Honkeytonk, can they just do that? Can their card not be charged? Some people are dicks.
They booked through LateRooms, so we let the company know- if we get a bad review or whatever, we've got recourse. I believe they'd already paid up for their stay, it's just the bar tab we'll have to chase them for. From what it sounds like, it seems there was an uppity woman who'd never been told no in her life, she got sand in her pants about something, and got the other two to leave. Such is the trade! Can anyone tell me what animal I saw in Big Bend National Park, Texas? I thought it was a pair of stags, but having googled them, they're nowhere near big/tall enough for what we saw. Same antlers and stuff that stags have, but the body was on top of 6-foot muscly legs. These things were massive, and I didn't realise anything like them even existed. It was pitch black, around midnight, and we thought we'd seen some kind of mystical creature.

At Euston Station about to catch train to Glasgow. Haven't bought a copy of When Saturday Comes for a while, but I'll usually get one for a flight or long train journey. Anyway, I find a copy. Pic of Jose on the front. A quick flick through before I go to the till, and it opens on a double page spread titled 'Oxford United and the Story of 1986'. Magazine went back on the shelf. Buggered if I'm paying good money to read all about their finest hour. I bought Private Eye instead.

The same I would a beef joint, in some red wine garlic and some herbs, possibly rosemary. nice and simple. |

I can't link the story as I'm on my phone but look on the adver site and the story about the paramedics. It beggars belief.

My sister is a paramedic and you wouldn't believe some of the shit that she gets. Somebody actually got in the cab of an ambulance one and tried to move it as it was blocking his way. The crew were trying to save a life in the back. |
