One made me cringe and laugh a couple of years back,
I overheard 2 crabby ladies moaning about the Roast Beef they had chosen was not - quote, -
"Real Roast Beef with proper yorkshire pud", and how they can't eat foreign muck - so why leave England then???

I love a cup of tea still, (but could live without it), part of our holiday is the different style of food & culture.
Having something different makes the holiday!! Hard to believe some people will never try anything new!!

And thanks to Gordon - a lot will have no choice now!!
But - know what you mean - I love the relaxed Greek way on Holiday!!

Patandgra:
Retsina, the greek Marmite i suppose in that you either love or loath it, personally i love it especialy Malamatina which does not have an overpowering taste of resin like Kourtaki, and is the perfect drink to have with local food like the small black olives that you only find on Corfu.

stressed0506:
the flower ladies and the guys who sell lighters, torches etc....even though there is no pressure to buy and they always move on politely if you don't, i just feel so bad about not buying and always come home with half a suitcase full of the things and the apartment has a selection of roses in various stages of decay !!!! also agree with those who have mentioned the fortune telling thingy...
