I reckon Sue and John will underpay everyone by quite a lot!
I'm sure they will.

Yes, like I say it's not my type of place , but they should judge it by what it is ! It's like when they knock money off cos it's dearer than their place or area !

That's why I think they should compare similarly priced and 'starred' B&Bs.

Her husband was disappointed when she only bought cake moulds at a rubber party.
Surely 'swishing' only works if your friends are the same clothes and shoe size as you?

...luckily Mr B was out if the room at that point
not impressed with this menu - but I suppose it depends on what it looks and tastes like 
Monosodium glutamate can give me a headache if they are too heavy handed with it.

It is. My friend and I use to go to a Chinese restaurant for lunch when we went shopping in Glasgow. After half a dozen visits, we finally worked out that they must have been overdoing the MSG in their soups, as we had bouncing sore heads when we'd eaten it. It didn't put us off going, we just stopped having soup as a starter.

I thought we were supposed to avoid it ???
it tricks the tongue into thinking stuff tastes better than it actually is and is in lots of foodstuff that we eat i.e. tinned stuff and salad dressings and of course Chinese food - tis bad as it sends wrong neutral transmitter messages to the brain which can cause over stimulous from what I understand
