The washbasin in Darrell and Nigel’s hotel bathroom very much impressed Nigel as he said it was like having his very own, bijoux, indoor type swimming pool ….
…… with a Nigel sized diving platform …..
…. and an oblong shape conducive to the swimming off serious laps! In fact Nigel completed 66 lengths before breakfast on Sunday morning, in his high viz vest and bubbles …. care of the complimentary peripherals basket …. and NOT from Nigel himself!!!
The view from Room 400 was not quite so impressive or beautiful ….. but it did make them wonder about all the people who lived in the flats around them …. and marvel at all the hustle and bustle and noise from the street below ….. which never seemed to stop.
However, when Darrell investigated the fire escape, following the fire drill instructions as per on the back of the room door, he was greeted by a very different sort of view ….. that of a a real live London mews …..
“If ever I move to London to London Lounge on a permanent basis I am going to live in a mews …. in the centre of London, near Hyde Park, so if I left my windows open at night I can hear all the concerts for free” he mused …..“It would be soooooooooooo romantic”
What is he like? I hate to burst his bubble …. for although it might look like a posh Coronation Street, the prices will certainly not be a la Coronation Street !!!!
