Agree 100% with your comments about drunk behaviour. What's wrong with people? Holidays are supposed to be a time to relax and forget life's stresses. We come over from Scotland a couple of times a year and luckily have not seen anything like this. Keep up the great work - I look forward to these videos in between trips.

Utterly agree with your "rant" about drunken or just anti-social behaviour by persons at airports and on aircraft. There was a very outrageous incident at passport control when we arrived at Lanzarote yesterday. A young British female was attempting to que jump, when staff politely pointed out that she should wait her turn, she became so abusive that the duty police officer had to intervene. To my embarrassment and disbelief, she began shouting and swearing and the officer. Did not see how the incident was resolved but hopefully she was not allowed to enter the island. Your words and views regarding bad behaviour could not be better said. My rant over. Another very interesting and informative video, thank you. Looking forward to another lovely week here at our favourite place on Lanzarote.

Yes we were just behind the incident too. Quite why the mother was screaming about bad treatment of her daughter I don’t know. She seemed to be upset they were separated, one would have thought that was their job to stick together. Unfortunately they were let in to the country. I’m sure if I’d got right in the face of a Spanish officer as a tall man I would have been led off somewhere very dark with no refreshments. I was amazed they weren’t and can’t help but feel they didn’t learn a lesson and are now sat somewhere not only ruining someone else’s holiday but moaning that they were right.

I couldn’t agree more with your comments about drunken behaviour on planes - and why were the two women allowed onto the plane at all?

Thanks for the latest video. Regarding the people involved in the incidents you reported, I agree, the penalties should be much more severe with larger fines and jail time. Perhaps a lifetime ban on returning to the island is in order. Sadly I doubt either will provide a deterrent to others doing the same unfortunately

Hi Mike - thanks for your weekly news videos I do enjoy them. I have a question - I was looking to buy some of the 5 attraction tickets for the Cesar Manrique attractions for when we come in September but cannot find them anywhere - only separate tickets for each attraction on the CACT website have they been discontinued? Thanks so much
@LanzaroteInformation
@LanzaroteInformation Ай бұрын
Yes, they’ve stopped doing the multiple entry tickets, I’m afraid, so you need to get one for each of the CACT centres. Have a great time here in September, Hayley. Our favourite month of the year, weather wise.

I did see the gates being used at the Rubicon marina last week - not sure if anybody was being charged. I did see a lot of E-scooters on the Playa Blanca, as well as bicycles ignoring the no cycling signs at the beginning of the promenade just past La Sal - wonder if they'll enforce that rule..

Hi Mike, thanks as always, love getting these updates. Re the parking in Marina Rubicon, which area of parking is it? The long lines of spaces as you drive in by the shopping mall, or the smaller lot next to Lani’s snack bar? And someone in a Playa Blanca group said the public toilets in Marina Rubicon, next to the Cabrera Marina office right before the cobbled area are closed off. Could you find out if they will reopen? It’s a place I stop when out on early morning runs & quite necessary! Shame on the drunks causing havoc & injury; absolutely no need for this type of behavior.
@LanzaroteInformation
@LanzaroteInformation Ай бұрын
The barriers are at the roundabout at the entrance where the gas station is. So charges will apply to the car parks behind the shops, and the small ones by the marina offices and next to the slipway. I haven heard anything about the public washrooms being closed.

They could have drank much more once they were airside, so perhaps when they passed through security, they weren't too bad. But that's only a guess.

I agree. Whilst in an idea world, we’d all be civilised and could be trusted to drink sensibly, the reality is we can’t. If you can’t wait a few hours to get to your destination to have a drink, thats a sad state of affairs. Everyone should feel safe on an aeroplane, especially the staff.

"I'm British born" Does that mean you no longer consider yourself British? I totally agree with all you say as regards drunk idiots travelling but thankfully it's a small number of idiots but as Brits are predominantly the largest number of tourists this will be noticed. Love your channel but as with some others it seems a lot of expats seem to like slagging off the UK It isn't perfect but there are worse places in the world to come from.

Interesting question. My passport is British, but I’ve spent much less than half my life living in the UK, and that was many years ago. I guess like many long term immigrants (I’m not an “Expat”) around the world, nationality becomes blurred over time. Culturally, we end up in a sort of hybrid state, taking on elements of the nationalities we spend our lives with, immersing ourselves in the news and the issues that are relevant to the country we live in, rather than the one we left behind.
