    Sod My Lunch, how about Afternoon Delight?

    The rise of the 'afternoon delight' hotel booking - BBC News

    "We are offering hotels the chance to boost income by 10%," says Lorenzo Sciotti, Dayuse's business development manager in London.

    "And for customers - they get a hotel room for a few hours at a fraction of the price they would pay for a full day."

    Interestingly, Dayuse makes it very clear that no credit cards are needed in order to book. Is this a hint of the target clientele? After all, as everyone knows, rogue receipts are the worst enemy of the undercover Lothario.
    Might see if any of the desperate looking ones in accounts fancy an extended lunch break....

    Interesting - I was recently booking accommodation for my son (honest guv) to attend an interview near Heathrow, all seemed to offer a day room deal where you didn't actually get to sleep in it but just use it

    Horizontal meeting activity did spring to mind
    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think
