Given the stereotypical view of the German holiday, the decision by British tourists Bild Berlin newspaper to describe drunk, fat and sunburn this week may not have been altogether wise.
Some of the statements that we are prone to amnesia underwear, vodka and Welsh wandering hands cough may be accurate, especially if you head to Malia, Magaluf, or one of the other resorts in the Mediterranean as Britons drink alcohol have done their best to ruin in recent years.
But we're not all like that, and we certainly can not let this hatchet job slide without some kind of response.
So the German tourist Ask most people to describe a typical specimen, and references to towels and chairs immediately come to mind.
A TV commercial currently making the rounds has a German couple on holiday that, but too much sleep still manage to make their favorite place by pulling a towel from their bedroom, with a rocket launcher.
Ad men used the stereotype as far as 1993 when Carling issued a slightly controversial trade saw a Briton Bond as tanned fighting a horde of portly Germans a lounger of choice, with the theme music Dambusters providing soundtrack rolled towel even bouncing off the surface of the pool, as one of the famous bomb Barnes Wallis I bet he drinks Carling Black label.
It is also accurate enough, and something that even the Germans themselves recognize in 2005, Ralf Höcker, a German lawyer, admitted that the stereotype is true - the Germans reserve all chairs.
There is a certain type of German tourist who does, he said the same type when they are on the beach built a small wall to protect them.
He also confirmed the deployment of cunning towels is not backed by law British tourists would be well within their legal rights to ignore the reservation implied by the towels if there is nobody, it is said he.
However, the Germans seem to try to reign in their instincts seat hogging Peter Hughes, who recently boarded a cruise on the MS Deutschland, found warning instructions customer in major German party he n ' there is no sun should be reserved in this way.
Aggressive nudism is another charge that could reasonably be leveled at German holiday A poll last month suggested that it is more likely to go naked on the beach, with 28 percent of them admitting stripping their birthday suit , against only 12 percent of Britons came down from Japan, so to speak, with only two percent.
Its cruise ships offer spaces for bathing naked sun, it has several nudist hotels and a German company even offered naturist flights.
As emphasized Adrian Bridge Telegraph Travel for a nation that is sometimes hard to bare his soul, the German people is surprisingly relaxed for baring their bodies.
When they are not naked, they are incredibly well dressed, according to Peter Hughes They were all wearing clothes suitable for a lot smarter than that in which activity they were engaged men wore ties on the bridge of the walk.
This button attitude was a common theme among the other contributers Telegraph travel I canvassed, who felt that the Germans find it difficult to let their hair down, even on vacation this apparent lack of humor is also came.
They take their holidays seriously In fact, they take so seriously, it is difficult to say whether they are entertained, said Andrew Eames, the man behind the site and they like the details If a route said transfer airport includes cold towels, soft drinks and snacks, they will insist on cold towels, soft drinks and snacks, even if it means not to notice what is outside the window.
I would say that many Germans s drunk, fat and sunburned, too, he added.
Gill Charlton, our correspondent consumer, who ran a BB in Cornwall, said they may lack a certain lightness and a sense of humor, unless they have spent time working in Britain they speak English well, never complain about the weather, take off their shoes to go upstairs, and a holiday action plan that usually involves a lot of walking, drink British beer in moderation and always seeking places of Cornwall of Rosamund Pilcher deeply sentimental romantic antics that have made a huge success on television Sunday night in Germany.
All the guests makes model, she said the only complaint I have ever heard is if it is no ham and cheese on the buffet, I served with Parmesan Germans desperate for a hit breakfast cheese.
Bee Rowlatt, one of the stars of the documentary last year BBC Make Me A German, had his own humorous vision of the Bild portrait British tourists Drunk, fat and sunburn Yes please thank Germany for us remember what the holidays are for I'll be at the buffet all day, with a glass of something I can not say - at least we Brits win something.
For the French, a bit stuffy attitude displayed by some Germans visit can be interpreted as arrogance, said Anthony Peregrine, ex pat living in Nimes and the author of our regular column The Roast Writes.
There is a time, I did a very informal survey among tourism professionals in South France, ask who their favorite aliens were, he explained the Brits came out polite way forward, impressed by everything, not complain ever willing to listen to Spanish and Italians were mainly seen as continuations of the french South by other means, but louder while the Dutch were colonizing hated campsites and have their own supplies shipped down from Holland even lettuce.
But it was the Germans who arrive last Obviously, there were persistent resentment about what happened during the Second World War, but also what was perceived as a kind of arrogance More than once, people told things as they come here and treat us as if we were the third World or they behave as if they are still running the country of a restaurant in Sète If we do not want to not need their money, we would not not let in.
Anthony added that despite John Cleese style warnings to not mention the war, the Germans religiously visit sites related to it.
I saw them being terribly friendly in Oradour-sur-Glane, resistance to various museums, and also a tour of a fortress Maginot line I, in fact, the only non-German on the visit, he said the guide emphasized the quality of defensive arrangements So how is it proved useless I asked, he took me aside, said the Germans and said we had great guns, but they had heard a German Stuka he lit immediately Ja, ja Stukas he cried, making a nice mime of a dive bomber, including the machine-a-tat rat firearm attack that clearly made him happy that I was not sure how take this.
Nigel Richardson, another of our regular collaborators, described the German tourist annoyingly well traveled and adventurous Every time you think you have reached somewhere few people were, and feel smug about it, a campervan appear and eight Germans spread, looking as if they are friends who've been to a million of these places.
So there you have it, Mr. Vacations You are not perfect and if you if you got a problem with what you BEGINNINGS.
