are you kidding?
Anyway.. Ponsonby or Chav.. it don't matter, its whoever has the money, when I stayed in the Burj Al Arab there were a family of Brits (they were from the North) staying there.. and around the pool all you could hear was.. "I TOLD you NOT to get wet before we went out you little shit"... "Oh leave him alone you silly bitch, he's on holiday" was the reply.

Oh my God...... the Burj Al Arab let Beebee stay there..........
