Straight off the Radisson Brussels website, as I­ suspected:

"With a well-provisioned lobster bar­ and innovative menu from Executive chef Yves Mattagne,­ the Sea Grill is a must for lovers of gourmet seafood!­ Highly-ranked in several French and international­ gastronomic guides, the restaurant serves excellent­ culinary delights along with a variety of digestives­ and an extensive wine list. The restaurant even has a­ Christofle press; designed by Le Divellec, this­ instrument contains 27 kg of pure silver and is one of­ only four which exist in the world. Two private rooms­ are also available and are suitable for groups of up to­ 18 guests."

I refer you once again to Wikipedia's 'how to­ tell if someone is a pathological liar'

3. They­ "construct" a reality around themselves. They­ don't value the truth, especially if they don't­ see it as hurting anyone. If you call them on a lie and­ they are backed into a corner, they will act very­ defensively and say ugly things (most likely but­ depends on personality), but they may eventually start­ to act like, "Well, what's the difference?­ You're making a big deal out of nothing!"­ (again, to refocus the conversation to your wrongdoing­ instead of theirs).

To a tee....

I hesitate to say it given the events of today, but I­ can't stop myself: You spelt Radisson wrong­ toutou. ;-P

and 2 s's

Toutou I see you have such an elegant turn of phrase­ this evening.

I would suggest I have been to more­ countries in the world than you have given your­ restricted understanding of 'life'. I can tell­ you in my last trek into Europe I stayed in two­ Radissions in different cities, both of which were the­ cheapest hotels I stayed in, facilities wise they were­ not to the same standard as others. I have been to­ Brussels, but do not like the place, I have been to­ Antwerp (on more than one occassion) Toutou I can­ safely say you will never be able to out 'gain'­ me.

I do have a rather exciting and full life and­ this forum is just relaxation for as it is for most­ people, it is not our life. I have achieied more in my­ life than you have in yours, I do not and never have­ felt sorry for myself, though your comprehension does­ not allow you to understand my humour and how I live­ life so that is your problem not mine. I am open about­ things as I find it stops people from feeling guilty or­ being worried if they drop themselves in it, which by­ the way I find amusing.

So unless you want to look­ even more stupid I suggest that you do not try to out­ do me in certain areas as you will not succeed.

Yes­ the Radissons are for me a run of the mill hotel. By­ the way anyone who stays there knows that they have­ only 1 D

"Well­ ellie you obviously havn't lived and­ been to­ Brussels, and stayed at the Raddison Blu and­ relaxed in­ the Pebble Wood Corner" - touronroute­ #41

Neither have you touronroute. You have just­ looked it up on the internet. You are a liar and a bad­ one at that.

I don't know why Ghosn is banging on about not­ being fair - his team got off lightly from the race­ fixing scandal. Very, very lightly.

I have to agree Donald D (#36)

Monica I think you will find that the crash scandal was­ carried out by the Renault Formula 1 team. Carlos­ Ghosn is CEO of the Renault Car Company who ultimately­ own Renault F1 but I very much doubt he was a party to­ the scandal. He has always been doubtful of the value­ of F1 to his company and the motor industry at large.

"... the sport is not "going to be very­ important for anybody, if it doesn't answer some of­ the concerns that surround (it)"
This is rich,­ from people who won the race by ordering a pilot into a­ wall! I'm really a step from hailing F1 goodbye­ forever(and good riddance.

Touronroute everyone knows that you were telling lies­ about going to Belgium to watch the GP at Spa when you­ were talking about the amount of Belgian Francs you­ were spending. When you followed this up by saying you­ were joking that just made everyone laugh even­ more.

Remember next time when you want to string some­ continental lies together that it's Euros nowadays.

Come on Johnny Boy, why are you keeping on with that­­ muppet ID formula1police? Everyone knows it's you­­ posting as that moron, so why keep it up?

Keno Boy (muppetloot to you guys) do you think your­ pointress blagging is going to impless anyone on this­ site. No one berieves you are a high rorrer and no­ amount of blagging on your part will convince anyone­ diffelent.

This is what rittle chirdlen do in the­ school prayglound and it is acceptabre flom them but­ not flom a 70 year old man.

Stop the ries Keno Boy.
