I was there 2 months ago, beautiful place, don't miss it.

I don't think the Spanish would succeed in their claim, after all, Gibraltar was "Spanish" for a shorter period of time than it was British. The Brits have controlled Gibraltar for 300 + years and counting. The Spanish have controlled it for only 242 years.
