There goes my trip to Belgium. I bet if I put an upfront deposit they'd gladly harbour an emigrant but that's the world these days, too obsessed with money.
With that in mind I thought I'd get them to name their price for the giant picture in the main hall. I'm assuming they have one as most hotels do; something obscure, often a local scene or something everyone can relate to like an old car. Time to find out.
Message to Riverside Hous Hotel, Bakewell
"Dear Sir/Madam/proprietary type,
My uncle Grant recently partook in sleeping arrangements in your fine hotel and told me there was a picture in the main hall that I would be very interested in. Everyone has a price and so I wondered what the cost of the picture might be as I trust my uncle's judgement entirely.
Should you need a replacement I know a gentleman called Troy who has a scar down his face and paints beautifully from his cell in Dartmoor. He gives me great reductions so please consider this when making me an offer.
Kind regards,
T. Lander, esq."
