Get the men a den Doe, :rofl :rofl
Theres only 2 of us in this house but 4 TVs!
We even have 2 at the caravan. :yikes
It will be available on catchup tomorrow,
It was an interesting programme and the lovely family who were burnt in Marmaris emphasised the importance of not travelling without travel insurance. :really

I watched it :tup

:yuck at the state of the kitchens in Cavelier hotel Miami - I just knew they'd find a mouse :(

I wanted them to go and see the 2 young girls who had to move hotel due to a break-in. It would have been interesting to hear their opinion on the move.

The front restaurant at the Cavelier Hotel looked lovely but I bet if the customers could see the kitchen they would run a mile. :yikes :rofl :rofl

That's exactly what I thought Jay, I'd have sat down at one of their tables with the Crab salad selection etc on offer and the flames flickering - just shows you doesn't it that some places are 'all kippers and curtains' :rofl

Not too keen on the programme, much prefered the old style holiday programmes that showed you the resorts.

Thought they let the manager of that hotel in Rhodes off the hook!!!!
Also I'd like to know if the hossies featured were public or private clinics - looked remarkably well equipped and the lass with the broken arm being whisked straight thru' for an X-Ray???????

I've seen Juanada hospital (Majorca) before on Sun, Sea and A&E it's a private hospital Dave, but the care has always been really good.

I had to laugh at that show last night when they were in Juanada Hospital with the lady with the broken wrist; the presenter said "I'm impressed, she was in, seen, diagnosed and treated all within 40 minutes" I finished that sentance off with "how's that compared to the **** you have of an NHS!"

I found it a bit boring last night, but I like seeing the beach scenes, gets me in the mood for holidays :)

Quite good tonight I thought. The tip about using a saline nasal spray pre flight to help guard against airborne infections was helpful :tup

Also glad to see that the Malibu Park in Tenerife took on-board the inspectors advice. Not so happy with the Domincan Republic hotel that basically sent them packing...........Urgh at the kitchen area in that hotel :(

Not just abroad do you get these types of dirty kitchen, with my job I get to see many places that Joe public don't and one of the very worst kitchens and back scenes was a 5 star hotel from a very well known hotel group, it looks lovely out front and in all the public areas.

You wouldn't think they'd dare what with all the drop in health inspectors, did you report them?
