We has the car for the whole 2 weeks and the experience was absolutely the same. I think it is an Italian Boy thing", from what I could tell. There were some very nice, quick cars, but they, almost all, seemed to know what they were doing and made their intentions pretty clear, but not the scooter riders, they were everywhere. Travelling the narrow coastal roads round the South and round to the east coast, seemed to calm most drivers, for good reason, but again, it didn't stop the scooters. 😵💫 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The firm are victims of the way our school terms are arranged just as much as parents are - six weeks of demand they don't have the capacity to meet and gross under-usage most of the rest of the year, except half-term holidays, which at least are not the same week everywhere, giving maybe two week blocks of higher demand. So they've capital lying idle and a high proportion of casual staff. 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Dunsignalling Posted July 26 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 26 Basically, tourism is a bad industry to make a living from in a country with, about three months of unpredictably distributed decent weather a year. Most involved would be better off doing something else. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
