During our recent stay in Scotland just last weekend we stayed in what seemed a lovely Victorian house owned and run by an elderly lady..
Now as soon as we entered the door into the house there was a very strong smell of dogs everywhere.
As we walked through the entrance 2 terriers and another pooch type thing mingled round our legs as we went up to our rooms for the night.
To cut a long story short we got up on Saturday morning, went down to the dining area and had our cereals and waited for our English breakfast to come.
Quite a posh room with a thick carpet laid the landlady brought our breakfast in one in each hand, The last to be served was Carl (a Stainburn member)....... when she approached Carl with his plate a sausage fell off the plate on to the stinking carpet.
She then picked up the sausage, wiped it on her apron and put it back on Carl's plate in front of all of us without so much of a hint of embarrassment with the words "its ok I vacuumed yesterday".
Not a hint of "I'm sorry" or "I'll replace that".. just back on the plate and eat it... Jeebus I thought I had seen everything..
The moral of this story is....... Never complain about Travel Lodge's again.
PS: The sausage didn't get eaten..
