just to say thanks for info on jersey, it turns out we were booked at the merton hotel which is advertised in this edition of crossed grain,what a coincidence!we were there for 3 days b/b. i spoke to the restaurant manager who seemed quite savvy with it all and promised i would have bread for toast in the morning and cereals and if there was anything to just ask.hhmm
no bread following day so had quinoa puffs? (like eating cardboard)tinned fruit and a cooked breakfast (slice bacon scambled egg.) following day still no bread ....,so tinned fruit ,tried scambled egg again but it was awful i walked away by this time but my husband complained to the manager.he was very apologetic (he didnt work the previous day so lack of communication i think) and our last morning they could'nt do enough the bread had arrived by that time so i had toast and various other things and everything was ok.just to say though that we ate there every evening and everything was very nice plenty to choose from .but i just thought that as this is advertised in our magazine they should have been a little more on the ball,and perhaps i should have been a little more assertive to let them know in advance that we were coming .apart from that we had a wonderful time the weather was very nice and some great places to visit.
