Your brochure shows the sand as yellow but it was white.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>10. &#8220;Topless sunbathing on the beach should be banned. The holiday was ruined as my husband spent all day looking at other women.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>12. &#8220;No-one told us there would be fish in the sea.

It took the Americans only three hours to get home.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>17. &#8220;I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to our friends&#8217; three-bedroom apartment and ours was significantly smaller.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>18. &#8220;The brochure stated: &#8216;No hairdressers at the accommodation&#8217;. We&#8217;re trainee hairdressers &#8212; will we be OK staying there?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>19. &#8220;There are too many Spanish people. The receptionist speaks Spanish. The food is Spanish. Too many foreigners now live abroad.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>20. &#8220;We had to queue outside with no air-conditioning.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>21. &#8220;It is your duty as a tour operator to advise us of noisy or unruly guests before we travel.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>22. &#8220;I was bitten by a mosquito. No-one said they could bite.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>23. &#8220;My fianc\u00e9 and I booked a twin-bedded room but we were placed in a double-bedded room.<br \/>\nWe now hold you responsible for the fact that I find myself pregnant.
