British woman says her Spanish holiday was ruined by too many Spanish people

To be fair I'm not sure why Spanish people would choose to go on holiday to Glasgow-upon-sea given they have so many nicer parts of their country. I'd have assumed a package holiday there would mean a hotel full of chavs from the UK and Ireland and presumably the same sort of entertainment as you might expect in Butlins or some working mans club.

I don't think Sticky Vicky is a regular at Butlins to be fair... They're going for a more "family friendly" image.
 
On the plus side, when the old whingebag brigade naff off abroad the rest of us don't have to put up with them for a while. Visiting my Doctor's surgery a week ago was a pleasurable experience with no queues of entitled OAP's complaining about it being busy. The reception staff were smiling for once.

Don't get many oap's at the clap clinic normally.

I once overheard an American woman at a restaurant in Italy complain to her husband "He doesn't speak English?!" and she looked actually annoyed that the Italian bloke was speaking his native language in his country.

it's annoying when you go somewhere and the people don't speak english but have jobs where they surely deal with a lot of english people though.
I've found the people you wouldn't expect to speak english but can seem to be really proud of it as they tell you in english that you can speak english....
in a restaurant you won't expect it but you might expect them to have a menu in english language that you have to ask for


kinda funny when your in a foreign land and they have a lot of clothes in the shops with english writing on them because it's seen as "cool" but quite often the message makes no sense or has an obvious spelling error :p (I'm not talking cheap shops either)

I don't understand how things like this even make it on the news. Why give her the time?

Because of the bankers bonuses, the tories and brexit innit.

(Because a lot of stupid people read these articles and are easy to wind up, thus creating more clicks by more stupid people when the article is shared)
 
The problem with this is that if they start holidaying elsewhere the old dear will just be complaining that Bognor Regis is now full of filthy paella chompers. When she says "why can't they go on holiday somewhere else" what she means is "why can't all of these people stop being not British", though I suspect if she really thought about it that sentiment wouldn't extend to anybody beyond "Nutmeg Glow" on the Dulux colour chart.

The worst thing about this story is not that the woman complained, but that Thomas Cook have responded with two financial offers of compensation.

That's probably more related to them booking a ground floor room then being faced with stairs than anything to do with there being Spanish people there.
