Not long now

[Guest]

Well I used to be a tattoist moni before it ruined my eyes.

Had a first today which I hope never gets repeated swam upto the bar with the missus and our friends ordered a drink, that's all I did honest and the barman was slicing a lemon at the time looked me in the eyes without smiling and did the slit your throat gesture with the knife my missus grabbed my arm so I know I wasn't imagining it I looked at my friends and they looked shocked too, then he did it again still not smiling so it wasn't a joke we left the bar and went to another. None of us know what that was about, we discussed it at length. It has somewhat spoilt our holiday as we were looking forward to the swim up bar. Needless to say we won't be using that bar again.

'WOW' what a bummer.

I know some individuals feel threatened by skin art.

However if he does that to everyone with a tattoo, that bar won't be getting used very much!

I would have said report him, but it's not worth the time out of your stay there.

Don't let it spoil your holiday, he's just a small minded individual.

[monica]

oh no, thats just a shame, i feel for you,just find out what days he is on, or his times,

and work around him,again i dont say what i think lucky in a lady,

how cool is that ,you being a artist, better to try on your shelf

my older brother got one some how ,and guess what and who was the guinea pig,

but i did wont any way,,

well what i think is you can forget about that one and just enjoy holi,and have a few for us

[Guest]

I am not going to let it spoil my hol, my missus however is now in protective mode I am not allowed to put the towels out on my own or in fact go to the loo on my own. It's nice she cares so much but I am a grown man. I have decided if he's on the bar or not I am using it, there is more than one barman and if he does it again I will report him, I just find it all incredible we never said a word to him I've never met him before and I would never insult anyone or be rude I am just not like that. So what is his problem.

[monica]

who know, you always get one bad egg were ever you go, just enjoy the rest off your hol,and have fun ,

and look forward to see you back again

take care, cheers,

[Guest]

Thanks moni I intend to an uneventful day so far just chilling by the pool, so relaxing.

Nice to hear you're chilling Ken, but I would report him, that is no excuse-if he has issues regarding tattoo's or your colour, religion then he shouldn't be in a job serving tourists. That is a threat of death made against you Ken...not something to be taken lightly-first off report to your travel agent rep/company.

Yes maybe your right Si rep is off today, this is rapidly turning into a c'"@ hol first off we booked to rooms next to eachother and even emailed to make sure but us and our friends are on separate floors we had to ask 3 times for an extra pillow(my missus suffers from A,R,D, ) we booked a meal at thier al a cart restaurant for tonight and Thursday when we went there we was told it was booked for tomorrow when we asked to see the booking forms we are booked in both al a cart restaurant's for tomorrow at the same time and the head waiter just showed us the door and walked off, also we asked and for a safe 6 times now and still waiting. Was told they were out of towels for thecsun bed yesterday yet we paid £20.00 deposit for them. Won't be back here again, I can tell you that.

[eddiesolo]

That is awful mate, you have to complain, it is your hard earned money wasted and a holiday experience ruined...not good mate, sorry you're having a bit if a rubbish time.

Si.

I would get onto the rep, and demand to be booked into another Hotel.

If they won't do that I would demand that they get me a flight home immediately, and make sure you see the rep write the complaint down.

Had a similar experience in Turkey a few years ago, when a member of the bar staff took a dislike to me for some reason. We complained to the management

who took he barman's side. Finally ended up with me dropping him, when he deliberately barged between my wife and myself. With plenty of witnesses

to back up the incident, we were moved to another hotel.

When back home you should make an official complaint to your tour provider.

Maybe your right gregg but not cutting my hol short for some t"'@.

Went out from hotel today found a great restaurant called the Rovers Return, don't get me wrong I don't believe in going abroad and eating English food, they do have an English menu but we stuck to the traditional stuff great food refreshingly friendly staff and great service 3 course meal including all 4 of us having steak copious drinks all for less than £25 a head can't recommend them highly enough well worth a visit if in yasmin hammet.

Was talking to another couple who came yesterday (no tattoos) the chap had same treatment I got with the knife, the bloke was scared to leave the hotel been to rep with them and apparently not the first complaint. Had the waiter in he said, "he was scared thought tatts were from prison" but other bloke not got any so that didn't wash, he was sacked there and tyen, poor bloke (Paul the other customer was scared really bad) in his mid 20s with his girlfriend still scared to go out so persuaded them to come out with us tonight still won't use this hotel again with all the other trouble (they offered to move our rooms together) but we don't want the bother of packing and then unpacking again so will stay where we are. Why are there so many pratts about.

His explanation on his actions is just nonsense-why should he feel threatened by tattoos? It was more than that, this forum isn't the place for politics-but that was a clear signal towards foreigners.

Sorry to hear that the bloke got upset and scared-not what you need on holiday. Take it easy and look after yourself.

Well I think what scared him is apparently where we are is equivalent to from Carlisle to dumfries where that french journalist was abducted and beheaded yesterday, I didn't realise we were that close to it. That's why we can't go and see where star wars was filmed not allowed to go there.
