Both Andy and jarcher : I have a theory that these places are part of an international chain, the Director of which is that well known old soldier, General Incompetence

I am pretty sure the missus and I stayed at the same place in Levelland, Texas (yes flat as a pancake, half way between the mountains of New Mexico and the verdant rivers of Central Texas). The THIRD room we were moved to had a bed balanced on cinder blocks that we had to level, and we smelled Indian cooking all night through the vents. I tried to take a late dip in the pool but alas the floating dead opossum kind of ruined the mood.

Yes I too have been in those places where sleep becomes priceless, mind you the worst place I have stayed was a hotel in Hartlepool where you couldn\'t open the window without a seagull becoming your guest!

Great poem, horrendous accommodation. I never stay in pubs for all the reasons you outline. You\'re no youngster, are you new to finding accommodation? There\'s lessons to be learned here LOL. Oh - always take earplugs and a torch.

Finale
Goldfinch60 said:

Organised religion is a farce, I used to be involved in christianity, I used to be a Chaplain at one point but over the last few years I have parted from christianity and all its untrue beliefs. I still belive Jesus existed but I look upon him as the first Hippie.
I still believe in god but it is MY god. I still go to church as I enjoy singing in the choir, meeting good friends and have free car-parking in town.

May YOUR god go with you Dave.

Glad all worked out well Dave, I have great respect for those who work in hospitals, whenever I or my wife have had to be there they have always been so good.

I enjoyed this and like the villanelle form. It is a worry with people being exposed to dangers at work. That shouldn\'t be happening.

your last two stanzas are deceptively brilliant,
really like the tone and natural story telling rhythm you maintained throughout your write, you have a unique style to add to the multifaceted buffet that is MPS, just needs refining, which will inevitable come with practice and time,
wonderful write

People change the views so often but you have the memories and you are right in saying the sky is still there, it may change but will never go away.

Welcome to MPS.
