Northerners do like a bargain!

Interesting, I will bear that in mind. I do like the Mercure, I was very impressed with the front of house staff.

Have a google.

Are you able to get it started Knobby?

Thanks for the review, great price and location, but not enough to sway me from Citrus Suites or Dawin as nearby comparisons.

Take it on the flight, it will be better than the food been served.

The Adelphi Suites would be my choice as I prefer the relative calm and discretion of the Soi. That said, I stayed in The Mercure on Soi 11 which is neither calm or discrete and loved it.

What job was he doing?

Just got back from flying London to Chicago with United, I have to say it wasn't great. The food was truly awful and I am by no means fussy. My son's screen wouldn't work which on a nearly 8 hour flight is a real downer, they did however offer him a voucher for use on booking his next flight with them! The Stewardesses are older regular Mumsy types which is fine, but listening to them talking shop across the aisles seemed a bit unprofessional. We also had two further internal flights with United, both ends were delayed for nearly an hour. Maybe it was just my rotten luck, but I would think twice before using them again.

I'm not so sure that is so much the case these days, maybe still with the older generation but from Millennials down I don't think they give two hoots. Everyone in that generation is now very familiar with Ladyboys, all the Social Media platforms have enabled that. My kids are in their early twenties and Ladyboys to them are as familiar and normal as Chicken Green curry with rice.

Good to see the Patts board is back up and running again.

Yeah, clearly an issue their end Jim, hopefully it will be resolved asap.

I remember eating them 30 odd years ago at the MCG.

I can see why this place is a favourite for BM's, it is £100 a night which is good value although there are others priced less that are still excellent. I was given a room on the 12th floor at the front, it was a lovely view across the City. The staff were tremendous, on checking out the girl came out to the front and waited with me until the taxi arrived, she didn't need to but it was noted by me and appreciated. The room itself was a good size with a nice armchair and foot stool and a desk and counter area. The bed was very comfy and I heard zero noise from outside.The bathroom was adequate, a simple shower hose attachment that in the holder gives a difficult angle but a bit of fiddling makes it manageable, no bath tub but for me I probably wouldn't use one anyway My one gripe is that the lighting is not great and that hunting all the switches can be a faff. I will definitely return and I reccommend booking through Agoda.
