    One year I would say, depending on hotel/clients like a turbo on a rally car it will have a short life.

    Some hotel mattresses have great lives. Don't live an average life mattresses.

    Depends on the crab quota.

    If you're considering buying the ex-hotel beds The Star used advertise ,don't bother.

    A friend of mine got one of those,now he has aids or some sh1t.

    Depends on the amount of bumming it has taken..

    Half the life of an orginary folks one, twill be grand. Shure ordinary folk sleep every night on theres, a hotel bed wouldn't even have 100% occupancy.

    Have you ever seen the mattresses in Trabolgan? Those have had a long hard life.

    Top tip when it comes to hotels: Never drink out of the kettle. Trust me.

    I studied Hospitality Management amd worked in hotels from I remember mattresses would only be replaced when they were needed to be or if the rooms were being revamped. Generally a good quality mattresses would be bought and mattress protectors are nearly always used.
    I know somebody who works with a pest control company and they say that the amount of bed bugs in hotel rooms in unreal and he said the hotels generally keep the mattress whilst people who get them at home generally throw them out.

    The average hotel mattress has had at least one death on it.

    Well.... There goes the fookin tea and coffee the next time away....

    Regarding the whole kettle thing. I'd advice anybody not use the glasses or mugs in a room.

    Any reason kettles in particular are such a pube hot spot? Kettles: what kind of a life must they lead!

    Sure a kettle, the heat it can get to and all, whatever bad there might be on those pubic hairs would be boiled right out of them, perfectly safe to swallow I'd say..

    Other people's pubic hairs are safe to swallow?

    It's not safe, it's gross.

    Now THIS is a classy thread.

    I'd put it in the same league as "how often do you go to the toilet / spend a penny".

    Or as classy as whatshername on sky news asking the wife of a murderer if he'd still have done it if their sex life had been better.

    Sure the tea bags are practically full of pubes, what do you think gives the tea it's rich colour?

    Reminds me of the time I went into the local chipper.
    The filthy mare behind the counter asked me if I wanted salt and vinegar,to which I replied "Yeah,loads of it please".

    To my horror there was a pube sticking out of the top of the vinegar bottle as she shook it vigourously over my fries.

    Starving and all as I was,they went straight in the bin.

    The dirty fcukin cnut.

    I work away from home and stay in the same 3 or 4 hotels all the time. Never bothered bringing my own shampoo and conditioner, until last week.
    So there I am with the shampoo washed out, and reach on the miniature conditioner bottle. Now these things are a real pain to open usually, but the top just popped right off this one. Great I thought, things are finally going right in my life. So I lathered it on, and it kinda smelled funny and had a slightly different texture. Thought nothing of it till I was telling the lads at breakfast the following morning. Ha says one of them, some fecker probably jizzed into the bottle, I done that on holidays one time!
    Well suffice to say, the rest of the breakfast went in the bin, and haven't used conditioner since

    What you don't know wont hurt you.
    You should see some of the disgusting things people working in restaurants and cafes do and you wouldnt think twice when your nice looking food comes.
    Cutlery washed with cold water, just to take visible dirt away.
    Tables washed with disgusting old clothes that are used to clean everything and anything dirty in the resturant..
