SUNDAY MAY 31

My guest on this Sunday's programme first came to Mallorca to work in the year that The Archies had a hit with Sugar Sugar (1969, in case you wondered) and - apart from one summer spent working on the Costa Brava - she's been here ever since.

Lynda Walsh Furling has recently notched up 31 years working in the same hotel, the Hotel Cala Sant Vicenc, where she is now the directora. Lynda joins me for a chat about her life on the island, what it's like to run a hotel - I'm sure there'll be a funny story or two - and more.

Join me on Sunday from 10am for conversation, news, details of what's on for your entertainment on the island and great music too.

Catch you then!

MEDITERRANEA - EVERYTHING YOU GIVE, THEY GIVE

Dr Michael Stoma, the Mallorca-based GP and president of the charity Mediterranea, was an inspiring guest on today's show (May 17). If you'd like to find out more about this non-governmental organisation, which provides direct help to make a big difference to the lives of many people, check out their website www.mediterranea.org.es.

All donations, however small, are a great help towards their work. It costs 20 euros to feed, educate and clothe a child in their care. The happy faces in the pictures on their website speak volumes . . .
