. The town stops dramatically at the edge of tall, sheer cliffs and you wonder exactly how you'll be able to drive up to it.
Actually, it was pretty easy - so much for first impressions.
We parked the car very close to the centre of town and strolled off to see the sights.
Ronda consists of two very distinct quarters (shouldn't that really be halves?) - the old and the new. Don't get carried away now, the 'new' quarter is mainly 18th century so 'new' is a relative term.
The two areas are divided very neatly by a gaping chasm called El Tajo through which the River Guadalevín flows. This, and the 'new' bridge that crosses the gorge is probably one of the most photographed sites in this part of the world. The views down into the gorge are breathtaking and with the buildings clinging precariously on the knife-edge of cliff, it's pretty ...

Advantages: Minty, Fresh, Small Enough, Tube, Lots In A Pack Disadvantages: More-ish, Addictive
At the tender age of 22 I am lucky to have any teeth left after the amount of Polo's I used to eat at secondary school. Fortunately for me I have excellent teeth, but that's no thanks to the vending machine company who installed a sweet confectionary vending machine in our school hall and our sports hall. As a result I think I was known for having at least one packet of Polos in my pocket at any given time, and I mean at least one. Each packet of Polo's between 1997 - 2002 used to cost 0.20p from the vending machine which always left plenty of dinner money left over. They are also the most convenient mint to stash in a small blazer pocket and distribute amongst friends without being noticed by the eagle eyed teacher.
Whilst at secondary school Polo were selling 6 different varieties, though our school only stocked 4, I preferred ...
