    Between desire and good sense

    That the city lets pass the possibility of hosting a few World Cup matches is a shame, but it's not really what's important

    No return. Fair

    Everything inevitably and necessarily changes of course, and that's a crucial part of life's rich tapestry but, boy, has Malaga changed at a rapid rate of knots

    Poolside austerity

    It might have been peaceful, if not for the barrage of airborne adults - thick-thighed, tattooed - as they launched themselves with the desperate joy of middle-aged people trying to fight their creeping irrelevance and feel something again

    Queues show where the time goes

    The woman who'd just cunningly nipped in front of me in the supermarket check-out queue was truly a sight to behold, clutching her breakfast cereal and cat food like they were prized medals

    Where's the funny in that?

    I had thought this would be a great opportunity to compare the public transport systems on offer in the UK and in Spain and then write a thoroughly entertaining piece on the subject, writes columnist Peter Edgerton
