Lazy like a Sunday morning. That’s how the song goes isnt it? And Sunday morning is the theme for The Gallery this week.
To be honest our Sunday morning this week was rather lazy. And a bit weird. You see we woke up in the Malmaison Hotel in Reading, having stayed there after our night in Henley.
Now I love waking up in hotels but I have a bit of a beef about some of them. First of all, is it really beyond the whit of man to have more than one tea bag each? A lazy Sunday morning away from home should be about sitting in bed drinking tea and reading the paper. Though I should point out at least this hotel delivered the complimentary paper to the door. When we stayed in the Madjeski last weekend, a) they charged for it, and b) we had to pick up from reception when we checked out. Well what is the bloomin’ point in that?!
So anyway, tea bags. Yes. I want a couple of them. And I want fresh milk. I don’t want UHT in a poxy pot.
Oh and another thing. Would it be possible do you think to have a kettle I can fill from the sink, rather than the bath? Hmmmmm? This clearly isn’t working, is it?
This Sunday morning though, it was all about the wooden bath.
A bath
Made of wood
And in our bedroom
Not that bathroom
But the bedroom
So whilst I lay in bed catching up on GQ magazine Mr B had a wooden bath whilst drinking tea.
We will gloss over the fact it was in the bay window and above a busy shopping street because it all starts to sound a bit Amsterdam. But as Sunday mornings go, I can think of worse ways to spend it.
I would so love to soak in that bath, it looks awesome! But yeah, ridiculous sink/kettle/teabag arrangement, Malmaison should know better!
Love the bath! Could spend all day wallowing in it! I’m with you on the tea bag and milk front too!
I hate UHT milk. That’s not real milk! And you need about 10 of them for a proper cuppa. That is an interesting looking bath though!
OMG is that the bath or the bed? I’d definitely need a pillow in that. And proper builder’s tea bags
That bath looks amazing! Was it comfy?
Al Murray has a long running kettle versus tap in hotel thing going on twitter. It’s madness isn’t it. I take my own tea bags wherever I go these days! My hotel bug bear is having to check out at 10am. 10am! I’m only just waking then!
That looks like a great way to spend a Sunday morning x
Love your comments about hotels, we stayed in one last weekend too, we had 2 tea bags in a 2 bedroom suite designed for 6 people, when we asked for more they gave us another two!!! Argggghhhhh! Gotta love that bath but not sure about the positioning of it!
Now that’s quite random! Have just returned from Amsterdam. The bath was in the bathroom and nobody was able to see anything from our window. Those special windows just up the road were a very different story though!
That bath looks amazing! Thanks for popping over to my blog too.
Love that bath!
What an interesting Sunday morning you had! I get annoyed with hotels too when they skimp on the basics like a tea bag!!
WOW that bath i have to say looks pretty amazing!! although perhaps not in a window!
