      They did that regular. Many times put someone up for the night at my gaff up the hill.

      Oh, and that reminds me where that lovely fold up bed is.

        No, but they did once send me to a room that was already occupied by somebody else, and another time they lost my booking and had to put me in a room adapted for disabled people... which was on the first floor

          I went to a wedding in Swindon where I stayed in a room normally let to the disabled, I got absolutely boloxed so the guide rails and spacious bathroom floor came in handy.
          Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                  Someone here has produced two different routes to an exit. A "tourist" path and a "pro driver" path. I imagine there are some interesting things one could do with graph theory here, such as find the longest paths that don't cross, etc, but can't be arsed to think about it.

                    I was working for Travel Inn years ago when they migrated to a new reservation system, which I think must win the award for worst named software ever. It was called BART - Big Awesome Reservation Thingy
