    Hubby has the knife roll packed with the knives and tools he thinks he will need, plus two cutting boards that we plan to abandon there. It weighs 5 lbs and takes up the space of about a pair of shoes. How hard was that?
    After last (very nice) cottage holiday myself, my GF and some of her family went on I'm definitely taking the knife roll. The kitchen was fully equipped, I managed to cook a roast dinner (with two different meats) for eight, the knives were atrociously blunt.

      People like that don't deserve vacations.
      Maybe not...


      ...but the people that have to deal daily with people like that deserve to have them go away for a couple of weeks.

        Some people seem to do their best to ruin their own vacation.

        How sad.

          That is a very good point.

            This reminds me my boss told me yesterday that since I have so much vacation time built up I can have 3 weeks off in April!

              Dave, out of morbid curiosity (and a masochistic desire to *headdesk*), how far in advance of the actual vacation was this guy calling? Are we talking "we're leaving tomorrow and gotta know NOW because we're too stupid to plan ahead" or "I'm a compulsively obsessed* douche who can't wait a day to get an answer on a banal facet of my trip 3 months from now"?


              *Not to be confused with obsessive-compulsive (I really don't like to make light of psychiatric diseases).

                Oh but they do. That's why VRS has the cottage next to the alligators.

                  I think I'd have told him off the second the B word was dropped. But than my boss would back me up. =/

                    But I thought all vacationers had breakdowns because they can't find the veggie peeler...or is that just me that goes into mental anxiety mode. Meh.

                      Knowing VRS' customers, that guy was probably needed to know whether ther was a truffle slicer or oyster knives.
