there are also cases where members of the public waste time and scarce resources with ludicrous requests it is not our job for example to book new restaurants while you are on holiday this is obvious you may think but nonetheless it came as a surprise to the caller in Spain who was having difficulty finding somewhere to have Christmas lunch if like a man in Florida last year you find ants in your holiday rental we are not the people to ask for pest control advice if you are having difficulty erecting a new chicken coop in your garden in Greece as someone else was I'm afraid we cannot help you equally I have to say that we are not the people to turn to and we've had to explain all of this if you can't find your false teeth if your sat-nav is broken and you need directions if you are unhappy with your plastic surgery if your Jam won't set if you are looking for a dog minder while you are on holiday if your livestock need checking on if you'd like advice about the weather or if you want someone to throw a coin into the Trevi Fountain for you because you forgot while you're on holiday and you want your marriage to succeed and our commitment to good relations with our neighbours does not am afraid extend to translating I love you into Hungarian as we were asked to do by one lovestruck British tourist there are easy ways to find the translation
