Title: HOW MUCH? Post by: tikay on December 14, 2006, 05:04:18 PM As you may have noted, Red & I had a meet in Stoke last night. We chose a Holiday Inn Express, as they have Wi-Fi, & I wanted to set up my Lappie for referencing stuff.
I paid £9.99 for x hours coverage, & it fell over after 4 minutes, jeez..... Anyway, we had a long night ahead & we fancied a cuppa. We went to the bar, as the little machine which dispenses hot water & has a stack of tea bags next to it had no mugs or cups. "Can we have a mug so we can make a cup of tea please?" "Yes Sir, that will be £3." "Sorry?" "£3" "For ONE MUG of tea, which we have to make ourself?" "Yes Sir". Title: Re: HOW MUCH?

Title: Re: HOW MUCH? Post by: Indestructable on December 14, 2006, 05:40:14 PM That is outrageous. Trouble is that enough mugs pay the price for them to get away with it. (hope you didn't pay, if you did I take the mug comment back ;whistle; )

(hope you didn't pay, if you did I take the mug comment back ;whistle; ) Red REFUSED to pay, he was STEAMING! Seriously, he went loopy. Title: Re: HOW MUCH? Post by: Indestructable on December 14, 2006, 06:03:29 PM Hope you didn't get charged to go the loo. I was recently asked for 50p to go the loo in London. My reply wasn't polite.

Could you reuse the mug? £3 for as much tea as you want seems ok. Title: Re: HOW MUCH? Post by: I, Zimbra on December 14, 2006, 07:23:45 PM Was it a mug filled with gold dubloons?

Post by: tikay on December 14, 2006, 07:30:52 PM "Piss off"? Could you reuse the mug? £3 for as much tea as you want seems ok. To be fair, yes, we could have had as many refills as we wanted for £3. But once Tony & Andy arrived on the scene, it was gonna cost £12 to buy 4 teas! Title: Re: HOW MUCH?
