Lost luggage cruise to HELL anger

Nottingham Post: Couple go on a cruise and DON'T get the fatal squirts, but still complain about lost luggage

Got the wrong Birmingham anger (plus follow-up)

Birmingham Mail: Couple lose their dream Las Vegas holiday because they booked their flights from Birmingham, Alabama instead of Birmingham, UK

This is the kind of Jeremy Kyle level idiocy upon which this country is built. Well done. Well done, everybody.

But wait, what's this coming up on the blind side? 

Coventry Telegraph: Wrong airport couple given a free Vegas holiday by Virgin in what is not - NOT - a publicity stunt

Well, shit on that --- where's my free holiday, Virgin?

This is how we ended up making celebrities out of TOWIE and Geordie Shore.

Holiday money anger

Manchester Evening News: Woman claims local bureau de change gave her fake 50 euro notes

Holiday inconvenienced, because nobody ever takes their bank cards abroad

And a traveller's tip: Never accept 50 euro notes for foreign travel. Would you walk about your home town paying for everything with a £50 note?

To be honest, yours looks like it's seen better days. (Must not mention hair Must not mention hair Must not mention hair Must not mention hair Must not mention hair)
