Where do traveling business people stay?

by Tricia

Have you ever traveled, perhaps for business and ended up staying in one of those Condo Hotels?

To the best of my knowledge condo hotels are similar to hotels as far as book and service goes but because the accommodations really are in a condo I think they are meant for longer stays.

That’s why I was asking if any one had traveled on business and stayed in one. Perhaps you were assigned to an office in another city for three to six months to train for a higher promotion or to train other employees? I could see businesses renting out condo’s for long periods of time to house their traveling employees in.

Discount Blinds at Terrys Fabrics

by Tricia

How have you dressed you windows? I know that some people prefer curtains while others prefer blinds. I suppose it depends upon the style of the house and the decor of the room as to which style of window dressing you might choose to use.

I have a mix or blinds and curtains in my 1920’s style home. I’ve found that curtains just don’t look right in my smaller spare bedrooms so I’ve opted to use Roman blinds which roll up into folds of material and have a curtain like effect. I also use mini blinds on my small basement windows as I find blinds makes it easier to allow the amount of light into the room that I want while making it hard for anyone outdoors to see into the room.

If you have been looking for blinds for your home you might want to take a look at the wide selection at TerrysFabrics.co.uk.

You’ll find a large variety of blinds at Terrys. They have Roller blinds, Roman blinds kits, Roman blinds, Venetian blinds, Vertical blinds, and wooden blinds. The company also offers quality custom made blinds.

If you have been considering getting some blinds for your home do check out the selection at Terrys Fabrics. The prices are great and the selection is outstanding.

Radar detectors are illegal here

by Tricia

A while back one of our friends got pulled over for some kind of driving infraction and the police caught him with a radar detector in the car.

I know that radar detectors are legal in some US States but I don’t believe that they are legal anywhere in Canada.

Well it turns out that he got a big fine. I think it was a couple thousand dollars but don’t quote me on that.

Isn’t that terrible? He was using the radar detector so he could get home a little faster and in the end it turns out that it set him back a few thousand!

It doesn’t seem worth it, does it?
