I'm used to hotels providing free sewing kits but the Loews in Miami is the first one I've stayed in that also includes an 'intimacy kit'. However I think the wording on the back could be improved.

I should add that the kits are located in the mini-bar, between the vodka shots and the peanuts M&Ms – are we getting some kind of Freudian slippage here? Rest assured, the Gideons Bible is still in the drawer of the bedside table.

What would happen if they held a revolution – and I missed it? This pretty much happened to me yesterday as, due to a long lunch with the day job, I missed most of the disturbances in the City of London. Here are a few, suitably captioned, photos I took on my way back to Liverpool Street Station...
