Thank you
Roger, Thanks indeed for your info on the rock and the comments about the ship, I am glad to hear there were no casualties, we figured it had broken anchor but didn't know of the storm or the wider story, so thanks. Would be fascinated to know why they call it "Both worlds" though?? :)

Bit of info regarding your Gibraltar stage
Hi guys, happened upon your site and saw the pictures you took in Gibraltar. The tunnel you show with the lights inside which you took at Both Worlds is actually the Communications Centre (or Comcen). It is an MoD instalation which runs east-west right through the middle of the rock of Gibraltar (just under a kilometre in length. If you look close enough you can actually see the light at the opposite entrance during daylight. In the middle of the tunnel there is a perpendicular extension containing facilities were military personel go about there daily duties. As you can see the tunnel is very narrow but nevertheless vehicles do use it. Whenever a vehicle enters via the western side to convey personel to the offices, the vehicle has to continue towards the eastern entrance, open the gates, turn round in the exterior and then proceed back into the tunnel to make its return trip back west. If you visit with more time in your hands you might want to explore the 45 or so kilometres of tunnels within the rock dating fromWW2 all the way back to the 1700s (its not as solid as they say LOL) In relation to the ship by the lighthouse, this was the result of the M/V Fedra (numerous websites refer), a large cargo ship which was anchored off the eastern side of the rock, breaking its anchor during one of the fiercest storm in Gibraltar history, with winds reaching hurricane force. This occured during November 2009. The tanker drifted with a crew of 18 men on board and collided stern first against the cliff just below the lighthouse, with the bow ending up pointed towards the direction where you took the photo from. Crew were airlifted by means of rescue helicopter and a makeshift crane with basket arrangement which was lowered onto the bow where the crew were huddled against the onslought of waves which splashed over the top of the cliff. It took less that 12 hours for the battered ship to snap cleanly in half just under the front of the bridge as a result of the force of the waves, luckily no casualties. By the time you took the picture the front section had been refloated and towed to Algeciras for scrapping. The entire rear section in the photo was lifted by a giant barge crane and similarly disposed of. Anyway, I hope that has satisfied your curiosity. If you would like to know anything else about Gibraltar I will be happy to help. Dont hesitate to let me know if you are coming over again with more time as I will be glad to show you around my little but special homeland. Regards: Roger Morello.

I climbed Longanot at 10.00.am in the morning, got to the top and around the half the crator. 1.30.pm. then around the other half and down to the bottom at 4.30.pm. it was a thirsty journey. Got to the nearest Duka and drank down a 2 litre Coka cola, none stop. It was good.!!!!
