Thanks Billy.

It rained constantly, No sunbathing, no boys to chat up and not much to do there.
We returned to find we were locked out of the B&B at 10.30 pm with all the lights turned off and no one was answering the door.
Eventually the neighbour came out of his house and told us that the landlady was out for the whole night and had left her son in charge and he was drunk as a skunk.
The neighbour and his wife allowed us to sleep in their spare bedroom. A huge risk taken by them but we were extremely grateful.
It took the whole of the next day before the landlady returned to get into the B&B to get our stuff back and leave. We didn't have to pay the bill and she apologised for her son.
Dirty place full of rude French people and a large amount of dog poo .
Eiffel Tower plagued by beggars . Rip off prices .
Never again will I set foot in that toilet of a place .
Sacre Bleur :eek:
That was exactly my gripe with Paris too. Why don't they do somethiong about those wretched beggars and trash salesmen under the Eiffel tower? As for the dog poo it was everywhere.
And apart from the escalators the Pompidou Centre once inside it was an expensive dull tacky rip off.
People were lovely but the food was awful, I was sick 11 out of the 14 days ( and I have a cast iron constitution!) .
Place was absolutely filthy, beaches non existent and everywhere looked like an abandoned building site.
Blackpool. Its just not a nice place.
Also it wasn't the worst place but we went to Bulgaria in 2011 my husband and 3 of our girls all early teens. It wasn't what I expected. We walked past a few bars a man was standing out side and said pizza for the ladies lap dance for the man. Lol. We were like . . . What lol
Its a very seedy place not what we were expecting
It was actually a pretty good holiday if you like "lying by the pool" sort of holidays but I found it ridiculously expensive and, aside from a couple of tourist towns, the whole place was a barren wasteland so there wasn't much to do.
I guess I was a bit spoiled cos my parents always used to holiday in non-touristy parts of Spain which was dirt-cheap and had superb public beaches so it really hacked me off to go somewhere that I had to pay to get onto a beach and where a meal cost £30-odd and the only thing to do was to attend paid "events".
Agreed.
I also hated the South of France but I think that was more to do with the fact I was really ill and stuck in a tent than the place!
For those on here who complain about the supposed poverty and slavery over here. I suggest you take a trip. I'm pretty sure 99% of them would swap with you and happily pay for an under occupied bedroom, rather than sleep with 9 other people in a tin shack.
Austria, fell badly and dislocated my left shoulder on day two, spend day three in my room in plaster and just wanting to go home, day four I was able to go home, and never want to go back.
Morocco because of the incessant people trying to sell you stuff you don't want, also it was not long after 9/11 so there were hardly any tourists there and it felt quite oppressive, barely saw any local women out etc. Got ripped off in the souk buying some mirrors as presents, when they packed them up for me they left out half. Generally hated the food as well and how everyone just wants to sell you things constantly.
Greece wasn't great either, found it mostly half built, the men were all pervy, plumbing awful. Lost half a stone in a week because I didn't like the food.
