    Ask the concierge of the really nice hotel.

    He's a grand chap unless he moves your car without the tracker thing and then all hell breaks loose!

    But still, all's well that ends well.

    Just saw this while having a quick search:
    Mattress Sale

    Looks like a bargain to me, very tempted myself!
    Ferret,

    Do you know which hypnos is the current equivalent to your model?

    * And they equate decent with expensive, ho-hum. A blow up mattress is probably just as good. Certainly not £800 / £7.99 = 100 times as bad anyway
