Quirky Tuesday

19 of the most ridiculous complaints made by holidaymakers to their travel agent.

• "The beach was too sandy."
• A guest at a Novotel in Australia complained his soup was too thick and strong. He was inadvertently slurping the gravy at the time.
• "Topless sunbathing on the beach should be banned. The holiday was ruined as my husband spent all day looking at other women."
• "We bought 'Ray-Ban' sunglasses for five euros (£3.50) from a street trader, only to find out they were fake."
• "No-one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children were startled."
• "It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to England it only took the Americans three hours to get home."
• "My fiancé and I booked a twin-bedded room but we were placed in a double-bedded room. We now hold you responsible for the fact that I find myself pregnant. This would not have happened if you had put us in the room that we booked."
• "I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to our friends' three-bedroom apartment and ours was significantly smaller."
• "The brochure stated: 'No hairdressers at the accommodation'. we're trainee hairdressers - will we be OK staying here?"

• "We had to queue outside with no air conditioning
• "I was bitten by a mosquito - no-one said they could bite
• "It's lazy of the local shopkeepers to close in the afternoons. I often needed to buy things during 'siesta' time - this should be banned."
