    1. This is incredibly sad for him and his family, a tragedy no matter the circumstances.

    2. Any time I have been on a vacation in a warm-weather Anglophone location, the people who are beet-red sunburned and still outside drinking all day are almost invariably English.

    I’m sure it’s a tiny, tiny percentage, but the people who combine a Little Britain mentality with a determination to get value for money and a bit of functional alcoholism certainly make themselves known. Terrible American tourists are often much worse to be around, but the specific “wobbly lobster” variety seems to skew English.
