Seriously, puppy boy totally sounds like my 19yo. Sigh.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Kathy, The Point, which is in a really good location, but it just sort of ok. The breakfast is buffet, mostly good, but this is the first place we stayed where you can't get the staff to bring you an actual pot of tea, and have to make a cup yourself. The food at dinner was good but nothing special and the atmosphere is kind of boring. The 20 pounds a day for internet in your room is a huge negative for me, but they're trying to get out of the contract, and there are other places along the street with free wifi.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I ended up buying a pair of the Gallifreyan earrings. There was a silver-toned pair.

Thanks, sj! I'm trying to get an idea of where Mom and I can stay in Edinburgh, York, and London, in particular (we'll probably B&B it the rest of the time).

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Kathy, I highly recommend the Regency Hotel located at Queensgate St in London. More reasonable than anything else we found and very nice. We didn't stay in York, but the Fleece Inn at Haworth is lovely.

Happy to help. I'll e-mail you a list of places we recommend eating at, when I'm home and recovered from the jet lag. I found it very easy to make reservations online ahead of time, if you're interested in doing that kind of thing.

I just checked--the Regency is fully booked for June and July, it looks like.

Kathy, I'm sorry to hear that. I didn't have any trouble booking at the last minute, but I guess October is easier.

Wee--I just had to open up my room options, and there are rooms available! So, a "club twin" is different than a "regency twin" how?
ETA: my sister warned me that the terminology for British hotel rooms is very confusing--she was right!
