Probe into holiday hotel sickness
« on: August 08, 2007, 06:48:32 AM »
Quote from: BBC Web Site
An examination is being carried out by a hygiene expert at a Caribbean hotel where dozens of UK holiday-makers have fallen ill during their stay.
The guests who have been taken sick are staying at the Bahia Principe San Juan hotel in the Dominican Republic.

Well, well, this is all news to me. I though having the trots for a week was part of the holiday experience if you visited The Dominican Republic! Friends of ours were hospitalised after a visit years and years ago (they?re out now though).  point:

Quote from: BBC Web Site
The Bembridges were discharged after two days and cut short their holiday to fly home.

But they claim hundreds of guests at the hotel complex have been affected by the bug and are desperate to leave but are still too ill to be declared fit to fly.


Hehehehe! You?ve got to feel sorry for the trolley dollies on return trips from the place haven?t you! Imagine meal times (although not many takers I ?spec) with all routes to the toilets blocked by meal and drinks carts!  happy001

Just been on the news all this.
Some random solicitor is representing a 'happy holiday maker' that went to this hotel 10 bloody years ago ffs, and he's still suffering from the original illness now!
Makes being skint and unable to afford these 'luxury' holidays appear quite preferable now tbh.
Butlins at Puthely again it is then.

The council probably stole it from Wales. BTW I now have to have a permit to go to the local waste dump/recyclilng place. This is to prevent people not of this county from dumping there. Now the non-county people who live a mile from this dump will have to drive 5 miles to their own!.

Idiocy.

Is that truely the case Nick or is the council just taking extra precautions after your last visit to the dump?
