I&#8217;ve surpassed myself for booking into a bizarre hotel. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stoneleighparklodgehotel.activehotels.com\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Stoneleigh Park Lodge\">Stoneleigh Park Lodge Hotel<\/a> is situated in the middle of the Stoneleigh National Agricultural Centre showground, a most unusual setting. For those that have never been to a major agricultural showground, it&#8217;s a wide open space with a grid of roads and seemingly randomly placed buildings which are left unused for much of the time. One of those buildings, in this case, happens to be a hotel. I reckon there are no more than ten guests here. The restaurant is in another of the randomly placed buildings, about two hundred yards distant across a &quot;green&quot;. I can&#8217;t decide if I want to be the only guest in the restaurant but be able to have a glass or three of vin rouge with my meal, or if I want to drive into Warwick and see if there is any more life to be had, but be limited to just the one beverage. Hmm.<br \/>\nI think Warwick will most likely win.<br \/>\nOn the plus side, the hotel is quiet, comfy and has a phone point. All pluses. And it&#8217;s reasonably priced, though not the cheapest. &pound;50 for a double room, including breakfast. But then PFE is paying, so it doesn&#8217;t matter, does it?<br \/>\nOh yeh. I&#8217;m PFE. Arses.<br \/>\nIncidentally, isn&#8217;t there a blogger in Warwick. Where does that Dead Kenny bloke hang out?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OK, I admit it.
