Hello from Benidorm 
Here to report on how the Costa is coping with Covid as Brits return. And to get a tan. And a gin.


The Mayor of Benidorm tells me the city had to introduce a new law on scooters to stop all the young Brits riding round pretending to be Madge
As a teen I had a bad incident scuba diving 40ft under the Indian Ocean. It left me with a perforated eardrum and fear of deep water. The idea of jet skiing was pretty terrifying. But after some medicinal tequila, and deep breaths, I overcame my fear and went riding the waves

Never know who youâll bump into in Benidorm... lovely to meet the creator of one of my fave sitcoms, @DerrenLitten, at Mateoâs bar

Just did BBC News live from Alicante Airport, with 10 minutes until my flight, and a screaming child sitting himself next to me right before going live, balancing my phone in one hand. I must get some kind of TV Choice Award at this point.
