Cheers. Spoke to someone at Audiens this morning, and they said as I'm not a company who employs people, entertains clients or holds large stocks of merchandise I don't need permission from anybody in the building. If any of the tenants want to get all Parisian on me, I'll go tell them where to stick it!

Naturally (and with a sharp point!). The building manager was told by phone, but wants confirmation of it in email. Oh formality, formality, wherefore art thy informality.

This dress code thing has always escaped me. Was turned away from the Casino thingy in Baden Baden, when a bouncer the size of Plymouth Harbour showed me "la porte" whilst pointing to the dress code statement. I translated this as "black tie". So, next day, I turn up in cut off jeans, T shirt with "World Domination by Friday" on it and a black tie, only to be chucked out again.

C'est tres difficile, non?

I go to the one near us,for the odd thing or two,and the man on the door always hands me a basket. And never has complained about the way i dress.

Do tell us how you dress stan. We're all ears.

Andy, isn't Baden Baden in Germany?

Ah, Stan, your secret is out - a closet gambler eh, haunting the local Casino, and what's the basket for? All your winning chips no doubt. Well, talking of language I suppose Money is the universal language, opens many doors so I am told, that are closed to us poor proletariat ....

Yep, Novo, Baden Baden is that spa town place, with a Karla Koala or something, giant jacuzzi with a steam room and funny hot bricks and the water jets out and hits you in the whatsits and all in good fun I suppose. Lots of very serious German bodybuilders in there, and some puny French, plus a load of Very Scary Women that looked like a cross between Sylvester Stallone and Mariah Carey ... not for the faint-hearted that ....

Novocastrian

That's what I thought. At least they don't have a dress code in the steam baths. There's nothing like that near where I am. Honest.

Ewood

Have to confess I've never been to a Casino. What is the basket for?

Jazzy n Lol

To put all your eggs in?

Actually, I think our Stan has got confused in his dotage, and is really talking about the local grocery store...

You are so clever, please put the guard on, or you could cut yourself.

Ka Ora!

Yup this will be the the One

We have one pretty crap really, just for the little town folk that cant be bothered walking to the Bigger ones. But they open Sundays which is quite handy
