Nah folks,its all good now.We're in SW Colorado (Cortez) and have spent a couple of quality days at Mesa Verde,which is jaw-droppingly spectacular.When they eventually make me King over here,I shall make it a crime not to come to Mesa Verde.
We've had internet issues at the local Super8.We booked in for a couple of nights,but a couple of hours later,their net went toes-up
I went down to try and sort it out,but their desk staff on the first night were less than capable of flicking the power off and on on their wireless router,and on the second night the princess-embryo manning the desk rudely exclaimed that because her myspace page was working on the public lobby PC (which wasnt connected to their wireless network) then my machine must be at fault.Didnt I know how to work a computer?
Needless to say,we're now at a different Motel,and my machine connected to this network and the net,first time of asking.
I left the housekeeping staff at the Super8 a note, explaining that they wouldnt be getting the nice tip I leave everywhere (I dont,but hey,),due to their rude and incompetant desk staff.
I'd have complained to the management,but at no point did anyone seem to be in charge,despite a veritable library of 'Certificates of Excellence' behind the desk.I then thought about taking a c**p in the tip jars that were all over the Motel,and thrust into our lines of sight at every opportunity,but I didnt want to appear ignorant.
