Carry On

The Hotel that Susan and I are staying in at the moment is very Colonial. The rooms are spread over four floors with a big hole in the centre of the building that is open to the skies. The sun-deck and pool are on the roof, the ‘English’ bar (very good Mojito) and dining room are on the ground floor along with the spa, billiard room and cinema. The staff are very polite and speak primarily french (i know the two don’t normally go together) with a good smattering of english. The doorman and porters are wearing the little red Fez style hats and we are being looked after very well. For some reason however, all the pampering to all our needs makes me feel like Sid James from the carry on movies (but that is not saying that Susan looks anything like Joan Simms) and I find myself constantly waiting for the arrival of Roy Castle, but desperately hoping not to bump into Bernard Bresslaw. Some of you may be too young to remember this classic but lets hope it is on the box during the christmas period and the sky + is working and not full up with strictly or x factor.!!
