Last year the summer in the UK was the hottest on record. This year has been terrible. I think that is why bookings are up so much. I have holidayed twice per year in Mallorca for cycling for some years. I never realised just how much the local people loathe our presence until now. I have booked trips to other locations as a result thus year. I can completely understand that enough is enough for people who have to live on mallorca. I feel quite bad about the whole thing to be honest.
