How to....... End up with a very expensive wardrobe filed in Guests
No, Adrian, this isn't about going to Ikea.
Obtaining what amounts to being a very expensive wardrobe is actually surprisingly simple. What you need to do is attend an event at a hotel that is at the higher end of a given price range. Dump your bag/clothes/belongings in the room, and go to the event.
During the event, get talking to people - or a certain person, more probably - and by the end of the night, *ahem* fail to sleep in the room you've paid for.
Voila, a room that has been used purely as a wardrobe (or luggage locker, if you prefer), for which you've paid the princely sum of £120.
Non, je ne regrette rien.

You hussy!
Karen - Tuesday June 15, 2004 12:29You were going to sleep in the wardrobe?
But you ended up sleeping in the mini-bar?
Am I right?
Vaughan - Tuesday June 15, 2004 12:36Close, Vaughan. However, it was suspiciously warm for a mini-bar - perhaps I'd accidentally hit the defrost button?
Lyle - Tuesday June 15, 2004 13:55wot no details?
e-voyeurs, sign up here.
Graybo - Tuesday June 15, 2004 20:42Absolutely not on the details. A distinct no-no.
Hussy I may be, Gobshite I'm not.
Lyle - Tuesday June 15, 2004 23:16So the 70's key swapping thing worked then?
Debster - Wednesday June 16, 2004 00:27Hah! No, but the idea of that has just made me laugh out loud.
Lyle - Wednesday June 16, 2004 08:39For the purpose of dumping my luggage before going for a meal with colleagues, I dashed into my room and was confronted by chairs, desks, a TV etc - but no bed?
Gingerly testing what I took to be a communicating door (though it didn't actually speak)I found my bedroom - with even more chairs, desks - and another TV.
For one guest. And (unfortunately) just used by that one guest.
