A recent survey by online holiday website sunshine.co.uk revealed some of the most bizarre complaints made by holidaymakers this year.

Some of the highlights included…

• A British family that told of their distress at the sunny weather in Portugal and complained that they were too “hot and sweaty” in their holiday clothes. Try wear shorts and a t-shirt!

• One irritated man complained at the number of plain black suitcases on the airport carousel, making it difficult for him to find his own plain black suitcase! He should have got one of those bright pink bands to put around it!

• Following a trip to a local theme park, a lady wrote to complain that the log flume ride made her feet wet and that the sun melted her ice cream too quickly.  A log flume that gets you wet, surely not?

• A couple criticised the excellent children’s entertainment at their resort – it was so good in fact that their children didn’t want to spend any time with their parents. Oh dear

• A couple claimed that the lunchtime cocktails at their resort were surprisingly strong, leaving them rather the worse for wear during the afternoon. Cocktails usually contain alcohol – best the check the small print.
