Am also amazed that this has been done by a Danish family. Usually the Scandinavians are very correct; at least my expereince in both renting out to them, visiting Denmark and having various Scandinavian friends. Couldn't be more correct..

I used to think that, then some years ago on holiday at a beautiful estalagem near Cascais there was a large Swedish group staying and the disgusting mess (and noise) these people created, particularly around their al-fresco breakfast table was indescribable. If they had been English I would have died from shame. As it was, I just amended my national stereotypes quite dramatically.
(NB, to redress the balance, we had a Swedish family staying chez nous, who were no trouble and in fact great fun and quite delightful).
