So where are the reports of them being stolen?? From this year please. Considering millions of trips are made every year, you must be able to link to at least ten.0 -
Where is it he's going on holiday?
Few years ago we got robbed, worst of it is, there was about 8 of us in the room all passed out about 8 in the morning, someone who clearly had a key for the room, got in, went into my bag, got the safe key out and was rummaging through the safe before one of us woke up and saw them, luckily being young all our parents made us get travellers cheques, so the only money stolen was from handbags/mens jeans and it was just personal spends for that night. Brand new cameras etc got left so that was a consolation. Reported it to the hotel who just weren't interested, got our locks changed and that was about it, something fishy there.
That's the first thing I wondered. It makes a difference whether he's in a B&B in Scarborough or a Kibbutz in deepest Outer Mongolia.
I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe

Adults can debate a point with resorting to abuse.

The fact is, you don't have any evidence to back up your claims that suitcases are being stolen from rooms. The fact that there is so little evidence bolsters my claim that it is highly unlikely to happen.
So if you have reached the limit of your intelligence, perhaps you should bow out, instead of resorting to crass abuse.
Read back, you've been throwing insults all the way through. So trying to twist it round just makes you look like an even bigger clown than before.
You're wrong, you know you're wrong but instead of stepping away you're calling people girls, children etc etc. I haven't even started with any abuse never mind 'crass'.
So please.... continue entertaining me for the last twenty minutes of my working day. and by entertaining i mean humiliating yourself and me laughing at you.0 -
Going to play Jiu Jitsu now. Hopefully you will have thought about your argument a little.
I post from experience of hundreds of trips and the corresponding lack of evidence that securely locked suitcases are less secure than any other method.
I'm happy to read of other's experiences and would hope to learn for them. But you are just posting rubbish and hope to win an argument by shouting the loudest.
No, just post the evidence that shows that suitcases are being stolen on a regular basis. Otherwise, why are you posting about it at all? Argument on a subject about which you know nothing?? How strange..
See you later.

you do realise that Jiu Jitsu isn't a board game and you don't play it?
it's ok, go and 'play' and then come back and demand official stats that you don't 'play' it.0 -

Really? How would you know? Tell me, if you know better. What do we do? Arguing on yet another subject about which you know nothing?0
