Tonyco1, you don't know me.  FYI, I live and work here and English is my 1st language.  I work in a hotel and depsite having notices up asking guests politely not to put anything down the toilet, it still happens.  Yes, I know it is easy to forget sometimes, all i'm asking, is please spare a thought for those that have to unblock the pipes.  It has already happened twice this season, and it leaves an unpleasant smell in the guests room for a couple of days.

I know many of you have been coming to San Stef for many years, and I don't think I come across as authorative and stong.  I am just straight to the point.  I am a chilled out person and have a sense of humor.  I am also friendly as well.  I am only trying to put across the views of those that live and work here.  Try to see things from our side.  

I know you all have banter on here and things are done tongue in cheek, which is great.  It's a great forum.  Long may it continue.

StockJockey - good comments - and ones we def take on board - at end of the day when we go abroad we do "as the romans do" - and it is quite an easy habit to get into - even with 2 kids in tow. We eat as the Greeks do and therefore the rest we should do the same . And take yr point as it is not us holidaymakers that need to clean the tanks out. Nappy sacks / wet wipes packed ready for next week  8)

Hi StockJockey
I really do understand where you are coming from.
We genuinely always do as the Greeks do, and have for the last 26 years, regarding toilets.

I put the Toilets post in originally to try to prevent some of the blockages, because people just don't understand that a 4" pipe won't carry the waste if stuffed with paper. Kids especially will chuck it down and flush - some are just too embarrassed - never having done this before.

However - I tried to do the post with some with humour as it works - people that read & laugh are more likely to think about the actual consequences with a humourous picture in their minds.
Lets face it - Notices blunt and to the point just don't work with some of the Public.

I know, because I am a people person & work in a customer service industry, an industry where you can actually acheive great things every day by working through other people to achieve the goals!

The tourist industry is also a people business, in fact one of my colleagues sitting next to me as I write this was a 4* London Hotel Manager, until 3 years ago, and he (like I do), understands the difficulty in balancing customer service with being "direct" to someone.
We all know customers are not always right - fact!

But what I was trying to say was - your posts may be a touch too blunt for home consumption, - (read back through them).
So my hope is that you understand my point as well, and that it's nice to lighten up a touch making the post more friendly.

You are in a unique position being English and working there, you can do so much good and contribute to the Forum greatly,
with up to date information and help for those who ask - - just give it a thought -
also Linda & I would like to say hello when I go there again in Sept, as I am sure you really are the nice guy you say!
I'll even buy you a beer! LOL
