our conversation.
I haven't stayed at N @ TB for donkeys, but have done on occasion previously and have also been known to rate it here when I was more active forumite. I have read all your wonderful JBRs and see that the warung, restaurant situation down there seems to have picked up a bit. My boys always remember one place ten years ago that had a pet bat!!!!!!
I know you talk about the Euro groups/the war and toasters etc, but I kind of enjoyed the mix at the NTB. Some hotels are like downtown Perth or North Sydney or full of punters who took up this months special from the Kremlin travel agent, in other words single nationality dominated. The NTB is not like that IMHO.
Main thing is that at heart (and age) I am a hedonist, and I can still indulge the need for R&R and comfort and atmosphere without breaking the bank at the old N @ TB.
Do do a tour of some of the newer places, namingly the new Santrian brand villas when you go for your daily constitutional won't you - I'd cannot wait to read of your future hilarious epistles.
