Just been to MMI. They're playing Christmas songs.

Re: Room 101

School proms.

When we left school we had a disco in the WMC up the road. No beauty salons, £££ dresses or limos. Lots of hairspray, Sweater Shop jumpers and a 30 minute walk.

Re: Room 101

I work in an office in a hotel where a lot of muslims stay so, yeah, it does seem strange. There's only one prayer room for office staff as well.

Re: Room 101

Yeah, total waste of time.
All the certificates etc are stuck inside the sleeves so are no longer intelligible.

Re: Room 101

I remember being in a bar in the Westin a few years ago (don't think it's there now) when a lass wasn't wearing any shoes. She walked straight onto some broken glass. Blood everywhere, stupid idiot.
