"Record season? I will keep the champagne on ice for now..."
21/08/2015 00:00
I am always rather sceptical when I see reports of a record summer season with visitor numbers reaching a record high. I must admit that I have been rather surprised at how quiet and deserted some parts of the island are at the moment even though it is peak season. Now, I do not want to ruin the party because we need a good summer season but I think it is too early to talk of a record season because there are still key months to come including the second half of August and of course September. Hotels are not 100 per cent full: their occupancy level is in the high 90s, but talk of hotel overbooking at the start of the season have proved wrong.

Oh,look,a flying Pig.
Well everyone I have spoken to are saying it is a record season. But the worst season. Who knows what the truth is. But people believe what they see with their eyes and in their tills not what some government department or agency tells them.
