Summer Holidays'We're all going on a summer holiday, and if you want to go yo Sven' rapped hip hop heavyweight MC Miker G - and it's as true today as it was way back in 1986. Holidays are a time for us to relax, unwind...and disgrace ourselves and our nations. Tell us about your best and worst holiday experiences. Again.

I went on holiday with my partner to Paris...in France.We got in late and went to bed, when we woke the whole ground floor had flooded, a burst pipe. It was a basement reception and breakfast room so the whole place was covered with 4" of water, it was like one of those pre-swim foot wash areas...or a really lame kid's pool. We asked the receptionist about breakfast and in a very French way, without saying a single word, he cast his arm about the scene in the room and pulled a face. Seems like a thick question now but at the time we thought back home(UK)they probably would have broken out the bread and jam while the plumber got on with it, no?

I assume that most people don't want breakfast in a flooded dark basement. only Paris, I doubt there were cafés.(
