Oh dear.


I go out to the shops and what happens, Mikecg is getting above his station. Well to be honest it hasn't happened over night has it. During the dark days of my ban I noticed old Mickles started copying Snorky's moniker 'the new improved non offensive Mikecg', I bet you've even went out and bought the same trainers as Snorky didn't you Mike you Daft wally.

Survey by Thomas Cook and ABTA


"I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local store does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts."


"It's lazy of the local shopkeepers to close in the afternoons. I often needed to buy things during 'siesta' time - this should be banned."


"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."


"We booked an excursion to a water park but no-one told us we had to bring our swimming costumes and towels."


A tourist at a top African game lodge overlooking a waterhole, who spotted a visibly aroused elephant, complained that the sight of this rampant beast ruined his honeymoon by making him feel "inadequate".


A woman threatened to call police after claiming that she'd been locked in by staff. When in fact, she had mistaken the "do not disturb" sign on the back of the door as a warning to remain in the room.


"The beach was too sandy."


"We found the sand was not like the sand in the brochure. Your brochure shows the sand as yellow but it was white."


A guest at a Novotel in Australia complained his soup was too thick and strong. He was inadvertently slurping the gravy at the time.


"Topless sunbathing on the beach should be banned. The holiday was ruined as my husband spent all day looking at other women."


"We bought 'Ray-Ban' sunglasses for five Euros (?3.50) from a street trader, only to find out they were fake."


"No-one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children were startled."


"It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to England, yet it only took the Americans three hours to get home."


"I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to our friends' three-bedroom apartment and ours was significantly smaller."


"The brochure stated: 'No hairdressers at the accommodation'. We're trainee hairdressers - will we be OK staying here?"


"There are too many Spanish people. The receptionist speaks Spanish. The food is Spanish. Too many ** foreigners."


"We had to queue outside with 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 - no-one said they could bite."


"My fianc? 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 that we booked."

The Brothel


The madam opened the brothel door in Leicester and saw a rather dignified, well-dressed, good-looking man in his late forties or early fifties.


"May I help you sir?" she asked.


"I want to see Valerie," the man replied.


"Sir, Valerie is one of our most expensive ladies. Perhaps you would prefer someone else", said the madam.


"No, I must see Valerie," he replied.


Just then, Valerie appeared and announced to the man she charged ?5000 a visit. Without hesitation, the man pulled out five thousand pounds and gave it to Valerie , and they went upstairs. After an hour, the man calmly left.


The next night, the man appeared again, once more demanding to see Valerie. Valerie explained that no one had ever come back two nights in a row as she was so expensive.. There were no discounts. The price was still ?5000.


Again, the man pulled out the money, gave it to Valerie, and they went upstairs. After an hour, he left.


The following night the man was there yet again. Everyone was astounded that he had come for a third consecutive night, but he paid Valerie and they went upstairs.


After their session, Valerie said to the man, "No one has ever been with me three nights in a row. Where are you from?".


The man replied, "Blackpool .."


"Really", she said. "I have family in Blackpool .."


"I know." the man said. "Your sister died, and I'm her attorney. She asked me to give you your ?15,000 inheritance."



The moral of the story is that three things in life are certain.

1. Death

2. Taxes

3. Being screwed by a lawyer

The wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I

kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table.


My wife asked, 'Do you know her?' 'Yes,' I sighed, 'She's my old girlfriend.


I understand she took to drinking right after we split up those many years

ago, and I hear she hasn't been sober since.'


'My God!' says my wife, 'Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?'

    • Many thanks to the woman who looked after our old deaf Miniature Schnauzer who got separated from us in the park this morning. And thank you to the man who alerted us . My husband is very relieved and grateful. If any one knows who these people are please say thank you as he didn't get their names. 
    • why do we think we have the right for the elected local council to be transparent?
    • Granted Shoreditch is still London, but given that the council & organisers main argument for the festival is that it is a local event, for local people (to use your metaphor), there's surprisingly little to back this up. As Blah Blah informatively points out, this is now just a commercial venture with no local connection. Our park is regarded by them as an asset that they've paid to use & abuse. There's never been any details provided of where the attendees are from, but it's still trotted out as a benefit to the local community.  There's never been any details provided of any increase in sales for local businesses, but it's still trotted out as a benefit to the local community.  There's promises of "opportunities" for local people & traders to work at the festival, but, again, no figures to back this up. And lastly, the fee for the whole thing goes 100% to running the Events dept, and the dozens of free events that no-one seems able to identify, and, yes, you guessed it - no details provided for by the council. So again, no tangible benefit for the residents of the area.
