Whilst walking along a coastal path in Cornwall last weekend I noticed that the good berghers of that wondrous county had taken to placing their canine turdage in plastic bags before hoying them into nearby trees. I couldnt quite grasp the peculiar mentality that would have you pick up your dogs crap, place it in a carrier bag and then chuck it in a bush. Me and the missus had fun spotting the blighters in amongst gorse and dangling from branches though. Odd people....the Cornish, not us. :))

Used to happen in Wales to. Never really knew why.

Your suggesting reuniting the dog's dropping with its owners via their letterbox reminds me of what one of my exes did to a local Pizza Hut near our uni. Him and his mates got tired of getting olives they didn't order. They took an envelope full of the olives they'd picked off their pizzas and returned them to the shop to see how the owner liked taking delivery of olives he didn't want. Still makes me laugh now.


And am I alone in revulsing at soft brown shit on the pavement, but having to turn my back on people who are picking up after their dog's mess with one of those little plastic bags? Think how warm it still is:(

    • I'd get rid of duty free shopping.  Nothing to do with tourist tax but something I hate.  All that glitz as you try to get through to Wetherspoons in the departure lounge.  No great savings over on line or even at times supermarkets, and the hypocrisy of selling cheap cancer sticks. Ok back to tourist tax  
    • If anyone is thinking of traveling a bit more and would like to supplement their trip by picking up a few family heirlooms from various ailing maiden aunts of mine, please drop me a private message. I'm particularly interested in anyone who is considering Colombia & Bolivia, The Golden Triangle region of South East Asia, Andalusia & North Africa or Rotterdam. And Liverpool.  
    • Wow I had no idea they give you 5% in perfume for your accommodation. You're right, I need to travel more. 
    • Do none of you go abroad.  Tourist taxes are really common in continental Europe and do vary a lot city by city. They are collected by the hotels/rental apartments. They are usually a  tiny part of your holiday costs.  In Narbonne recently we paid €1.30 per person per night.  The next town we went to charge 80 cents per person per night. By comparison Cologne is 5% of your accomodation.
