It’s a curious place. Dont get me wrong; I actually quite like it (and my hotel – the Rock Hotel – is wonderful), but it is slightly strange. I’m sure that I’m not the first person to make such a comment. It’s British but not quite British. It’s not Spanish but there’s a bit of it that is. Under the grey sky of today it could easily have passed for a town on the south coast of England but with… Hang on! What’s that orange tree doing there full of fruit?
