I wasn't bragging. I was just stating a fact which I thought might be
of immense interest to every body else. Especially those who might
not have stayed in a hotel. Of course I have not stayed in a hotel
in 1912 which probably would have been of even greater interest.
It just shows you though that we have already established a common link.
Perhaps we can compare notes on our hotel experiences.
On second thought I can't remember anything of interest happening,
Oh well!

Well, I remember being impressed by a machine that cleaned your shoes. Is that any good?

Not really. I had one. It was called a wife.
Strange thing.
I once lived in a tent for a week. In the Lake district.
I was in the Scouts.
Never again.

This is getting to sound like M.P's three yorkshiremen - or two Yorkshiremen and a Geordie

Tomkin: keep away from tents (fire risk) and caravans (boredom risk) and stick with the strange hotels. Even with a wife -
never again.

According to this Louth was on the line to Grimsby http://www.lincolnshirewoldsrailway.co.uk/history.html
Now haven't we mentioned Grimsby somewhere along the line? (excuse the pun). Could be the same architect and the same railway company?
