Day 13



Jan 13th, Friday – Overcoming any fear of getting chopped into small pieces today by any member of the Voorhees family, I reluctantly left the house and had a crazy day of work, setting up an event at the Hilton, Heathrow. Working 8am till 7pm before retiring for a few hours rest in one of the Hilton rooms, then de-rigging between 1am and 7am (when I got back home). These are not fun hours. I am also not safe to drive after that long a day.

Anyway, the main excitement was being given a free room at the Hilton and seeing how the posh suits live. I used the lever operated shoe buffer (on my trainers). I used the ice machine to crush Ice for my bottle of juice. I looked in the minibar and at the price list. I then quickly closed the minibar. I drank nice filtered coffee. I took some toiletries. Oh yes.

And at one point, a lady arrived at my door. She asked if I wanted turn down service. I was confused, as I’ve been turned down many times before and know how it feels. So I said no, thank you.

She said ok and gave me a couple of chocolates.

Clearly I had answered correctly and won.

I waited to see if anyone else would come round with questions in return for more sweets, but to no avail.
So yeah, that was my posh hotel stay. And people say Friday 13th is unlucky....
