    Anyway, think I got this Social Rewards sorted. Sat here with 3 open browsers, reading forums on IE and playing all the videos for Tracy's account on Chrome, and for my account on Firefox, both minimised and sound turn off.
    Just wish you could find out how long the videos are before starting to play them lol
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    my brother-in-law follows an order for bacon with 'burn it'. :)

    I appreciate the variety of bacon options I now know are available, but my heart will always be with streaky.

    'Canadian bacon' might be an option for those who cannot cope with the streaky thing...but that term seems to be used to cover a variety of things from back bacon to gammon to other pork products.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    I was struggling to find my bookmark for the site I used to love with loads of hotel property maps and found this one which may have been posted before but just in case.

    http://www.vegasunzipped.com/las-vegas-hotel-and-casino-property-maps-list/

    Several times we have found it really handy having the property map available when making a quick stop to pick up tickets or something or planning a meeting place in a property we're not that familiar with.

    He doesn't mind torched bacon, it was the maple infusion they ruined it with that he hated so much. He still can't do sweet and savoury on one plate, mainly because it's just wrong, but doing that to bacon was unforgivable.

    Went to SLS yesterday. It seems to have a much smaller casino than Sahara had. They have a ton of different restaurants though.

    We got the $5 free play from our monorail tickets plus the usual free play. Thanks for the tip, photome.

    my hubby had a similar situation with a McDonald's McGriddle...he did not realise that the muffin would have maple bits in it. I think we had to swap as he could not cope. Personally, I think bacon + maple is a match made in heaven. :)

    Crap. It was full of SoCal weekenders and the cocktail waitresses were rushed off their feet. Probably shouldn't have visited on a Friday afternoon/evening.

    That's why we always go out to M Resort on Saturday night. I must be getting old, and Tracy calls it her dress down night, she gets to wear a maxi and wait for it.....................................
