Yeah, why the hell do people do that?

Anyone who does this please let us know.

Got a problem with our new bathroom suite. Not a functioning problem more a, shall we say, aesthetic one.

The new toilet leaves a shitty stain every single time after I take a dump. OK,  sometimes that does involve a mighty load, but after forking out a grand I don't see why I have to delve into the watery depths with the loo brush all the time.

The previous bog, albeit avocado in hue, never had this problem.

Apologies to anyone having their breakfast.

Yep full on F1 racing in our new ones as well, whoever signed off the design, didn't do a full user acceptance test.

A lot of new ones have a german style shelf that typically is what gets smeared as the shit hits it and streaks on its way down. Couple that woth modern flushes being quite wussy for water saving sms yu have a recipe for shitty toilet.

Why don't they coat toilet bowls with teflon?

The person that i took there did that.
Rang and rang to be answered with "we are busy at the moment,please call later"

Were they reporting something, or was it something that required going there physically?

I've been looking to book a holiday recently so have been spending quite a bit of time reading Trip Advisor reviews. The amount of people that moan about the lack of wi-fi in hotel reviews is infuriating. You're on holiday FFS!

Have to disagree there. Iff in one place i use it to work out trips out for the next day etc, and if travelling around its a great help for sorting trains,hotels, coaches whatever.  Certainly way easier than 15 years ago when you'd be using a 5 year old lonely planet and trying to work out what currency fits in a phone box.

Do people not converse in person any more. While Wi-Finis convenient, it's making many of us extremely self absorbed. What's wrong with asking the hotel to recommend a place to go....

In the first instance, because they aren't local who work in hotels as a rule. Secondly on the travelling about bit. I have been in Singapore trying to book a hotel in Bali, or Darwin and looking for one in Adelaide, or Perth etc etc. It's just so much easier, it's great for that, but I do agree on the conversing bit in general. Best bet is logon wifi, do what you need in 30 seconds, and then spend the 4 hours it would have taken getting shitfaced with the locals Wink

I get you, wholeheartedly for the purposes you mention. It's a poisoned chalice somewhat and if you are looking for a connecting onward flight then yes the local bar keep will be slightly perplexed.

I have a somewhat more relaxed approach to holiday plans (I do like to get about), but I will take things at a very slow pace  Pint

Cut the attitude and allow those who use the road for their business a little slack. You arseholes.
