I have a couple of mates out in Vegas at the moment and they had this to report....

The Riviera.

Quote


Anyone wanting a football, cricket or rugby fix it"s the place to be. They"ve got a British pub there now with multiple screens and show all the Premier league games, with the sports book next door. We managed a full English including fried bread and HP sauce, a bit expensive but a decent plate of grub.




Seems like a good enough reason to avoid Riviera... what is about "the Brit" abroad and the need for an English pub and a "Full English"??

lol - that"s along the lines of what I was thinking when I read it.

What"s the point of going overseas for a holiday if you"re looking for an English pub and a "Full English" when you get there?

Oh, I agree....but it"s there for information for those who need their footie/sport fix.

I could care less about "English Beer"....but a decent fry-up just once over a couple of weeks is OK.

I think the only person who has definitely booked is Ger. He"s in Harrahs but he jumped the the gun because he had a load of comps which got him the week for about $80.


Yep me and wee man in Harrahs.


Sounds like the place to be then

Perhaps it would be a good idea to update the OP with the names of those who have booked, along with dates and hotel.

Oui ou non?

Just dropped this into a conversation with the wife....


"Just thought I"d let you know that I"m going to Vegas in November with APAT."

"Okay, that"s fine. Which hotel are we staying at ?"

AFAIK, so far it"s only

Ger Jnr
Adam
Joobs

I WILL be going but haven"t booked yet.

I realise that... but I"m sure that as people do book, they will probably post on this thread. The OP could be updated each time so that others who have yet to decide where to stay could see at a glance where people are staying.

But if it doesn"t sound like a plan, then that"s OK.

I"ve given this a go, from skimming through the thread, because I need to sort out my plans, so was curious as to who had already booked.  If I"ve missed any definite details so far, just let me know.

Thanks for that Leigh.

I"ve corrected my name ( ;D) and added what hotels I am aware of....if people are moving hotels (as I am) then I"ve shown that.

I may tweak it later to make it more of a time-line vs location thing but what you"ve kindly done is an excellent start.

It was getting late Paulie  ;)  Going to try and work some dates out this weekend, as might try and tag this Vegas trip onto other holiday plans.

 :3s:Think myself and The Rock are looking at booking very shortly, along with Phil TC. Looking likely to fly from MCR on same flight as Smyth"s i would think.

Hotel wise we are still looking but me and soft lad like the look of Imperial Palace for 13 notes a night!
