WHINGING BRITONS (Aoibhínn)

We never stop moaning about the weather in this country and wishing we lived in some tropical paradise, but it seems for some British holidaymakers basking in the sun hundreds of miles away from the UK is simply not enough. Thomas Cook and ABTA have put together 20 of the most ludicrous and shockingly stupid travel complaints simply for our entertainment and what a laugh I have had perusing the most ridiculous statements I have possibly ever heard. From complaints about beaches being ‘too sandy’ to a group who booked a trip to a water park but complained when they realised they hadn’t been told to bring their swimming gear – and the grumbles just get better!

Not only that but Harry Styles won the award for ‘Villain of the Year’. Perhaps the One Direction light is not set to shine so dazzling bright from now on…or is that wishful thinking?
