Jon Kingsbury from Southampton, joke books are cheap and found in all good bookstores. Please buy one and attempt to develop a sense of humour...

Herr Flick, Hamburg,

"wiped off the map?" Talk about sensationalism. It's delapidated, they're going to restore it. It's not as if it's going to be bulldozed.

"We Anglo-Saxons migrated from Germany"

Yup, the "Saxon" bit gives it away.

starling, Lancaster,

Still haven’t got over having digs at the Germans, have you England?
Entire areas of Spain are being taken over by the English, and this story is still interesting?
Stop inciting prejudice!
Grow up!

Presumambly the TUI company that is buying it is the same company that owns Thompson Holidays. So, MB, it's going to be full of Brits - more like '44.

SL, London,

well one things for sure it will be kept a thousand times cleaner
than most other grotty smelly Italian hovels.

Just what do the lazy Italian men do all day?

AB, London,

that 's life :-)

MB from Edinburgh, We Anglo-Saxons migrated from Germany (have you never heard of the Germanic migrations?!?), indeed there are more German descendents in the US than either Irish or British. Therefore should you not re-evaluate your understanding of Germany, without referring to 1939 in a juvenille, infantile and quite frankly pathetic fashion. History books are cheap and found in all good bookstores.

obviously the italians didn't have their towels ready...

Lindsay, Bristol,

It's 1939 all over again! They're just expanding south instead of east...
