Ultra Pro Deck Protectors:
As some of you will now know, I am a huge fan of the collectable card game, (CCG), Magic the Gathering, (MTG). Basically MTG is a game that requires you to build a ?deck? of 60 cards to play against other people?s decks. The cards can be very expensive but they are easily damaged by shuffling and of course the dreaded ?hand grease?.

Advantages: Central location Disadvantages: Rude receptionist
available were coming cheap. As an arch capitalist who is a firm believer in the supply and demand philosophy I had no real objections to being charged over and above the normal rates though I was still against paying unnecessarily over the odds for just one night. The Britannia, for instance, a three star hotel close to Piccadilly in central Manchester where I had stayed on my previous visit, wanted around £100 for the night. A nice hotel the Britannia may be but cheap it certainly is not. I instructed Expedia to find me an available hotel rated three stars and above without specifying any specifics such as air conditioning and swimming facilities. It came up, amongst others, with the Mitre Hotel.
