He rang reception who seemed to think that he was on the sauce in the early afternoon but they agreed to send the housekeeper along. She couldn't find the bed and after more staff arrived, they discovered it was one of those pull down from the wall jobs. He kicked up a fuss about paying over £100 a night for a pull down bed and was allocated another room.<BR/>But he said that if had returned at night and failed to find the bed, he would have assumed he was pissed and slept on the floor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-18451491000589094122007-09-28T00:24:00.000+01:002007-09-28T00:24:00.000+01:00I can't stand him, Newmania.

In a sense, he's Andrew Sullivan's doppelganger.
