Brits abroad out for booze, sex and a good punch-up
And the world thinks Americans are uncivilized.
Brits abroad out for booze, sex and a good punch-up: "Young Britons on holiday shun local culture for booze, casual sex and fist-fighting, said an official British report revealed.
The Foreign Office report, 'Project Holiday', surveyed 1,000 tourists aged between 16 and 30 and laid bare the startling details of young Brits travelling abroad to 'party hard and do things to excess'.
Gone are the days of sun, sea and sangria: bonking, brawls and booze are the new watchwords for young British visitors to foreign shores.
Over one third of Britons surveyed reckoned holidays are all about hedonistic behaviour.
Of those, 75 percent were looking forward to excessive drinking, 28 percent craved a quick one-night-stand, eight percent were drug-crazed and five percent were on the look-out for a good fight.
Holdaymakers from the west Midlands led the way, craving significantly more club action, drugs and sexual intercourse than tourists from any other part of Britain.
The Welsh were the least interested in sex with just five percent rating it their top reason for heading overseas, while voyagers from southwest England were the most likely culture-vultures.
Sunseekers from northwest England reckoned over-the-top boozing was the most important part of a holiday, while 20 percent of holidaymakers from eastern England were looking forward to swinging the fists.
Those from Scotland and northeast England were the most likely to have their collar felt by the local constabulary.
'You don't have to travel to Faliraki to have spotted this,' summarised the Sunday Telegraph which carried the report: 'any British town will do.'"
