Midnight and the Balcón de Europa and calle Cristo were fairly busy, people wandering, shopping or partaking of refreshments. Los Barriles, El Pulguilla and the Round Bar were particularly packed.

Still excellent weather – long may it continue – but definitely a lot fewer people around at the moment and quite a few places, bars and restaurants mainly, have been closing or are closed for their winter break, some for as long as four months – Scarletta’s, Agape to name but three.
