I agree with all of the above. So much so, I moved here. Each member of the family who come to visit for the first time fall in love with PP and can't wait to return. Shame really, as I came here to escape 'em! :D

lol@barefoot

We have wondered about going somewhere else then when it comes down to it never book as we don't want to risk it :) So I completely agree with everyone else as I don't want to spend my precious week away wishing I was in PP...
But and it is a big BUT this year - the apartment we go to is up for sale and we may just use this as the catalyst to try something different next year. :(
Anyway 3 weeks tonight I will be on my way to our favourite place :D

How wonderful to hear all this positive talk and realize there are lots and lots of people who are ppaholics! Its not a new virus, been around for ages in fact but people did not like to talk about it too much, I first got it 26years ago and I have not found a cure, nor have I looked very hard for one!
May I suggest that there is no remedy for it but to relieve the symptoms I would suggest
LOTS AND LOTS OF VISITS BACK TO PUERTO POLLENSA IN THE FUTURE. :)

Of course there is another treatment which completely cures the yearning symptoms and that is to do what many of us have done..................take up permanent residence. However there is a side effect to this treatment......the thought of leaving, even if only for a short while can bring on panic attacks ;).

I know what you mean about people thinking you are mad. Another word often used is boring. Then when i ask where they are going they tell me that they are off on a 8-10 hour flight to some exotic all inclusive destination where they are advised not to go outside for safety reasons and they will spend 2 weeks eating in the same place twice a day. At this point i laugh with the reply "And you call me boring" but it seems to go over their heads.:confused:

I used to hear that from people Pollensafan, my response was "you spend your holidays doing what suits you and so do i. You go away hoping to have a good time, i go away knowing i will". ;);)

So true Sparky, people have stopped asking me where I am going, when I say I am going away they say, 'to the same place again!' I just smile politely and say Yes ;)

... and a nasty little rash! :eek:

That is, indeed, the difference between folk who settle on going to just one place and those who don't.

That looks nasty barefoot - a little paddle in the med may do the trick !! in PP of course.

In M&S this morning, in a queue, lady told me she has been going to PP for years and is off there on sat - and we'll be there 3 weeks today - we PPfans are everywhere!

You are SO right tibbles! Have just been to my first Zumba class (dont ask!) and a lady there had just come back from PP too! The word has spread! ;)

PLEASE Belladonna - what is Zumba ? :D :confused: I only go to upholstery - Zumba sounds fun ?

Official line is - Zumba combines Latin and International music with a fun and effective workout system.

Sounds tame enough doesn't it?! Lets just say I looked at the clock after half an hour thinking I had done an hours class! Not PP related so wont go into any more details, but look it up for a class near you if you really want to work out to Jazz, Rumba, Salsa, etc etc! ;)

Thanks Belladonna - thought dancing may be involved - perhaps a bit hot for PP - swimming and walking is enough for me when there - hubby likes to hire a bike - last time fell off but still intends to try again - it must be the magic of PP !! Am taking plenty of plasters and germoline this time.

Enjoy the Zumba - you'll probably have a week to recover ? :)

Here's to Wonderful PP and all her fans - and those yet to discover her magic. - funny how I automatically call PP 'her' ?
