Brits Behaving Badly...

I wish I had thought up this headline.

However the normally sedate (and Greece based) Travel Daily News have today's best headline:

I do not edit or make this stuff up....

Brits Do Give a Flying F***

So apparently a significant number of Brits engage in various forms of "bad" behaviour when they travel. According to a survey from Essential Travel, who is an insurance provider, this includes the following revealing statistics:

15 per cent who admit to a sexual encounter at the airport or on the plane,
20 per cent who also admit to a short-lived holiday romance.
56 per cent who head for the bar after clearing airport security

OK so I am not sure about the efficacy of the study - so take this as presented. Still - it makes you wonder how the Brits compare to other nationalities - er such Americans or even Germans? Carling Black Label anyone....

Generalizing can be very bad!

Cheers
