Brits now destroying their own tourism industry

Went out tonight to a carvery, 5 carvery meals and a drink each £51.00, cant complain at that.

No you can't

IME with carverys what you can complain about is the poor quality overcooked meat and the awful, lukewarm and stewed to a sulphurous pulp, vegetables.

We struggled to get something to eat a couple of weeks ago on they way back from Wales.
19:00 on a Sunday, first 2 restaurants said kitchen had already closed
They offered a microwaved soup of the day.
Their closing time at the door said 10pm
We ended up in a beefeater.
What sort of business sense is this???

A prime example of an oxymoron.

People are quitting tourism because British holiday makers, used to being impolite and abusive abroad, are now doing it at home.

"Some have been reduced to tears. Being on the receiving end of abusive behaviour day in, day out has led to mental health problems.

This seems to be the all new must have condition.

This seems to be the all new must have condition.

Ex servicemen have been committing suicide over it for decades. Slow on the uptake, munroast?

I imagine there is a big difference to fighting in a war zone and someone being unpleasant - pity the two are being compared

12 of us going for lunch to a Chinese buffet today. Total cost, including drinks, expecting to pay around £300 but the staff are brilliant, the food is always hot and delicious and, because it's a buffet, you can have as much as you want.

I applaud all those service people who bring mental health into the spotlight. Are you one of these who wishes it swept under the carpet and are happy for more suicides? Blow me down.....

This seems to be the all new must have condition.

W3nker.

You imagine all sorts of things. Many of them utter rubbish.

Here, for example, you seem to be imagining that "mental health problems" are a sort of binary condition, and that the only alternative to "none whatsoever" is "seriously suicide causing PTSD resulting from soldiering". No middle ground. No spectrum.

You seem to be imagining that if someone is made so miserable and depressed by the way they are treated in their job that it is causing them genuine distress that you have the right and the expertise to tell them that it does not.

Someone IMAGINED posts that never existed.
