Mad_Cyril well it’s still not definitive either way so who knows.
LT42 Agreed mate, I like the polarity of opinion though!
Mad_Cyril such a pity if the info has indeed come from Jabba The Hut Pompeo.
Can’t wait to go abroad and shout JUST GET US OUT at the locals….
THESE ARE ACTUAL COMPLAINTS RECEIVED BY “THOMAS COOK VACATIONS” FROM DISSATISFIED CUSTOMERS:
“They should not allow topless sunbathing on the beach. It was very distracting for my husband who just wanted to relax.”
“On my holiday to Goa in India, I was disgusted to find that almost every restaurant served curry. I don’t like spicy food.”
“We went on holiday to Spain and had a problem with the taxi drivers as they were all Spanish.”
“We booked an excursion to a water park but no-one told us we had to bring our own swimsuits and towels. We assumed it would be included in the price.”
“The beach was too sandy. We had to clean everything when we returned to our room.”
“We found the sand was not like the sand in the brochure. Your brochure shows the sand as white but it was more yellow.”
“It’s lazy of the local shopkeepers in Puerto Vallartato close in the afternoons. I often needed to buy things during ‘siesta’ time – this should be banned.”
“No-one told us there would be fish in the water. The children were scared.”
“Although the brochure said that there was a fully equipped kitchen, there was no egg-slicer in the drawers.”
“I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local convenience store does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts.”
“The roads were uneven and bumpy, so we could not read the local guide book during the bus ride to the resort. Because of this, we were unaware of many things that would have made our holiday more fun.”
“It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to England. It took the Americans only three hours to get home. This seems unfair.”
“I compared the size of our one-bedroom suite to our friends’ three-bedroom and ours was significantly smaller.”
“The brochure stated: ‘No hairdressers at the resort.’ We’re trainee hairdressers and we think they knew and made us wait longer for service.”
“When we were in Spain, there were too many Spanish people there. The receptionist spoke Spanish, the food was Spanish. No one told us that there would be so many foreigners.”
“We had to line up outside to catch the boat and there was no air-conditioning.”
“It is your duty as a tour operator to advise us of noisy or unruly guests before we travel.”
“I was bitten by a mosquito. The brochure did not mention mosquitoes.”
“My fiancée and I requested twin-beds when we booked, but instead we were placed in a room with a king bed. We now hold you responsible and want to be re-reimbursed for the fact that I became pregnant. This would not have happened if you had put us in the room that we booked.”

Some solid ‘experience improvement opportunities’ in there for Thomas Cook. They need a Biz Trans hot-shot to turn them there nuggets into GOLD.
Never accepting second best IS WHAT MAKES US GREAT
LT42 Apparently the guy who wrote the WSJ piece on the “lab leak” is the same guy who wrote the “aluminium tubes” piece for Bush back in 02/03 and all the info was drip fed to him via Pompeo’s State Dept where it was sat on until recently.
This is where all the best/most accurate info comes from! We are saying Wuhan Virus again goddamn it!!!
Totally separate note here but… @hugopal it looks like Freddy K played a big outdoor in the streets of Berlin yesterday. Did you kick it at all?

Had no idea, seems like it was just part of some kind of protest march.
Why would you holiday abroad when GREAT BRITAIN is bathing in glorious sunshine?
Smallman1 says the man who is always going on about foreign holidays
Just got back from from the Yorkshire Dales Bens.
I talk the walk.
Blackpool holiday brochures behind the tills in Sainsbury’s today. 😆
The Yorkshire Dales are your friend, that’s where the erudite and bang on trend hang out.
Cornwall is for loosers.
Smallman1 I was going there for public school trips in the 90s Ed. Way ahead of you.
Smallman1 Charlotte Street is almost finished - Publisic moved a few years ago, but Omnicom moving lock stock will be the end.
Always preferred Zuma to ROKA, but ROKA is still excellent
Along_the_Wire Charlotte Street is almost finished
Shame, was absolutely rocking in its pomp.
Roka was immense last night. Sadly the Japanese Jack Sparrow is no longer there
Or should that be Japs Sparrow
Wahey!!!
Delighted for you Bens!
