Incoming from Lush the Gush. Schwartz is naughty, innit.

internet access at something like £15 per day per room.

Don't get me started on this.

Hotels which charge for wifi which is basically free to provide are just highway robbers.

In my experience it is 4star+ hotels that do this as well, as their clients are more likely to swallow it.

Yes - cheaper hotels are more likely to give cheap/free wifi than expensive ones.

Of course, this revenue stream will die with the rise of dongles.

So why is stealing a sandwich from these robbing bastards such an outrage? Fair play if he did get a whole tray.

That was the defence argument of those guys that did that jewellers in London.

Whatever one thinks about the high prices that the hotel was charging, the abusive and confrontational way that he talked to the catering staff during the incident was not on.

Could you explain why not paying for an over priced  sandwich in a hotel can get you banned from every Casino in the country ?

Luke was barred for the best part of a year, prior to the EPT coming to London (for, you guessed it, being gratuitosly rude and abusive to a member of staff who had asked him to remove his hat while on the gaming floor). He had his bar lifted before the festival so that he could play in the EPT, on the condition that if he misbehaved, his ban would be reinstated permanently and across the Grosvenor estate. He knew the consequences of his actions would result in him being barred again and surprise surprise he broke his promise, caused an incident and got rebarred. Standard.

It was named after John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, an 18th-century English aristocrat, although he was neither the inventor nor sustainer of the food. It is said that he ordered his valet to bring him meat tucked between two pieces of bread, and because Montague also happened to be the Fourth Earl of Sandwich, others began to order "the same as Sandwich!"[3] It is said that Lord Sandwich was fond of this form of food because it allowed him to continue playing cards, particularly cribbage, while eating without getting his cards greasy from eating meat with his bare hands. When asked to pay for the sandwich, the Earl of Sandwich is believed to have replied 'Get thyself the **** out of here, don't thou knowest who I am?'
