    Maybe. They couldn't choose between the cosy and the love?

    Hmm - checking your receipts but also throwing her own ones away before you could possibly look at them...The lady doth protest too much methinks!

    (However I can recommend that you marry her as you will have no complaints in the bedroom department ;) )
    Had an interesting night tonight. OH found the receipt from the hotel I stayed in two weeks ago whilst on a stag do. I paid for the stag's room as well, so it had two rooms on it. She accused me of having an affair!

    Then I found out that she had thrown the receipt for the kindle I bought yesterday in the bin!

    I enjoyed it all anyway.
    I think....

    16 for me



    Errr... because if you were having an affair and snuck off to a hotel with your other woman, you'd obviously need two separate rooms????

    [X-posted with lir]

    Perhaps I am sneaky so I book two rooms to make it look like a platonic friendship.

    In any case, I should also point out that it was an Ibis hotel and cost £30 a night. I like to think that if I was having an affair I would at least book a Malmaison or something a bit more upmarket like that.

    An interesting decision methinks - normally they chose to keep whoever makes the best TV but didn't seem to this week. I particularly liked the blond guy chatting up the PM girl who he can't stand just to avoid her calling him in to the boardroom 3 if they lost the task.

    It can be frustrating but it's good for a laugh.

    They actually did reasonably well today for a change. It's the after show with Dara O Briain which is the best part.
    I think....

    He's already answered that:

    With due respect Lydia, he has not answered it. I understood the mechanics of how they make the money, but I think the wording is misleading, as the bonuses come from the retailers. 100% means 100%, including bonuses.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    The sad thing is that, while we all get where you are coming from with that, if you said as much it would suggest that you'd thought it through and had booked the Ibis to throw her off the scent.

    I'd hide your car keys and listen out for the spin cycle if I were you.

    20 but that includes countries I have only visited whilst in transit on long haul flights and have driven though on the way to somewhere else!

    Cool! I though Hamish would have a high score but I bet even he struggles to meet that.

    Don't worry, I bet the Queen did that too.
