A DISAPPOINTING HOLIDAY

Good afternoon.

Good afternoon, madam.

I'm interested in the holiday in Saint Cuthbert.

Ah, yes... the Caribbean! I can recommend it highly.

Can you tell me a little more about it?

Of course, madam. It's an excellent package holiday. You'll

travel on a scheduled flight. You'll be met at the airport and

taken to your hotel. You won't have to pay airport taxes.

They are included in the price. The hotel is very near the

beach, and it's got a swimming pool and a disco. It's a very

modern hotel, it was built last year. The restaurant's superb,

and drinks are very cheap. Oh, and you can walk to the sea

in two minutes.

Hmm... It sounds good. I'd like to make a reservation. One moment, madam and I'll get you a booking form. Marion paid a deposit and booked the holiday. Two months later she was in Saint Cuthbert. But she was disappointed. When she returned to England, she went to see the travel agent.

Ah! It's Mrs. Ward. Did you have a good holiday? No, I certainly did not have a good holiday. Oh, I'm very sorry to hear that. What was wrong? Well, when I arrived in Saint Cuthbert, I had to spend four hours at the airport — you said that we would be met, and we weren't. You also said we would be taken to the hotel. We weren't and the taxi cost about £12. You told me that airport taxes were included. In fact I had to pay £10. Oh, dear... you had a very bad start. But the hotel was nice, wasn't it?

because the workmen were working all night on our bal­cony! You said it had got a swimming pool. It had... but it was empty. And the restaurant... the restaurant served fish every night. Oh, dear...

You said that the hotel was near the beach, and that we could walk to the sea in two minutes. Couldn't you?

Well, yes... we could... but there was an oil refinery between the hotel and the beach, and it took half an hour to walk round it.

Oh, I'm really terribly sorry. We really didn't know... I'm afraid we're unable to give you a refund, but we can give you a ten per cent discount on next year's holiday... Next year! Next year I'm staying in England!
