Pollensa Prison?
A letter in todays Times may be of interest:
"PRISON LINGO Sir, ........... “alfresco” in Italy is a euphemism for being in jail . In Pollenca, Majorca, there used to be a large lemon tree outside the old town jail. The equivalent euphemism was that anyone incarcerated was described as “picking lemons”. ............................ I J F S Pollenca, Mallorca" Where was the jail and lemon tree? |
Ironic, clinkham, with your user name, that you should raise this subject ..

The prison is in Palma by the side of the Hipodrom, just off the Soller Road.
