Default Crappest Holidays

I went to Turkey a few years back and for me was like two weeks in Ethiopia. The food was appalling (it's hard to **** up a baked potatoe but a Turkish chef could manage it) everyone was ill and we got constant hassle from the locals, all day and all night. All in all I would sooner wrench my own balls off with my bare hands than go back there.

What was your worst holiday destination and why?

You are better off using sugar tongs for that.

I'd also have to say Dubai - everything is overpriced and most of the people are stuck up and only care about money or the appearance of having it. The racism there is quite amazing too.

Saying that I did go to Great Yarmouth once...

Actually I enjoyed Dubai as a holiday destination when I time off and had visitors. It was living there with all the traffic and other incumbent shite that did my head in.

And Skegness was cack.

Two weeks in a caravan at Sandy Bay, Exmouth aged 13 with the rain pouring down every single day. One of my best was a week in Ethiopia, no kidding. The food was great, weather superb and the people very friendly.

Where did you stay in Turkey ? Istanbul is one of my favourite (if not favouritist) cities in the world. Love the place, and the food is just fab.

I used to go to Ibiza every year for 6 years but the last time I went (2008) was to be the final time.

What a load of rubbish. The Euro rate didn't help but it totally took the p*ss..7EURO for a flat coke in a paper cup on the beach? 60EURO for Space??!! That'll be a 25% increase on 2007 then. Not to mention that the locals had clearly had enough, it has never really been service with a smile over there but last year was ridiculous. I rember getting shoo-ed out of El Divino toilets mid-pee the second the music cut.."time to go home...get the ***** OUT!!! I need to clean!!!"

No more dancing on the tables on Bora Bora beach either..."health and safety regulations".....

Ibiza was pretty good, but we are talking a few years ago.

My last year there was 1999.

You know it's time to stop going when you are older than everyone else in the club..
