3 British woman turn up wanting to check in. Like us they arrived before 3pm so locked luggage in the steel room and went sight seeing.
Returned, they need to get cases to change for the northern lights tour at 2030hrs. Receptionist hands key then gets distracted. Shorty after ( very shortly) same women are at bar throwing back happy hour red wine ( should have been my choice) then disappear to eat.
Enter 2 more British woman wanting to check in and get luggage before going on same trip. No key. Who had key? Thai girl can't find. I remind her about the other woman and the penny drops. Under a ever increasing hostile environment from the 2 woman she txts the manager for spare key then travel agent for mobile numbers. By the time Jill comes down its time to get out of Dodge City.
Safety settled back at the Skal bar waiting for my beer and spiced pork on a bed of mash I realise I've left my bloody phone on the bar. Running, yes running on the snow in my new boots ( see later) I get back to the hotel to find 2 guys with a crowbar, hammer and chisel trying to get into the steel, left luggage vault ⚒️. Collect phone and exit.🤗
Stroll back to bar to find some french b#£#£## has walked away with my beer 😡! All apologies from staff, new beer arrives. What next ?🤔
