G4M3R Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 The Association of British Travel Agents has published some of the more bizarre complaints received from Britons holidaying abroad: 1. "No one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children were startled." 2. "We had to queue outside with no air conditioning." 3. "I was bitten by a mosquito - no one said they could bite." 4. "We booked an excursion to a water park but no one told us we had to bring our swimming costumes and towels." 5. "We found the sand was not like the sound in the brochure. Your brochure shows the sand as yellow but it was white." 6. "My fiance and I booked a twin-bedded room but we were placed in a double-bedded room. We now hold you responsible for the fact that I find myself pregnant. This would not have happened if you had put us in the room we booked." 7. "The brochure stated 'No hairdressers at the accommodation'. We're trainee hairdressers - will we be OK staying here?" And finally, from a holidaymaker in Spain: 8. "There are too many Spanish people. The receptionist speaks Spanish. The food is Spanish. Too many foreigners." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrentNewbury Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Hiya G4M3R, I'd just like to speak on behalf of the British people if I may; not all of the British population are that stupid. Some of us do hold a varying degree of intelligence. However, if we're anything like my mother, who asks "What time did the clock stop?", then there is no hope for the British empire at all. - Tranquility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Jokes & Funny Stuff" Hense, this was a joke, we all know that its a joke, we all know that "ALL" british people arent that dumb. Just as we all know that all blonde females aren't dumb and little boys named timmy and jimmy, ect, aren't perverted. I live in the United States, I have posted jokes before about Americans being stupid. Does that mean I'm stupid? Of course not. It means I have a sense of humor and find the joke funny dispite the fact it's about Americans being stupid. Why? Simple. Because it's a joke, nothing more. It's not actual proof that Americans are stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
