Hotel Splendido
Enzyme writes, "what about awful hotels, B&Bs, or friends' houses where you've had no choice but to stay the night?"
What, the place in Oxford that had the mattresses encased in plastic (crinkly noises all night), the place in Blackpool where the night manager would drum to the music on his ipod on the corridor walls as he did his rounds, or the place in Lancaster where the two single beds(!) collapsed through metal fatigue?
Add your crappy hotel experiences to our list.

Oh, OK then...
After the crash, Diana is floating around in heaven, waving at the proles and continuing her campaigning against landmines, in an attempt to make the kingdom sit up and do something about all the one-winged angels floating about (somewhat lopsidedly).
Some years pass, and she sees a familiar figure wandering around. ‘Blimey’, says HRH, ‘if it isn’t the Queen Mum’. And off she floats across the cloud to talk to her.
‘So they finally got round to you then’? Diana asks, smiling coyly through her voluminous fringe.
The Queen Mum gives Diana a somewhat withering look. ‘Comes to us all, you know. Some sooner than others. By the way, I see that the saintly image you projected on earth hasn’t followed you here’.
Diana, a bit bemused by this remark, replies ‘I’m not sure I follow you’.
‘Your halo’, says the fishbone-swallowing old dear, ‘it seems to have slipped’.
Diana’s eyes narrowed at this. Her brow visibly furrowed, and her wings ruffled in annoyance.
‘That isn’t a halo’ she retorted, ‘it’s a fucking steering wheel’!
