German Tourists To Book Sunloungers
What is it with sun loungers and Germans? They really get wound up by the fact that they have to send their wives out early whilst on holiday to secure their loungers for the day. But good news has arrived from Thomas Cook – who say that our Teutonic cousins can now pay to keep hold of their lounger.
No longer will they have to drape their garish towels over the plastic lean-backs at the break of dawn.
But what does that mean for us?
Bleary eyed Brits have no chance against this kind of lounger enthusiasm. We still have our head firmly wedged down the toilet while they sprint out to grab their spots. And then we have to scour whatever pretty Spanish town we’re in for a Full English Breakfast. Choc full of bacon and eggs we head back to the resort to have a read of the Sun – where lo and behold, every single sun lounger has been taken by robust Germans. And now we can’t try and nick one, because those Germans have hired all of them. With real money.
Resorts in Turkey, Egypt and the Canary Islands will offer the hiring service, which will set our lounger-hogging Euro pals back £2.60 a day. A family of Germans can hire a lounger each for 49 Euros. They must really love them eh?
