‘Is there any chance you might take me away to a place that is warm, dry and sunny? A place where people are on my wavelength and I can escape a system which aims to lie, cheat, manipulate, and even frighten people into spending money they don’t need to spend and can’t afford.’

And she said: ‘There’s a Thomas Cook along the road.’
