Just ‘tweeted’ that I was heading to Mallorca for a couple of weeks at the end of June and asked if any one had any advice on what I should do or where I should go.
Within seconds I got a notification that Come2Mallorca was now following me.
Turns out it was spam. Sent by a room/tour booking company that must have some little robot working for them that picks up every time someone uses the word Mallorca.
Luckily, I don’t automatically start following everyone who is following me. Slackness, mainly. But it is a bad habit that just saved me from endless tweets about the latest deal on a holiday condo on Magaluf.
Got me wondering though. What do you call spam that you get via Twitter?
Spitter? Spatter?
This is where you'll find everything you need to know about me and my books.
Twam?
Hi! I’ve never been to Mallorca; but I did work in Menorca all of summer 2000 and its a beautiful island with lots of secluded little beaches called “calas” definitely worth a visit and even better if you rent a car; AND I’ve heard Formentera is also a little gem, with practically no civilization and its quite easy to travel from one island to the other.
that? is an excellent question!
Twam. Like it. Sounds especially good when you say all three together:
‘Spitter, Spatter, Twam!’
A nice definitive finish.
