How would you like the chance to take a fortnight's holiday in Spain

How would you like the chance to take a fortnight's holiday in Spain which includes all your food, hotel, flights, insurance, entertainment, a free doctor in every hotel and all for an astonishing €300?


This is what Ibiza's pensioners are entitled to thanks to the subsidised holiday scheme of the Government's Social Security Department, Imserso. The lucky old so and so's get to choose between beach holidays in Gandia, Santa Susana or Deltebre and can also get cultured up in Astorga or Barbastro!


Sounds too good to be true, doesn't it? Well it is, as the old timers are up in arms because their counterparts in Mallorca have much more choice of holiday destinations.


Could it be that Mallorca is about 10 times bigger than Ibiza and has an airport with more than a few flights a day in winter? Probably not, but at least they'll have something to talk about when they're away!
