Didn’t get to my hotel till 8am and passed the ground twice. Ended up in some coucil estate with a load of little grey houses then walking through a big park to where I could see tall buildings. Numerous duel carrigeways and an underpass as well. One of the worst situations I’ve ever been in. Phone dead and no money Was only trying to get from one premier inn to the other. I’d already got undressed and tried to get in to a room at the first one. It was the wrong hotel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ha, I tried to find my way back to the city centre that day on my own because every one fucked off at 4-0 and I stayed to the bitter end, after an hour or so walking around in circles and trying to get my bearings i luckily found my way to a city centre park and ride location it was the last bus going back into town and the driver let me on for free because no other fucker was on board he even dropped me off outside the hotel, otherwise I’d be still there now.

The security bloke had let me in as he was having a tab outside and I just waved my card at him. He then clocked me trying to get in my room for ages with my clothes under my arm. Came to investigate and said this is temple meads premier inn. I was in the other across town Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
