My friend's holiday has been cancelled at the last minute.

She is coming to stay with us or a couple of days instead.

I wanted to recreate the all inclusive experience for her, but I've never been on one!

What should I include.

I'm thinking buffet breakfast, lunch and drinks on the work surface.

It's more a gesture than anything else so can be as silly as you like!

Hide a smart speaker in her room and play air conditioning noise, random doors banging and loud drunken voices in the night.

Great thread Grin

A tray out of pastries. All day. For her to take when she fancies.

Bottled water by her bed and a turn down service every night. Put chocolate on pillow.

Make a door hanging saying “service please” on one side and on the other “please do not disturb”

Oftenithinkaboutit · 26/10/2021 08:32

A room service menu. Left on her bed for when she arrives.

Update! She's on her way.

We have signs up, hot tub is in situ, pina colada in the fridge.

Tiny cans of pop on the bedside table and the crowing glory.

I've even made a Spotify playlist involving Una Paloma Blanca.

You are AWESOME

On her last day, make sure your friend is not travelling home until about 23:00 but chuck her out of her room at midday and cut off her wrist band.

Then totally trash your bathroom and leave old shampoo and shit, broken hairdryer and wet towels everywhere as the "curtesy suite" €25 each.

Jojo19834 · 26/10/2021 19:48

Love it!! Can I come and stay?!?

LIZS · 26/10/2021 19:48

Hope the playlist is on repeat! Volare, Birdie song, Agadoo ?

x2boys · 26/10/2021 19:49

Demand her passport on arrival and lock.it away untill her departure date
Clean her room at random intervals whilst talking loudly in Spanish
Everytime she takes a trip out of your front door get your neighbours to offer to braid her hair
Sprinkle just a little bit of sand everywhere just enough to be annoying ie on the bed sheets

puginamug · 26/10/2021 19:50

Actually we've just had our patio repointed so everywhere is quite 'gritty'

LittleBearPad · 27/10/2021 19:20

Wonderful!

PresidentJoey · 27/10/2021 20:17

Has the football been mentioned yet? It's not a holiday unless there's been a bit of Mancs v Scousers banter brawl Shock

ChristmasPlanning · 27/10/2021 22:22

Amazing swans!

You're such a lovely friend.

BeaLola · 27/10/2021 23:49

You are awesome - love the swans

Hope breakfast went well ?

When she's outside by the hot tub make sure someone goes round asking her if she'd like to partake of the spa offer.

Remove all toiletries when tidying bathroom and only give small towels out

Hungryinthefridge · 01/11/2021 12:21

How did it go? Or is she staying a while?
