    Absolutely.

    I’m a seasoned sailor*

    *Well I’m not, but I’m happy to muck in, and I have been on the wheel sailing a yacht into Cowes for the night, and I’ve been at the wheel of a 72 foot racing yacht too. :emoticon-0103-cool:

    It's very complicated.

    Take sheep for example they generally live and grow in hilly grassy areas which are good for nothing else apart from letting a few animals roam about. And yet for some unknown reason a lot of the sheep meat you will see in the shops was grown in New Zealand.

    Without getting into politics too much, it maybe that Brexit gives us the chance to make positive steps forward on the climate, health and local businesses.

    Palma is the Balearics.... are you on the gin? (Daft question!) yeah can sail else where if another location works better. Valencia or Ibiza are easy.... Italian islands a longer sail west (or anywhere inbetween)

    I presume there will be steaks on the menu.

    No

    (well yes...sort of...I’m having a glass of Glenlivet Founders Reserve actually)

    that video was from there because there’s huge flooding apparently round there (maybe not Palma) and five dead

    ...can you have someone mop the deck before we arrive please?

    seriously it looks ****ing horrendous in some places, Valencia being one

    No mention of Palma I could see so hopefully your palace is fine

    Even if I’m on the BBQ I’d cook you a steak.

    I eat plants, but happy to cook meat for others, and regularly do
