Sunbed Rage

On holiday went down feeling cool
with my towel then felt such a fool
as the sun was breaking
every sun bed was taken 
angrily threw all towels in pool.

No, no, no - you can't reserve sunbeds for heaven's sake, not at a resort vacation spot. I would change my name to Ms. Reserved and lay right down, lounge chairs are first come, first serve, cabanas - rent and reserve away. You did the right thing (I assume this happened and as such is a rule to be broken!!!) What a world! All the best (I'm mad enough to pee in the pool!) ... CayCay

Thanks CayCay, I totally agree with all the sentiments in your comment, this has been a problem for many years but for these big corporations trying to cash in will no doubt make the situation worse, thanks again for your support much appreciated. :))

Thanks Jan, I would have thought these holiday hotels could supply adequate sun beds for their guests, certainly looks a rip off to me. :))

Thanks Silent One, pool. Full of towels lol, what inspired this is that holiday companies are offering customers reservations of sun beds for about £22 per person, how this works not sure but sounds like a rip off to me, thanks again for your support much appreciated. :))
