Probably not, but offenders against children or the vulnerable are not well liked by "normal" criminals who have their own ways of dealing with such people.   

Normal criminals are no better than the ones committing these offences - let's face it - they are all scum.

[Pendragon]

yes Dave but it's a fact these drug dealer etc do think they are morally superior to those who pick on the vulnerable which is why such people are segregated in the first place.

[Fester]

Distressing though it might be... lets be blunt,  the perpetrators will face little more than a suspended sentence, (or a fine, seeing as Ken Clarke doesn't want people to be locked up anymore...different categories of rape remember??)

They will most likely appeal, and get £2 milion compensation, like Sharon Shoesmith.

There is precious little reason to be law abiding these days ... the consequences are negligible, and I reckon we are all (including the police) SICK OF IT.

Well, there's an element of truth in that, providing you're happy to live without insurance, Bank accounts or credit cards, spend repeated visits in jail, live with your only 'friends' those who would steal from their parents, loved ones and you, spend your entire existence looking over your shoulder and are happy never to trust another human being as long as you live. Other than those insignificant niggles, it's a great life.

Here you go...
Some genuine complaints made to Thomas Cook Travel Agents in recent years...   Enjoy.. (my favourite No 19)

From Thomas Cook Holidays - listing some guests' complaints during the
season.


1. "I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local store
does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts."

2.  "It's lazy of the local shopkeepers to close in the afternoons. I
often needed to buy things during 'siesta' time - this should be  banned

3. "On my holiday to Goa in India, I was disgusted to find that almost
every restaurant served curry.  I don't like spicy food at all."

4. "We booked an excursion to a water park but no-one told us we had to
bring our swimming costumes and towels."

5. A tourist at a top African game lodge over looking a water hole, who
spotted a visibly aroused elephant, complained that the sight of this
rampant beast ruined his honeymoon by making him feel "inadequate".

6. A woman threatened to call police after claiming that she'd been
locked in by staff. When in fact, she had mistaken the "do not disturb"
sign on the back of the door as a warning to remain in the room.

7. "The beach was too sandy."

8. "We found the sand was not like the sand in the brochure. Your
brochure shows the sand as yellow but it was white."

9. A guest at a Novotel in Australia complained his soup was too thick
and strong. He was inadvertently slurping the gravy at the time.

10. "Topless sunbathing on the beach should be banned. The holiday was
ruined as my husband spent all day looking at other women."

11. "We bought' Ray-Ban' sunglasses for five Euros from a street
trader, only to find out they were fake."

12. "No-one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children were
startled."

13. "There was no egg slicer in the apartment..."

14. "We went on holiday to Spain and had a problem with the taxi
drivers as they were all Spanish..."

15. "The roads were uneven.."

16. "It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to England it only
took the Americans three hours to get home."

17. "I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to our friends'
three-bedroom apartment and ours was significantly smaller."

18. "The brochure stated:  'No hairdressers at the accommodation’.
We’re trainee hairdressers - will we be OK staying there?"

19.  "There are too many Spanish people. The receptionist speaks
Spanish. The food is Spanish. Too many foreigners now  live abroad'"

20. "We had to queue outside with no air conditioning."

21. "It is your duty as a tour operator to advise us of noisy or unruly
guests before we travel."

22. "I was bitten by a mosquito - no-one said they could bite."

23. "My fiancé and I booked a twin-bedded room but we were placed in a
double-bedded room. We now hold you responsible for the fact that I
find myself pregnant. This would not have happened if you had put us in
the room that we booked."

Well off to yet another PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) tribunal today.  I think it's disgusting these ex-soldiers have to go begging cap in hand to get a half decent war pension.   :rage: :rage: :rage:

[Nemesis]

Good posting Fester
One or two local complaints:-
1) The sun was in the wrong place.
2) The seaside is always windy.
3) We got splashed on a boat trip in the bay.
4) There is too much goat poo on the Great Orme.
5) People here speak Welsh.
6) The road signs are in Welsh as well as English and it is confusing.

Last night the people opposite were going in and out of the front door at 9pm and they also had a takeaway delivered !!!
The last comment was delivered to me this morning-------wonder what I was expected to do?

[Trojan]

wonder what I was expected to do?

Go around town with a roll of masking tape. 

[Nemesis]

Phew- you cannot please some people.

[Merddin Emrys]

Phew- you cannot please some people.

Thats why we stopped doing B&B, some of the punters were just so irritating, not good when you are like a cross between Basil Fawlty and Victor Meldrew  

[stephenprudence]

I'm going to Llandudno tomorrow, part pleasure, part job hunting.  Z**

[Fester]

What sort of work are you looking for SP?  Seasonal?

[stephenprudence]

Apologies for this very late reply... I'm looking for permanent.

I have applied for a fair few, I hope something comes off.

Believe it or not, there are more jobs available in the humble town of Llandudno than in Wirral!

[Pendragon]

Just had this post on Facebook thought I'd pass it on

IMPORTANT MESSAGE anyone in colwyn bay , Llandudno junction , mochdre, Llandudno and surrounding area watch out, there are lads with pit bulls stealing cats and rabbits and watching the dogs chase and rip the animal to pieces! Police have been informed it was happening in Wrexham, but looks like they have moved areas.

A friend says a cat had been killed in Junction last night, police were called.  He's heard nothing yet.  He thinks the dog was a Staff- Shame Staffs are excellent dogs one of my favourite breeds but lethal in the wrong hands.

[TheMedz]

I personally think this item should be in the SCUM section. As a cat owner it makes my blood boil to think that some mindless b*st*rds think it's good fun to make their dogs to do it. If there is a judgement day then with things like this going on  gratefully I'll be nowhere near the front of the queue.
