It was loads later than that, we didnt wake up til about 12.30 when the woman on reception phoned us telling us we needed to check out half an hour ago

Went round town and for some brekkie after that, think it was about 4 o clock when we saw the smashed evo

So who was it that caused all the agro in the hotel on sat night/sun morning?

When we checked out the manager had a right go accusing me of upseting the other people staying in the rooms opposite us

I had to tell her 3 times with some VERY strong hints that i was busy and was in no situation to be causing any hassle

Even threatened me and Jim with a charge!! A charge for what FFS
