Bet her a second bottle of gin that she couldn't get a snooker ball in her mouth more like it. ;)

Mrs GROWLER has head injury (concussion and cut) and jaw needs re-aligning/ sorting /removing/boarding up/ whatever. ::)
Miss GROWLER is recovering from a 'never heard of before in this resort' jelly fish attack. ::)
GROWLER jnr has brought a Greek cold home with him, which will no doubt be passed on to me shortly. ::)
I've got a cut arm and wrenched shoulder after falling over whilst inspecting a disused quarry, prior to engaging in a bit of 'motorsport' in the hire car, the idea of which was subsequently abandoned after threats of violence from Mrs GROWLER. ::)

Constant storms, streets turned into raging rivers,  power cuts, interupted footie watching, no rugby at all, and interupted F1 debacle watching.

Row over taking the hire car back 2 hours late, when Greeko tried to charge me for an extra days hire. I didn't pay. evil:

Words 'exchanged' at Manchester airport when i questioned why I was being searched and fisked, when it appeared no one else was. Told to shut up by Mrs GROWLER.

Having to listen to the constant whinging whining Brits complaining about the weather, seemingly blaming the tour operator and reps!


The ale was good though, even if it has gone up in price since the last visit, and it was a all a bit of a laugh and experience...i think. confused:

All is well then?

Fingers crossed Mrs. Growler will have her jaw wired-up for the next six weeks…  happy088

Shame you didn’t venture a few miles further – the weather has been fantastic here.  whistle:

Probably the most piss boiling moment for me, was when we went to this little resort at the far and of the island on one of the few sunny afternoons we had, to admire the stunning views whilst eating an ice cream on the little beach.
Had just sat down, hankey on head with me jeans rolled up when i heard this loud laughter, splashing noise, with the accompniant sound of loud quacking.

Turned around, and there were 2 loud mouthed brits in their mid 20's i'd guess, throwing stones at a gaggle of ducks who had previously just serenly passed us on the calm water, much to the GROWLERS jnr's delight.

Mrs GROWLER had to hold me back from going over to them to advise them to stop as she noticed that they appeared to be from a group of about 30 who were sitting at a nearby beachside taverna.

What made it worse was that the locals appeared to be just sitting by and doing nothing, as these moronic breath wasting cretins carried on with hurling their missiles.

BRITISH BASTARDS. evil:
You can't even escape from their anti social disgusting behaviour whilst you're abroad ffs. Scum. sick2:

Ring the cops p'raps?
Only saw 2 the whole time we were there tbh, and they were at the airport 25 miles away. ::)

No. The cleaners who then came back panicking thinking...I suppose...that we were going to try and get a free trip to Disneywerld out of them. ::)

I told them not to worry, and that Mrs GROWLER was an incompitent baffoon who should have been more careful imo....she was out of earshot at the time. ;)

No, she doesn't / didn't deserve sympathy. We eneded up wasting about 5 hours due to her inability to tread carefully on a wet floor. ::)

Miss GROWLER'S incident with a jelly fish was far more disconcerting however. Not her fault, and the marks and pain it left her in were of some considerable concern. Some of those useless wobbly creatures can kill ffs, or at least create a nasty allergic reaction. Difficult to assess when you haven't actually seen the creature concerned.
