Double Your Silliness

"Darling, does that giant wave look like it's headed our way? 
I don't wish to be swept off to sea in a bathtub."

Here's what happens when you ponder the silliness of certain commericials, such as the one for Cialis, that suggest a mood-setting strategy from an alternate universe. The likelihood of finding side- by-side bathtubs on the shore seems pretty slim, if you ask me. And even if you don't ask me, I'm telling you, anyway, because that's how I roll. The chances are remote. 

One of our favorite WTF moments in England

Would you settle for side-by-side baths at a Brighton hotel? If so, then get yourself to Hotel Du Vin, where you can double your pleasure, wink wink, or, if you're anything like the SJG and hubby, giggle yourself stupid -- did I mention the bathtubs are inside the bedroom? -- and threaten to take juxtaposing soaks, and then never get around to it because it's just too silly. Check out the telescope in the corner, perfect for star-gazing or spying on neighbors at adjacent hotels. 

Our other favorite WTF moment: On keyboards, the musical stylings of Zebra Man.

My Royal Pavilion by the sea. You like? Sleeps 30 on a slow night.

  1. Hi Carol, So glad you're enjoying your visit to my old home town. Yup, I'm a Brighton Gal and if you took the tour of the Pavillion, you'll have learned that today's scandalous Royals have NOTHING on old Prince Regent. Have a great visit.

  3. Competitive bathing? Didn't know there was such a thing. That'll be one to look out for in the next Olympics.

    Incidentally, are you sure this is really England you're visiting and not some clever forgery? Only I can't help noticing the sky seems to be suspiciously blue in all of your photographs...

  4. Once again, Bun, you've caught me. I may have Brightoned (get it?!) things up a bit with my fancy filter system provided by iPhone. Then again, we had pretty nice weather while I was in your adopted U.K.
