Judging by their episode, I doubt they'll be receiving full payment either. |

It's pure jealousy. I knew there would be.

Otherwise was the breakfast that bad? OK the fruit did not look the best but Billy provided some nice looking fruit salads upon hearing the moaning and the cooked breakfast looked delicious.

I like Bill, Billy and Marie. The Blackpool women and Michael aren't so nice though. Not sure about Michael's wife.
Anyway, we'll see what's what tomorrow.

God. The jealousy waa oozing from some of that lot today.
The breakfast, I thought, looked good. Sparse? How much do they expect. Moaning about no fruit when they were shown eating fruit. Whining about platesmwhen they could have asked. Stupid moans about no ketchup or brown sauce just showed their lack of class. The nillys breakfast was the best of the week. Their rooms were beautiful and I would say worth every penny. |

The Billys place was absolutely lovely, and as others have said the two Blackpool ladies' jealousy is quite pathetic to see. The thing that always gets me, which was highlighted tonight, is how much some people expect or are able to eat in the morning. Billy's breakfast was described as sparse, when I saw cooked ham, continental meats, cheeses, fruit and cereals and that was before the cooked offerings! I love my food but the most I can eat at breakfast is either a bit of toast or some eggs and bacon.

It crossed my mind that perhaps Billy Jr. doesn't normally get involved in breakfast but did so on this occasion so that the other guests would feel he was making an effort, hoping not to get marked down for being absent. It might explain the slowish service, forgetting a plate, lack of usual condiments, etc. Not that I would mark down or underpay for lack of ketchup, you just ask for some and be done with it.

I thought the complaint was that the ketchup was on the side table, not on the diner's table? It's not an unusual setup - no point in cluttering up the eating area with all possible condiments that may or maynot be used. I sometimes wonder if these B&B owners actually travel very much as they seem so ignorant of common practice at times.
I think the Billys place was nicest this week, shame there were a few "open goals" that will allow others to underpay. But they certainly gave a good account of themselves and will get some business out of this week (which is, of course, the real prize )

I'll let you know what it's like if you'd like me to.
We've been to Ross on Wye twice, last time we stayed at The Kings Head, it was lovely there too, very clean, couldn't see any hairs or pee on the seat, or dust 😀 |

I thought I'd misunderstood the breakfast when that daft bint from Blackpool said it was a bit sparse, I was right in thinking you had the cold buffet and then the hot options, wasn't I ?

I'd happily stay at all of the places this week with the exception of the Canberra.
Nasty cheap run of the mill Blackpool boarding house with most rooms looking like a tarts boudoir, and equally horrible looking breakfast served in the Black Hole of Calcutta. I don't care if it's only £55 night, I wouldn't stay there if she paid ME! |

Trouble is they are the last to be on, so they have very limited time to get back and make sure everything is in place. I think there was a delay by the film crew which through him perhaps. I am sure he isnt like that usually, and I doubt he does it normally like you said.
