Death of Craig Mallon - an update

I have received an email from David Swindle giving details about how the investigation into Craig's death is going to date. The story has generated some recent local media interest mainly from the Diari de Girona newspaper and the local radio station with David doing an interview with Nova Radio which was broadcast earlier this week, they will also include the story on their website. The following piece seen below was published in the Diari de Girona newspaper on the 5th November.
The Facebook page and website http://craigmallon.com/ are still asking for people to come forward who were in Lloret de Mar the day/night when Craig lost his life back in May 2012. Any information would be gratefully received.

Lloret - morning, noon and night!


A set of photos from Fenals today with two scenes from the beach this morning - almost deserted today!


This small cruise ship was passing by quite close to the shore this afternoon so I just managed to get these photos from our balcony 


The last photo from today has to be this stunning shot of tonights sunset, again taken from our balcony.....

Lloret de Mar - Fenals



Just a few minutes walk from where we live brings us to this amazing location just above the beach of Fenals. Today we had ideal conditions with blue sky and just a few scattered clouds which enabled us to get these shots looking from the bay of Fenals right down the coast towards Blanes.

Lloret de Mar in November

A view of the castle 
Yesterday I posted a piece about the summer season coming to a close for many businesses, but as todays photos from the beaches of Fenals and Lloret show the weather for this holiday weekend is far from coming to an end. Todays temperature reached a high 23ºc giving the towns visitors the opportunity to spend time on the beach or take a leisurely stroll along the seafront.

End of the season in Lloret

We are now getting close to the end of the season in Lloret de Mar meaning that many of the bars, restaurants and hotels will shortly be closing their doors for the winter, most of which will not reopen until the start of next season.
Moby's club on the main strip in Lloret has now closed their doors for a few weeks - quite unusual for them as they do normally stay open all year, so the main strip will look very different this winter without the bright lights from Moby's. Clubs on the strip which do remain open will only do so at weekends.
One of our favourite places which we visit on a regular basis is Route 66, owners Andy & Jackie will close this weekend, we will miss them the most as we love their menu especially the English breakfasts and fish & chips!
