    Hey All,

    As we are approaching the new year and most will be either booking a holiday or have one planned, before you do anything have a look at the below link.

    http://www.natureknows.org/2013/11/i...ncel-your.html

    These are holiday complaints that Thomas Cook received from customer about their trip abroad. Number 19 has something to teach us all and that is procreation isn't for everyone. Tongue Out

    Enjoy

    I appreciate #19 - because you know the travel company can control this....

    19. “My fiance 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.”

    I think... those complaining have missed the entire point of going on vacation.

    I think number 7 is my personal favourite, as I can't help but imagine the conversation going something like this:

    "Oh of course I'm paying attention to you hon. I really wish there were not so many beautiful and half naked women at this beach so that I could give you the full attention you so rightfully deserve.

    Oh yes, you should totally complain about all the half naked women here, its really terrible and clearly ruining our vacation time with my inability to fight my Y chromosome's need to stare at half naked women.

    Yep, this is just the worst vacation ever."

    I really do hate that when it happens during my vacations... Mainly due to the severe whiplash I get, and the summary beatings from my wife.

    Thank you Wixi for once again making me lose my faith in humanity.

    This one here I found the most upsetting “We went on holiday to Spain and had a problem with the taxi drivers as they were all Spanish.”
