mascamps.com Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Tea/coffee spilt is as nothing compared to red wine. I think the problem we had with the brits staying and looking for the kettle is that they expected a brit-run place to have brit facilities. Net effect was that they worded their comments along the lines of "the hosts showed no concern for the welfare of their guests as they didn't even have a kettle in the room". Had we been a french-run place, their expectations would have been completely different I think. Arnold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassis Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Presumably if they were in a French run place they would be happy with the tiny, scrubbing-brush rough teacloths that the average French B&B calls towels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
