Just had  a call this morning from one of our regular hotels.

This morning the cleaners went to clean the hotel bar toilets and all the ceiling had fallen in and there was water all over the place. 

They eventually traced it to a guests room above the bar, he had got in after midnight and decided to run himself a bath........then fallen asleep!

However, that is not the only issue with this guest, when they knocked on his door they could smell sh!t.  He had sh!t himself through the night and it was spread over both duvet covers (2 singles) all over the the carpet, on the walls and through the bathroom.

We got called to ask if we could clean up all the mess and dump all the bedding and the carpets.........delightful!!!!!

The chap was still in the room when we got there, still looking pis*ed and not bothered or embarrassed in the slightest, apparently he'd even been down for breakfast and complained that his eggs were overcooked!

Our bill so far is over £200 and we haven't even started drying out the bar toilets yet.  Back in tomorrow morning to rip off the toilet ceiling and stick in a dehumidifier and sahara for a few days.

Happy Easter!!

I was supposed to be off for an archery lesson today with my daughter, but it's been cancelled due to the winds.

You sure you did'nt recognise the guest

All I know is that he was Irish, he's up here with a group of others and was off to the Newcastle game today.  He ws supposed to be stopping in the hotel till Monday.........not anymore, I think he is now "persona non gratis"

Lionheart find out where he is staying, you might have some more work next week.

Chris, my son used to play for a local team Old Town Boys for five years, he switched to Rugby three years ago, we now make the occasional visit to the hospital on top 

I left the phone on today and picked up four jobs   

By the way, I sent an e mail about the Charly Pads to Soultion DE, I will let you know when I have some more info.

The insurance company have given us the go ahead to do the full job. So:

New carpet getting fitted Tuesday
Electrics being checked out and air movers/dehumidifiers are in, ceiling and tiles have been pulled off
Plasterer/Tiler sorted for when area is dry
Got my own decorator to paint.

Is there anything else I've missed?

Could this be the start of a happy relationship with insurance companies.......doubt it, but it would be nice

Went in today to have a look at how it's getting along on the drying front.

John Kelly has loaned me 3 Drieaz machines and an extra Sahara to get the place dried out and it seems to be coming along very nicely.  My new ex Rainbow technician is keeping me in check and overseeing the op.

Ripped off the bath panel today, along with the hardboard that was under the lino
