To feel completely deflated with British weekend aways…
I don’t mean to come across as ungrateful especially considering with what is going on at the moment with all the travel in the airports! This is one reason we booked a weekend away in the UK, just can’t win.
Everywhere and I mean everywhere is now totally understaffed. Prices have gone through the roof. Me and DP ordered a coffee and a tea- £9. X3 different places were working out between £9-£16 for just a tea and coffee. Weather crappy also
Everywhere also adds service charge.
I just wanted a little break while we could and we’ve had the worse time really. We are on our way home tomorrow and back to normality

I'm on a UK break now and not playing anything like that for tea and coffee. You're not at the Ritz, are you?

Currently on holiday in Bournemouth.
Everything seems so expensive.
Weather has been shite and there are so many homeless people here I'm shocked.
Prostitutes and junkies on every bench near our hotel.
Not the UK getaway I had imagined.
