In the beginning I thought I was in control - a birthday present here( coasters... oh yes coasters no less) a small item of clothing there (a skirt with decorative buttoms - yes I should have seen the danger). But I thought I could handle it.


Oh they were clever, yes ... I'd walk past and see lights in the window and things I liked and before I knew it I'd be inside, my heart beating, my temperature slightly raised as I picked up a silk photo album. OH yes I said it was a present for a friend - I made my excuses - but we all know what's going on here don't we....It's the way they get the young that really gets to me - I'm not sure if I'm ready to reveal this but I'm going to try - I've seen booties, books and a tambourine, I mean the horror, the horror!


We must do something about this while we still can...

It's not my cup of tea either so I just won't go in there - end of story. If it makes other people happy - good for them. It does seem that saying that you either like something or don't like something is so fraught. Nothing is ever going to please all the people all of the time.

      Taxes

      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

      Taxes

      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.
