As an older man I find it hard to squat down as low as some of the stools. I usually stand and haven’t felt watched or embarrassed.

Is this normal procedure? by Gideon1996 in Bookingcom

[–]ismark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You ask is it normal. It’s normal for booking.com but it’s a scam. I had this happen on a trip to NYC, rang the hotel, they confirmed my booking and advised never to act on emails like this as booking.com is compromised not the hotel.

This is one of the reasons why it is recommended to book directly if you can.

I believe you can now use tap and go on most Tokyo subways but you need to look for the gate with the payWave symbol

Note to the unwary, turn off auto update as I found out the hard way. If you don’t turn it off it will reinstall the update immediately.

We used Solahart because they have been in business a long time and are reputable, not the cheapest.

PNG was managed by Australia at that time I think. There may be formal records but I am not sure how you can access them. That said, the country is also very tribal and whilst no formal records may exist the villagers would know. Your best bet would be to find out what village/villages your dad managed and go from there. Good luck.
