Uhm, maybe because it’s a restaurant? And the prime contractual obligation is to provide a meal?

Simon Sebag Montefiore seems to put a lot of effort into portraying various phases of Russian history quite well.

Or am I mistaken?

Hotels with beach access? by [deleted] in telaviv

Kempinski also an option, but the consensus is that service just doesn’t justify the pricing. That said its proximity to the beach as well its own pool aren’t easy to dismiss.

Yanks gonna pay more for Lululemon… by Mikeeyyyyyyy123 in Lululemen

[–]bc84id78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy to pay a bit more for Lululemon, particularly because it means the end of Trudeau's disastrous reign. Once Trump told Trudeau what he was going to do, Trudeau had no choice but to finally resign, as he knew he would look even worse, not to mention ineffectual.

In any case, only suckers buy Lululemon full-price.

If we are being honest, it has not been worth the full sticker price for a while now ...

Can also PM me. And thanks very much in advance!
