Is he the same person as that oily creep Alex Perry who sells sunglasses?They look exactly the same. (and I get the impression that both of them are about 4 ft tall for some reason) An arse based designer sunglasses campaign is needed.

You’re most welcome, vegan. I’m hoping BSWAM might be able to cast some more, erm, light, on it.

Nice old place. Had no idea it was currently a B&B. It’s location next to the colossal waterfall that spills through that town down to the Hudson makes me think a peaceful night’s sleep is not in the offing. But you’re paying for atmosphere.

Thanks, BSWAM. I was particularly pleased to read that the locals had the good sense to save it when it was headed for demolition in 1979. With so much romance in the air, I doubt sleep would be high on the agendas of many.
p.s. TWOP readers might also want to check these out. More unusual than cool, however.
