Wow last night I made tea and dessert from scratch! I'm impressed with myself because I used to cook all the time, but since living with Pete and his mum I feel like I'm invading their kitchen, also its because i don't have a lot of time to myself, but I'm over that now and I've started cooking again.

So last night we had mac...

More random moments from the hotel, I think I'm actually going to miss these when I leave!

So my girls and I have been working really hard and now everyone has left the restaurant and so now is the time that we can tidy up and relay the restaurant as quickly and as noisily as we want, but they're flagging and one of them has...

Saw Iron Maiden on Saturday and they were A-mazing! I'm not their biggest fan but even I can admit that they put on damn fine show! Bruce kept changing his outfits - well not a complete change but like coats and cloaks and masks and tops and the background kept changing too, depending on what song they sang. Eddie appeared twice, one from a sygophagus...

Sounds awesome. I've since found out about 4 different people were at the show though, I'm beginning to wonder if the audience was entirely made up of my friends. biggrin

"I am commited to creating caring experiences...every person, everytime"

No I'm not crazy, thats the Ramada Worldwide pledge i had to take last night at training. It's like being part of a secret society without all the perks!

So the training session wasn't too bad, but was more like a team building exercise, there were sweets and a cuddly toy for the person who did...

caller: wow you're on the ball!

If you can't talk nonsense on the phone to customers at work when can you talk nonsense? Espcially as the number of friendly customers in the world seems to be shrinking daily, make hay why the sun shines I say.
fry:
Yeah, it's all sorted thanks.

I get like that when I spot a word the reminds me of something else. Start talking to people like they have all the same reference material floating around their head that I do. It gets me some odd looks.
