Their Magnificently Majestic Majesties visit every municipality and many villages in the Campo de Gibraltar, as well as the Rock

We do not know what kind of document Their Majesties will be required to show when they cross the border into Gibraltar but they are sure to brighten the faces of children everywhere (Prospero memo to monkeys: They are Magic - Magi in fact, they don't need documents!)

The kids will be eager to see them parade through the streets of their towns and villages because they bring gifts for each of them, having made sure to advise Their Fantabulasticatious Majesties of their presence this morning with the 'Dragging of the Tins'.
