Earlier this year I won a 2 week holiday for 2 plus spending money, courtesy of my car insurance company.

On August 23rd me and my pal flew to Guernsey looking forward to sun, sand sea and the odd pint of falling down water :-)

We arrived, it was fine, sun shining a gentle breeze nary a cloud in the sky.

We checked in the hotel, I kid you not the single beds were so narrow they must have been measured for anorexic stick insects. So narrow that my pal fell out of bed on the first night and slept on the sofa for the rest of the holiday.

The hotel food was "meh", the waitstaff were double "meh" and the shower ran hot for about 10 mins after which it ran at -15 for the rest of the day. Despite our complaints sweet bugger all was done about this.

Food in Guernsey is so freaking expensive if it hadn't have been for the money I got we would have lived on chips and batter scraps for 2 weeks.

A crab salad was around £50 and don't ask about lobster prices.

WEATHER.
Out of 14 days we had 4 of decent weather, the rest of the time it either hissed down or was bloody blowing a gale and quite cold....I'm 66 and feel the cold, right in my bones innit?

It's safe to say that when I got home I hugged my double bed with a passion, wept tears of joy in the shower.

It's also safe to say that I doubt I'll ever visit Guernsey again, free or not
 
know the feeling, you've probably read my post about gran canaria. Lesson learned: you get what you pay for. I now book early and save what I can,
 
The fact you won a holiday from your car insurance should have set the alarm bells ringing from the start.

Next time, each month put a few quid away from your pay packet and pay for your own holiday hth

Went to Turkey, Marmaris, a few years ago with my then girlfriend. We broke up half way through the week, now THAT was a monumentally shite holiday, which obviously got all the more better having to share a hotel room once we'd split!!!

Did you cop for owt else though in the second half of the week or was it just her that did?

Did you get back together? Surely you'd've got only two options in a situation like that and they are to fuck off round turkey on your own or fuck off home

God no, didn't want anything more to do with her! Unfortunately I still have to see her from time to time now as she's really close friends with my sister-in-law, she was her chief bridesmaid when she married my brother.
I went for option number three, fuck off on my own for most of the day/night getting pissed, then crash on the sofa (or, if really pissed and back to the room before her, crash in the bed, which REALLY pissed her off when she got back in!)

To be fair Matty, if I was you, and I had only myself as company, I can imagine it being monumentally shit as well

At least you could have closed your eyes, felt up your moobs, and imagined you'd pulled a really fat bird.

I can't decide if you're drunk or just plain stupid after reading your post which must be in the top 5 of the most idiotic posts ever.....on any message board.

Why in the name of God would a holiday won from my car insurance company set off alarm bells?

I won the bloody holiday and I chose the hotel (which obviously was a bad choice)

It appears that your reading and comprehension abilities are somewhat impaired, I stated I'm 66, as such I'm retired so what is this pay packet of which you speak?.
