That magnificent bi-annual event is almost upon us again…the AllSeeingEye blog run ashore in Gib.

Next week my co-author here St Crispin will be out on the Rock. Some random throwing himself out of a Hercules will be involved during the daytime, but in the evenings the bars and beerhalls beckon with seductive siren song.

As usual this spells danger for the steward of the officers’ mess at HMS Rooke and an imminent local shortage of the ingredients of a Horse’s Neck.

A few local readers have said that they will be joining us for a drink or two during the week, but if any other readers find themselves in Town on business or pleasure then please drop TheEye a mail via the link at the side of the blog and you’ll be most welcome to join us.
