Yesterday, I booked a hotel room for one of my fitters in Hotel Gattopardo, Verona.

How small do they go?

And are there others in the range of the Frying Pan of SPANG and the Cluebat?

Never mind how small they go, what about sizes suitable for a portly six-footer?

The profits from the hotel chain account for my vast wealth.

The exchange rate from Norwegian Krone is shocking

The teabag box in the on-board cafe. I don't think the Norwegians go in for tea much.

Danes love their fruity tea and looking at that box I think the Norwegians do so too.

RJ · « **Reply #841 on:** 05 December, 2014, 01:58:26 pm »

But not quite as much as they do their coffee, in my experience ...

Yes I keep forgetting that, strong black coffee is default for a - don't speak before first cup in the AM is gone - Dane, just like milk in tea is for Brit. I have never jumped on that band wagon, because I don't like to wake up in the morning, sometime in the afternoon maybe.

GIT!

Back in August I stayed a night about half a mile from New Belgium's base in Fort Collins. I didn't go a-visiting as it's no fun if you can't drink it.
