September 2, 201312 yr Marina Skorpios. Fuck me Daz, I went there as a 14 year old on my first foreign holiday with Arrowsmith holidays in 1974. First time I had flown too. It had a sister hotel just opposite on the other side of the inlet with a nightclub underneath. You could high dive off the rocks into the inlet if you had the balls. Twas your traditional full board back in the day and all the male staff wore full uniform with dickie bows and the head barmen and waiters used to wear red jackets.

September 2, 201312 yr Did the (male) reps wear bras? Twas a serious job in those days. Ours was a fully suited multi lingual brit in his late 30's.
September 2, 201312 yr Much as I despise the money for nowt compensation culture and related antics of underclass scumbags, I'm afraid I'm agreeing with Ryan... When we start informing on other folk for stuff other than nonceing, sex crimes, lowdown personal thefts and harming folk we're on the start of a slippy slope that ends somewhere in a 'Great Leap Forward' era China (Ok, perhaps that's over-egging it but...)
September 2, 201312 yr Just enjoy your holiday instead of worrying about someone elses snitch If price increases due to it?
September 2, 201312 yr If price increases due to it? I was only winding him up about the snitch part :-)
September 2, 201312 yr I was only winding him up about the snitch part :-) I know. They don't call you Ryan the Canary for nothing
September 2, 201312 yr During Portugal 2004 we had the full Rooney family in the same hotel for the same duration, loud as you like but I must admit they were a good bunch
September 2, 201312 yr First day of my holibobs and there was a family who'd camped up round the pool. Lilos everywhere, a table dragged into a place that inconvenienced everyone else so they could sit around playing cards. As soon as I saw them I said to the bird, "Scousers, nailed on". They just had that 'look' that scousers have. Anyway, as soon as we're in earshot I was proved right. Later that night I'm on my blacony and I hear one of them below me talking to a nice old couple that he'd cornered. The conversation went like this... Nice old couple: "Are you having a nice time?" Scum: "Aye, it's fucking boss" NOC: "It's a nice hotel isn't it? Scum: "Yeah, and the lucky thing is we should've been elsewhere but they relocated us here. This place is fucking miles nicer." NOC: "Oh, well that's lucky for you isn't it?" Scum: "Yeah, but we're still putting a claim in though" NOC: "Pardon? What for?" Scum: "Well, it's what we do. Always do it. It's the game isn't it?! We always find a reason to put in a claim for compo, and we always get it. You just need to know who to talk to. We always just go straight to the top. You should try it." Fucking vermin. I hate scousers more than the average non-scouser, but this stinks of bollocks. No doubt you overheard a tiny snippet of a conversation and made the rest up.

September 2, 201312 yr Author Does no one do Scouse free hotels? Probably won't find many of them in here.
September 2, 201312 yr You should have sneaked up and put a big Leppings Lane sign near their chalet.
