A new idea here !

Not such a new idea Nem, when we went to buy our place back in August of 1997, we worked in it for 2 weeks before contracts and money changed hands. If it wasen't right for us, we could have pulled out at any time. Carol and Andy Oliver then stayed on for 2 weeks after we boughtthe place to help us through the start-up.

You were lucky there Blongb, due to unfortunate circumstances we were dropped in at the deep end, complete with a booking for a group of German Orchid growers ! :o

I really had to chuckle at an advert. in this week's Pioneer for a Mother's Day Meal.
One of the well known local hotels has " Roast Lion of rare breed Pork" and " Poached Bear" on its menu.

I heard that the owner of The Alex backed out from buying it, for that very reason.

Think that they had a lot of bother with the 'overflow'. Bet that they don't accommodate them again.

Any sign of work taking place on The Somerset Hotel? Think it'll cost a lot to bring this place up to standard.
