Towel sculpting

On holiday- Tui package. All very nice and having a lovely time. But - I hate these shapes/animals etc they make out of your towels! Part of the fun of being on holiday is the joy of having a freshly laundered ironed towel each day - not a crumpled piece of towelling you then have to shake out to use…. Am I being unreasonable?

I hate it too. We stayed at the shard recently and were greeted to two swans on th4 bed, which is nice, sure, but you just need to remove them,but they did provide other towels in the bathroom,

however the very very worst is flower petals and words on the bed, that makes such a mess and takes ages to pick off,

I can fold towels into bunnies.

It’s not my only skill but it’s the one I’m most proud of.

I know what you mean, but on the plus side, I found that the swan's beak was perfectly shaped for drying those 'awkward to get at' crevices.

I love it myself, it tends to only be the hand towel

I like my towels hung on a heated radiator and neatly aligned (think like in the film Sleeping with the Enemy).

On my last visit to Málaga we had towels in the shape of a fruit platter each day, it took up the entire bed to begin with. Think they got fed up towards end of week as it was just a banana and 2 apples and I thought someone had left a willy
