C6 -- Wednesday, February 4, 1981 - North Shore News

An old proverb goes
something like this: “When

you're up to your ass in.

alligators it . serves little

purpose ‘to explain that your
original:.intention was to
drain the swamp.”

Most of us have 20-20
hindsight. Our foresight may
be a bit faulty but bigawd we
-can pick out flaws like a cat
picks out fleas. Un-

“fortunately, all land on our

stead we had two sn don
fans..How can they do this to
us?

We got hit with a service
charge on top of our meal

price. Do you think we
should have tipped as well?
My husband did and we've
argued the fact ever since.
Our reservations were

made in October but when
we arrived the hotel had
never heard of us. They
arranged facilities down the
road but it wasn't half as nice
as the hotel we should have
had.

Here are a few solutions.
You probably won't like
them.

If. -you rent through a

in travel agent, you might get
ad lucky and ‘get a few bucks
’ back for “inconvenience”.

Otherwise, you coped with a
cranky stove, a frosty fridge
and a gringy apartment, just
for experience. Bad luck.

Airlines will put you up in
a nice hotel and pay for your
meals if you should be
delayed for an excessive
amount of time. If your flat in
Barbados went unused, they
won't pay anything towards
the rental.
