Oh poor Archie, he's shut in the wardrobe :-D

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 23 Jan 2015 23:15

Am I invited? :-)

I'm quite well behaved if I have to be :-D

I think his name is Archie :-D

I will be well and truly organized for the birthday party, Linda. Oooh - how exciting :-D

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 23 Jan 2015 23:11

The layout of the house doesn't afford the space for en-suite Linda, and more often than not just a couple in at any one time.

Who's this birthday boy? do we know him?

LindainHerriotCountry

LindainHerriotCountry Report 23 Jan 2015 23:06

For the party Sue :-D :-D

We will have a birthday boy amongst us, so we need to organise the cake and jelly

LindainHerriotCountry Report 23 Jan 2015 23:05

I don't think I would want to stay anywhere which is not ensuite these days

Tomorrow Linda??

Sue has got quite a high rating overall.

She doesn't have en-suite facilities, but has a large beautifully appointed bathroom, that works out very well.

She did have a single lady staying, and a single gentleman.
The lady put her review that everything was fine etc, but that she had to share the bathroom with a man :-D
It read like they were in there together :-D

Sue, are you all organised for tomorrow ;-)

A shame there is review page for guests as there are for accommodation but I guess that would cause all sorts of issues.

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 23 Jan 2015 22:44

No they didn't - but you wouldn't expect a reply from those sort of people :-|

LindainHerriotCountry

LindainHerriotCountry Report 23 Jan 2015 22:42

Did they reply?

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 23 Jan 2015 22:41

Sue did e-mail them to say how "disappointed" she was, and that in effect they had stayed at the B&B for nothing, as it had cost her to accommodate them.

LindainHerriotCountry

LindainHerriotCountry Report 23 Jan 2015 22:37

She should send them a bill just to shame them

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 23 Jan 2015 22:33

I can understand your OH being worried Sue. Now you've obviously got the selling bug, who knows where it will end?
Try not to sell the shirt off his back though :-D

Stealing all that stuff from the B&B was mean. Sue is reasonable with her charges, and goes to a lot of trouble making her guests comfortable - nothing is too much trouble. Takes all sorts I suppose.

SueMaid

SueMaid Report 23 Jan 2015 22:26

Red shoes and matching handbags Linda :-D I just had a pang of regret that we can't have a shopping trip :-(

Thankfully Tec if all goes to plan it will fix the problem. It doesn't really hold him back but we can see it getting worse as he gets older.

I went into town yesterday and it was very hot and crowded. I bought a pair of lovely summer house shoes from a Chinese lady. They are very comfortable. A bit of an indulgence really as I generally wear flip flops around the house.

I have a young woman coming to pick up some bits and pieces I put up for sale. That means I will have made $100 in a week. OH is worried I'll sell the car and house :-D

What a rotten thing to do in a B&B - especially one run by a lovely generous person like Sue. We were staying in a nice hotel in Glasgow and saw a young woman help herself to a load of bathroom toiletries from the housekeeping trolley. She even took a couple of toilet rolls. When she saw us she shrugged and said "with the cost of the hotel room I have paid for these". I don't think so :-0

Should I advise Gucci in Harrogate to stock up with red shoes? :-D

Oh dear, poor Aiden. I am sure he will be fine, but it is not nice to think he has to go through it

I don't put the pans in the dishwasher, so I did wash them :-|

I think we should have a shopping trip together sue
