Whitesupraboy2 Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 well i went on a holiday to magaluf with 6 mates. we went to aiya napa last year so we knew what to expect....well thought so!!! the hotel looked good and clean and to be honest wasn't bad then we started to meet people. everyone was from up north, that doesnt bother me. What bothers me is F**ing this F***ing that....constantly. All really loud and up for a fight. The nights out...well.....if i see another PR in my life ill kill them! also it was just blackpool with sun and bit of heat!! nothing wrong with blackpool for one night, thats great. after a week my retina's were getting burnt. Then there is just the general rudeness of all the people. We were in the waterpark getting some food and the guy in front asked for water but it wasnt cold enough....so he said 'this aint F***ing cold enough i want another' so she got him another still wasnt cold enough so he said ' if you were a f***ing bloke id of knocked your f***ing head off by now' .........WTF!!! no please,thank you or even a nice tone! next day got up went for walk along along beach and there was a family, mum,dad 10 yr old son and daughter must of been 16. The daughter said to her mum 'I should of F***ed that bloke last night mum' and the mum just said 'ohh well there's other nights' ....i was just purely shocked!! everybody there was football mad at 4 am in morning i do not want to hear football songs being sung across from rangers supporters to Newcastle supporters like im in the terraces! also people come rolling in at 6am and wake u up again. They done a bloody fire alarm check at 8am in the morning All the locals looked depressed to be living there and i now know why the english have such a bad name as yobs. We found some guys from southampton in apartment above, they went home early as well and another guy from london had been a week and was meant to stay for 3 weeks but he said he couldnt take it. The women were just as bad as the blokes to be honest. We found a club for norweigen / scandanvians and it was only good place to get away from it all. All the women we spoke to from places in Europe thought all English people were yobs and arseholes and i dont blame them! On plus side ill get my euro's changed up, probably go back to work and save some cash! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 You reckon people haven't had the same experience with Southern Shandy drinkers? I drove through Magaluf once. Awful place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyJawa Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Welcome to the British abroad, no wonder we have such a rep. Its worst in spain for people like this, makes you embarrased to be from here. Gotta love that package holidays allow the pikey chav scum to be able to afford to go abroad....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted July 27, 2005 Author Share Posted July 27, 2005 didnt even go on package holiday mate, thats annoying part my dad's from birmingham, he called us southern shandy drinkers too! lol another experience playing crazy golf on a family course and there were groups of blokes just swearing there heads off!! its been a real eye opener!!

Gaz Walker Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Geordies on holiday can be absolute animals, when you get a lot of them it gets interesting! But as others have commented it isn't just those up north at fault. I've been embarassed many a time seeing the English abroad! Gaz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burna Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 We found a club for norweigen / scandanvians and it was only good place to get away from it all. All the women we spoke to from places in Europe thought all English people were yobs and arseholes and i dont blame them! Think I know that bar, it used to be right up the top of the main drag then turn left, we used to go there to keep sane! In the end I just drink mainly in backstreet bars with workers and locals, couldn't be bothered dealing with the hassle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I nearly ended up getting in a fight with a right nasty piece of work on holiday once. Irish bloke and woman in the next apartment. He'd come home really pissed and start swearing, arguing smashing stuff up, threatening his wife etc. I went round and hammered on the door telling them to shut up the first night. The second night I ended up getting the security guards up to sort him out as he was a right nasty piece of work. Certainly ruined the charm of the Irish accent for me. (Northern, not southern) Thankfully there was only a two day cross over between us. Another time we had a couple next door and the girl had the most noisy orgasm I've ever heard. Really moaning like in the movies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 You get used to people assuming you're a football hooligan when you live abroad. Our reputation is widespread... Most of the women I've spoken to here think the English are yobs, try to persuade them we're not all wankers... I found most Swedish women really like the English, I had a great time there. God, I'd do anything for a contract back in Stockholm, what a place !! :) I went to Magaluf when I was 18, sounds like it hasn't changed. Don't waste your time, go on Lastminute and find somewhere the package holiday scum haven't ruined yet. There's a lot more to the world than the Costa del Chav....

michael Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 You went to Magaluf.... I thought people went there for the experience you described? Respectable types (like my good self) go elsewhere to avoid the brits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoboblio Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I know exactly what you mean mate.. we went to Magaluf in October one year and it was superb... warm, chilled out, calm with a great and friendly nightlife.... went there in July the next year and it was utter rubbish... like you say, full of lager louts. I know that sounds strange coming from someone who loves to go out and get drunk, but there's a word of difference between proper clubbers and the scum that you get over there in the summer.

Kopite Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Thank god there was no-one there from Middlesbrough...!! but yeah your right, those Geordies.... too right! that's why i don't bother goin on these types of holidays, i would deffo end up in a few fights!

Mike Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Are you from the boro then Kopite? or just living there? Middlesbough does have it's own brand of drinking culture....! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulrenn Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Sorry to hear about your holiday Yep, head to Scandinavia, unless you're a chavster in which case please head directly to Southend, do not pass Go and do not collect your dole money (also do not leave the country again, thanks). I don't understand these people. Why aim to be the lowest common denominator when you could aim to be a BBC World news reader instead?! My views on life in the UK have been documented on here before but every time I go back to the UK I can visibly and audibly tell it is worse than the previous occasion. Is it really any wonder that society is imploding??? I've sworn never to live there again unless I can live well outside the city and Toyota promise to build me a fleet of Supras to my exact specification Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicmatty Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Yeah, sorry about your cr4p holiday too.....You have to admit though its the same worldwide...Northerners, southerners, Midlanders, Londoners it makes no difference, each appears to annoy the others equally. (Especially S - No I wouldnt like to offend) But its definately not just "English" its "British" - by the way Sadly most of the world is becoming "Little Britains" now, I usually try to head off the beaten track to find these "Undiscovered places" but they too are dissapearing under piles of chips, gravy and burgers TRY: Yugoslavia - Nice (Not many Brits yet) Bulgaria - Great - (Still fairly undiscovered) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sakura Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Didn't Magaluf have such a bad reputation that they demolished the whole resort a few years ago, and then rebuilt it? Sounds like they shouldn't have bothered to rebuild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmaw Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Are you from the boro then Kopite? or just living there? Middlesbough does have it's own brand of drinking culture....! I'm from the boro, me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmaw Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 What gets me is that many people criticise muslims or other minorities in this country for not 'fitting in' with the accepted way of life in the UK, no matter how small or trivial. However 'badly' these minorities behave while here in the UK, their behaviour is nothing compared to the English abroad, as can be witnessed in this very thread. Don't mean to get political. Let's get back to slagging ourselves off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmaw Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 And for 'unspoilt holiday' ideas it depends what you want. If you want beautiful women (you have to go there to believe it) and cheap beer (they have yet to learn that taxing beer won't stop people drinking the stuff), go to any of the Eastern bloc countries like Ukraine or Lithuania. Totally unspoilt and not a burger bar in sight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I'm from the boro, me. Sorry to hyjack the thread, and sorry about your terrible holiday but... Nice to meet you Hogmaw... so you managed to run away as well then!? I do miss it 'like'... these southerns are an odd bunch aren't they..?
