i love it when families have specific little oddities. like you can’t even mention malta to my mother without her threatening to kneecap you. because we had a bad holiday experience there. once. 19 year ago. and she has refused to ever set foot in the country or hear its name ever again

#i had a friend whose father pretty much moved out there and she says it’s great #and I was like yeah I’m sure but we’ve been forbidden from ever going there ever again #the bad experience was. 1) the hotel we were supposed to stay at hadn’t been built yet but nobody told us #so we got off the bus and it was literally a building site #so they put us in a different hotel which was super dirty #and it was like a massive party area so the whole town were up until like 5am blasting music and throwing things across balconies #but we were supposed to be on a family holiday #like it was my parents and their 2 kids who were under 16 #and she cried for like a week #personally I don’t recall any of it #i do remember a cockroach and toilet paper being thrown from the balcony #but aside from that I literally have no memory of this holiday at all #i was like 8 years old. I’m 27 next week. I’ve never been to malta before or since #i do kinda wanna go though because there’s no way it’s bad #but instead of my mum being normal and saying it was a bad experience #we’re banned from the whole country now
