Now we are fully back home and don't have to rely on me tapping out posts on my phone, I can explain a bit more of how it went. Stayed in Palmanova in Mallorca, not far from the beach and near the supermarket. Which if you've seen my previous post, contains a chicken.
Sadly had to spend most of my time with the French, which seem to be prevalent in this part of the island. Some are hot, but mostly they are a drag and are the most miserable race on the planet.
We have three beaches, our main beach, the Playa de Palmanova, Platja Son Maties to the left and Punta Marroig which is our local dog beach and leads around the bay to another strand of sand. Saw a big Rotley there swimming in the sea with its owners and a lady with a Greg Mitchell on another occasion.

A few good places for drinks and such, the fish restaurant / bar Il Chiringo and Diana's beach bar which is also nice but more expensive.
We were served quite well for travel links and while expensive, you can get to Palma for under 5 euros via the local bus services.
We saw a few nice things out there. A few cats, an octopus, and a massive crab which means I've got sod all chance of finding this online. Also the usual fish plus a massive mullet. Not so many plants this time, but what I did find wasn't bad, a few cacti and stuff to keep me entertained.
TV. Never really had it on but, can confirm that, they were showing Doraemon still on Spanish TV, whenever I did. Oh and this channel (and link) turned out to be both German and folk music.
Hotel is good, and if you are into food, well worth a stay. Be warned the lifts are small and slow and you won't get a pool view (no one does) but the views we do have are great.
