Thanks, Sanji. I think there will be many members who will be interested. Me for one!

...and me

Thanks for gathering all that info together in one place for us Sanji- very useful

Makes very good reading for me as we are going to Torremilinnos in February.

so thank you Sanji

Thanks Sanji, that's brilliant. I will be printing it off to take with me when I go next month.

Made into a sticky.

Many thanks Sanji

Will delete all the comments when everyone has had their say to enable the thread to stay 'tidy' and the info not to be too spread out.

Glynis. What is a sticky and can I have one please
Does it mean that it can be condensed so it could be printed on just 1 sheet of paper?

Suzie
A 'sticky' is where the post is pinned at the top of the page and is therefore unable to fall out of view for those seeking information and looking on the main page.
You can just print off the relevant info that you want, and if you highlight the bit you want and click the 'selection' button in your printer software, your printer should only print the info you have highlighted/chosen.
I'm not 'techno' so I'm assuming that all printer software will have this option.
