Apparently, suggesting that I book (and pay for) Premier Inn for the family party of seven that we wanted to take away, as part of a visit to Longleat. It would have cost £89 in total for three rooms for us all for the night. I was roundly berated, because I caviled at spending around £500 for the same party of seven to stay at an upmarket pub for one night, because my mum was going to be included, and, even though I know she likes Premier Inns, my brother told me off for being 'cheap'.Reason for edit? Can spell, can't type!0
