31 bedrooms....surely that's too much to take on
the blue axminster carpet in the bedrooms is a bit much
Theyâre being squeezed out by the big chains

I think thatâs probably average Hi Sprout

I always think she is slightly cruel in her comments
feck scrooge is enough to male you wanna leave

I think it's her cruel to be kind sort of thinking, mostly she's cruel

She certainly cuts to the chase

she is truthful but brutal as well and I feel she really means it - and its not just just for TV
If it turns that hotel around from making nothing to something, well......

I've never liked her to be honest, typical family leg up and thinks being successful gives you a right to be plain nasty
Dame_Ann_Average posted:Sprout posted:She gets results though, she knows how to do it

and me - its not always the best way to ridicule and destroy although some do respond to it and improve - think it depends on the person

she really narks me, voted Brexit and now moaning to high heaven it's gonna affect the Forte business and they won't get the cheap foreign labour ...tough, you'll still not suffer Alex with your family millions
the actual building has some lovely features
One plus is that she does usually do up bits of it for them.....even if I donât sometimes like what she does
Syd posted:I am torn, hotels can be sterile..........
They can I guess, but there's a way to make them not

she's a Forte, they are worth millions

He's like a rabbit caught in the headlights
Sitting in it empty would be depressing.

yes, they do do odd rooms, I'm not sure if she coughs it up out of her personnel wealth though

Wipe out your 'Real' identity and create a new one..............
it certainly has potential

Her grandfather is Lord Forte, she manages two hotels for her mother (his daughter)
wow that is gorgeous
Baz posted:Oh wow

Stunning

I wouldn't argue the point, I have no idea...just would have thought the production would have paid for it
So many dusty Knick Knacks in that pile!
St least she's going with her. A lot of peeps rail against her
Decluttering all that rubbish is a good place to start

wow didn't know that - yes she must be loaded
Syd posted:So many dusty Knick Knacks in that pile!
I got the impression it was just a spare room that was used for storage

yes just thinking that

I think prolly the mother had the ideas and now that she's ill, they don't know what to do with it, plus as Yogi says, they're competing against a chain
'Scrubbed Clean' does not always feel welcoming to me....
Rocking Ros Rose posted:yes - a house needs the same sometime
if you haven't used it, wore it or thought about it in 12 months ...chuck it

You don't have to have it brilliant white like a hospital but things can be done
I just think they need some guidance
Sprout posted:I think prolly the mother had the ideas and now that she's ill, they don't know what to do with it, plus as Yogi says, they're competing against a chain
I have no good memories of 'Chains' just memories of smaller concerns, even the bad ones have left me with a smile on my face...
Lovely window

Large chains tend to be soulless, imo

An average wedding
I could've been at my nephew's wedding this weekend in Cornwall, but I wasn't invited. Having said that I don't speak to him really. Not because of anything nasty though. Just family's grown apart
Baz posted:ÂĢ18k

Baz posted:ÂĢ18k

ÂĢ18, 000 pounds for an AVERAGE wedding!..........live in sin I say.......

The minute you mention wedding, the prices shoot up.
Same goes for bands, photographers etc.
She knew what to do, she just needed some guidance

I'm going to watch that programme about people competition eating, 3000 calories per minute. Well, at least until I go to bed.
