Delighted (and somewhat taken aback) to see that my book about #Málaga is currently #3 on the amazon.com 'Andalusia Travel Guides' bestseller list. I'm very happy to play 3rd fiddle to the mighty @RickSteves and Chris Stewart from Genesis.

This is what defeat looks like for a bike thief. Help spread more disappointment: We've got an angle grinder-resistant D-lock to give away. Link in thread 👇

My iPhone reminds me of this photo from 4yrs ago - morning after Notre-Dame fire. The cross reflected the light in the ruin in way I could scarcely believe was real. It was. I was on Easter hols and sent to Freddy Gray who was editing. His instinct was to change covers… (1/3)

Los proyectos de viviendas repuntan un 22% en Málaga: su mejor cifra en cinco años #Málaga malagah.info/c9nwz3

Interesting....

Forecast is good...come to Lewes on Sunday for a day out! (I'll be doing a talk about why Brexit hasn't turned out so brilliantly), but more importantly, what can be done to fix it... ticketsource.co.uk/lewesspeakersf…

@Gaylussite Ugh. The centre of Málaga — about the size of Soho + Fitzrovia — is free of cars (except residents'). I took these photos just before midnight on a Saturday last October. It's like a ghost town compared to London.

A corporate lawyer sharing with an investment banker is no longer a good enough combined income to buy a house in London. This is how insane the property market has become. If you don’t have a wealthy family able to buy a significant chunk of your house for you, you’re screwed.

I wasn’t expecting to post again for a while, but I’ve been slightly taken aback by the number of messages. Your support means a lot to me at a testing time. In fact it seems many of you already have my next move planned out before I’ve even thought about it! For those who have messaged me privately I’ll get back to you when I can - but first I had to tackle a literal mountain, after just falling short on the metaphorical one.

@Jebadoo2 Sorry, I shall be using all my votes in support of Cabrales.

Manchego and Emmental lads. Vote early. Vote often. Vote twice if you can.

Got to say I enjoyed the BBC interview with Javier Milei. He likes the Rolling Stones. And after saying how much he liked Margaret Thatcher, giving an intelligent answer when asked about the Falklands War, he was asked if he liked Liz Truss. His answer: Who?

@PortyRosie Well done Rosie — an excellent prediction! #TheArchers

@baghwallah Thankfully we were spared a rape Sl & indeed his desire for filming women in out of control situations. I imagine he’s just going to abandon the scene and lose his shit #TheArchers

Given George’s venal attitude to women - I think he’ll abandon the car and Alice and lie about his involvement. If she does die hopefully he’s banged up for manslaughter #TheArchers

@peakshiker @bouldie Great way to really depress someone looking for a meaningful relationship. I know people who met online who have been married for years. Can you justify your nasty tweet?

@bouldie @baghwallah Real connection is v rare.

@bouldie Sorry to hear that.

@PortyRosie We'll see!
