when I asked him about Benidorm as the location he said it had never been seriously considered and the committee they let the idea run so as not to spoil the suprise.
The trouble with this and many other forums is they are a great place to spread unsubstantiated rumour. Remember last year when we all assumed that the Italian venue would be Monza![/quote]
The problem here is, so many of us had set our hearts on Benidorm, that Abejar is an anti -climax. We had a fantastic lads holiday to Benidorm in '84 and always said we'd fancy going back on the scooters, the Euro seemed ideal and ticked all the boxes. Plans were being laid and wives forewarned (they would fly over with extra 2T oil, clutch plates and other parts) apartments in Benidorm were being looked at, although we said we'd camp on site for 2 nights and "holiday" the rest......alas....all to no avail. Not knocking Abejar, I've drove through the region before and it's very nice, but we are now considering a ride to Denmark instead (not sure where that came from ).
Not ruling Abejar out but they need to start posting some details...........and is it plastic cutlery
