worked out how to put links. will have to look .

What does "population" on the form mean?

I've sent my complaint in early, hope they've gone by time we get there. (I know its wishful thinking!)

This might be a case of they are listening to complaints !!!!

2 Policemen were by Tamerells Bar today and took the oils off one of the Chinese ladies and sent her off the beach !

There were a few around later but not nearly so many as the last few days Even the guys who do the beach beds said there were a lot more around this year than before They are brought up from Palma every day

Our No massage sign is working well !!

So glad it's working for you! Perhaps we can make some laminated ones and give them out as people walk onto the beach!! ;)

Very interesting! I was only asked once today and didn't see any others. Normally at least half a dozen of them constantly walking up and down.

Would be great news if the police were clamping down. Wish they'd take the dirty rags off them as well as the oil! Cannot understand why anyone would want to be wiped down with rag that's been used on god knows how many other people :eek::eek:

Yep, what a great week in the light of news that depressed me more than I can say, (see my El Ancla post). Saw one lady nicked and put in a car and the rest of the week you could count them on one hand, bliss. The odd few that still were around spent most of their time looking out for the police.:)
