This really happened. We arrived on Friday and around 11 pm I became really ill and had stomach cramps that got worse until 4 am I exploded and was violently sick five times. In morning mum called reception and a man brought sheets seeing we could not cope he arranged for housekeeping to come . Two girls turned up in plastic aprons and gloves but would not enter our villa, and went away.

The following day I went to reception and told the manager what had happened and he really did say I think we did all we could of done. I replied really and walked out. This was following a bad experience there in march when the manager offered me another holiday in so called very upgraded accommodation at well under half price. So I thought ok give them another chance more fool me

Help needed? Go fry none available here. Even if you are very ill and disabled we do not care. Look all we care about is your money!! Loot to the bank for us, always another sucker down the road. Help? What is that? We do not know what you are on about. Of course we can send people to your villa to sort things out. Let us take care of it they are on their way right now. I and mum speak to two housekeepers dressed in aprons Dear me they say we can not come in we can not deal with body fluids. And off they go leaving a 87 year old lady to turn mattress and re-make bed. Yes really. My cousin and his wife arrived and sorted things out. All come here to stay we really do care This is just a blip, oh you are upset? I do not understand why! (manager) Please I think we did all we could. Really? how come you did sweet FA!!! Everybody here is always happy. Few ever complain. Really, only four separate people complained because you did not remove bags!! Requested us to leave on porch for collection that was over 24 hours coming. And this after I gave you a second chance after our disaster holiday in March. Never again will I cross your threshold I have had it with you. Such clavier treatment can not be ignored All be warned by our experience and avoid Perran Sands in Cornwall Next time I will go to Rivera Sands at Hayle they were wonderful to us. Dear people in reception there bought me a bottle of wine for my birthday So heed my warning and stay well clear or else you will regret your stay.

So sorry you had this experience. It sounds like you had a miserable time. Wonderful poem though, I enjoyed reading it this morning! You still have that special knack! I've been busy this past year! I graduated with my poetry degree and am going for my masters in the same. It's very hard too, the masters program is much more difficult than the undergraduate program! But I am enjoying it all the same! I'll stop by every once in a while! See you!
