4. “I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local store does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts.”
5. “The road was in such poor conditions that we couldn’t read the guidebook on the way to the hotel. This made us miss a lot of things that could have made our trip much better.”
6. “On my holiday to Goa in India, I was disgusted to find that almost every restaurant served curry. I don’t like spicy food at all.”

So funny 🤣🤣 that is my kind of fish, I’m allergic to fish so this would suit me fine. I love to go to Turkey on holiday but the one complaint I keep hearing from folk is the complaint that the food is too Turkish in the hotels ??? 🙄
It certainly does. Doesn't surprise me though. Reminds me of something I heard a snobby British woman say in a supermarket in Sorrento. Something along the lines of" There isn't much frozen food in here. Of course that's because they're so poor in this part of Italy."
So do I .And the Amalfi Coast.We used to go every year until we discovered Lake Garda.Time to go again I think. When we can.
Our friends did a tour of Italy on their motorbike last year. I warned them about the Amalfi road. They gave it a try but quickly realized why I warned them!
This reminds me of a holiday we had in Spain. Very nice restaurant in the hotel with waiter service.
We met a couple who complained:
They only use the tablecloths to hide the muck
and
They only give you the soup to fill you up.
And a chap who complained that the bus drivers were rubbish because they didn’t even know their own bus routes. He had gone out on a day out on public transport to a nearby town. When he got the bus back he told the driver he wanted to go to the Costa del Sol and the bus driver didn’t know where he wanted to be!
In my job before I retired, I worked on sporting events with colleagues from all round the world. I alway found my Italian friends to be great company and a great laugh, now the French say no more🙂. When I was working at Italia 90 my Italian mate ( Roco) took me to a restaurant/ cafe 3 days running and ordered our lunch, it was sausage, beans, and small pasta in a rich vegetable sauce, it was lovely. On the 4th day he was busy so I went by myself, I couldn't read the menu so thought I would try something different and picked a dish that sounded nice. What did I pick? Pasta E Fagioli!
The same dish as the last three days 😁😁 sorry that was a bit boring xx
My son had us in hysterics when he went to Austria and on the cable car trip they booked was on a foggy day so no views the party of Americans asked for a refund so they could return on a sunny day.😂😂😂
Hello made my day really cheered me up who wants to go abroad.
Must add another Mother story, so many.
Got invited to a restaurant called the Thai , she shouted..
We lived that time a small town in Co. Durham.
Well it is hot spicy food and you do not even allow me a curry in the home.. I quipped too many times..
Had to eat it outside in the car in the cold wet wind rain all weathers ..
No not at all so if they went my Father her and him with his squeaky shoes no matter how fast he walked or slow squeaky shoes..
I never have anything to wear she howled last comment, should be in blue and over flowing ..
Go in the river then he quipped.
As they sped off to a night of fun and frolic...
Me get them out of this so called one of my friends, went for an evening..
Any way they arrived back home screaming red faced father clutching his over sized belly..
Ordered the most unimaginable food ever she added coconut spicy hot you father fighting with Phil the friend who invited them, over the food..
Choices as it bought and placed on a lazy susan my father threatning to punch the waiter the added awful food..
Tried to ring you several times well not in out trying to get out of it. I can imagine the hoo ha and the fuss the considerable agony my parents in as eating the food ..
Pleasurable to think about now, before you all start..
Abusive nasty pieces of work all of my family..
Some are born in the wrong body I was born in the wrong family..
Totally different to any of those members help charitable offer my time and pleasure another story..
Often give away many things bought or attained..
Those in a need far greater than I am, always get another one..
Father had a whole week off and Mother laid in bed after being ill they claimed..
As for the moral of the story never lie or decieve like this as it bite you on the bum.
I hope you understand many gents like myself tormented home ..
Due to disability mental health we talk about ladies women girls getting abused by family members..
Not at all many stories than men boys getting the same from family members..
Mothers being the instigator.. Met since those men whose Mothers used benefit payments for there own gain and lifestyle..
Met men who are physically can not talk to any female as they virtually mentally scarred...
Long term abuse I suffered still resonate and effects me so much managed to deal help others..
Crisis behind the doors and net curtains a common practice if you had a disabled son .
My Mother lied controlled used deceit stealing violence intimidation threats under hand tactics to destroy her sons life.
Using alcoholism drugs food to ease pain...
Took me thirty years courts solitictors, support workers not easy, dealing with those..
Ladies hard to deal with ...
Took a lot of guts and energy and talking about this to groups charities and many others...
On a forum last year or so added my story which sent a flood of similar comparisions..
I was aware since Saville other abusers identified the worst of it is a family member..
I have met those had to leave the country live else where because family insists never happened.
I spent a long time listening being a friend..
Understand may find it amusing round when your mother is a physcopath and needs to be locked up and is hurting those around her then tell me about it..
