It was a training exercise! 😀

Let's hope not.... but a great view inside how they train for certain situations!

Yes because the cops will magically appear exactly when a crime is being committed like they're batman

This is training the man in black that got cuffed has got (Police) on his left sleeve.

@@Tspeedy2024 Very true did they ever catch the guy? the news has gone very quiet on these cultural enrichment episodes.;

This aint cod bro, you don’t just pull gadgets out yours ass

Lmfao, like suddenly whoop out a whole ah drone from ass🤣🤣​@@emilankermller929

Why rush? He put his side arm away and moved his rifle to his back so the suspect couldnt grab it when he moved in to cuff him At that point the threat was controlled and the biggest danger was making a sloppy mistake He was by no means dawdling, he just did everything properly bc he had the time to

That was a training exercise all the passengers wore hi viz to denote they were out of play

The mornings most likely will be busy due to commuters and the same in the evening, We would recommend lunchtime!

Hey! We did have our luggage weighed on all sectors!

We totally agree, we are actually booked to go to Cologne via Eurostar in July with a change in Brussels!

Keith, that is great to hear and so glad you found it useful was there any bits you really enjoyed of the video and anything we could improve? 😀 More videos to come so if you would be so kind if you haven’t already to subscribe! 😀

@@RonanandAlex I've just subscribed. I wonder if you need a smartphone to travel by Eurostar to Brussels and other places in Europe? I noticed that this last year, it wasn't possible to print out train tickets at home on Trainline for UK train journeys. The tickets either had to be on a smartphone or printed out at the station. This gave me some doubts, as I'd be a bit wary of trying to print out tickets at a machine at a foreign train station.

@@keithbessant No need for a smartphone, if your purchase your ticket from the "National" Provider they give you the option usually of printing, if not St Pancras at the eurostar desk can sell any tickets on the former Thalys which is now eurostar 😀

@@RonanandAlex OK many thanks for your help.

We love Bankside, for the right price it’s an amazing hotel! We have a video in September coming up of the Hilton Park Lane!

It is interesting people seem to have differing views of this hotel - we are back to Benidorm in September to a different hotel so will be able to compared

Oh thanks, we will know for next time!

Hey! That’s correct, but this was “out of season” - during the summer peak it can go for over €200 a night, so it is only fair to do a comparison at that cost. As we summed up, for the price we paid it was okay!

Thank You so much for the feedback, we have a hotel stay this weekend so will certainly take that feedback onboard!

It certainly is not the cheapest!

How much is the bus for a return journey?

@@VladMattei there isnt any busses anymore

This has to be the biggest benefit of this Hotel the view, we both found it 😍

Thanks Richard, We should have maybe said it differently it was more, just shutting there eyes, We have never come across this being an issue in a "Package" holiday hotel, as people would normally be waiting for bus transfers etc, We think they wanted people to buy a drink, but they had no lobby area really to sit and wait.

How was it?

This was included in the ticket price, it also included lounge access.

@@RonanandAlex thank you for reply

Thank You for the feedback, we are getting a DJI Pocket soon! 😀

We were in just a “Deluxe Room” - maybe it could have been the Sheriff suite… 👀 Some really good knowledge there which we were not aware of we stay in Hilton’s quite a lot, but this seems to have had a refurb but lots of shortcuts it seems. We agree some of the 5 star properties like Park Lane are 😍, have another 2 nights booked this year in a suite, so a review will follow!

Food wise we sadly did not get to partake, as the “latest” check out they could offer was 12… so skipped breakfast for an extra hour in bed!

@@RonanandAlex never skip breakfast!

@@RonanandAlex I never stayed at the Park Lane Hilton but did attend a business meeting there & had a great lunch there with Hilton London region sales & PR colleagues. The most luxurious Hilton I stayed in on holiday in the UK was the Langham Hilton (today it is no longer a Hilton) It was bought in a dilapidated state by Ladbroke & refurbished to luxury standards and not wishing to go through all the rigmarole of having the hotel opened with inexperienced staff they brought in a team of top notch veteran staff from Park Lane, the Paris Hilton, the Vienna Hilton, the Geneva Hilton, top staff from other UK Hiltons and even 'poached' staff from the Savoy & the Ritz Paris (by offering them much higher salaries) When I and family were there about 2 years after it reopened as a Hilton we were treated royally, the adjoining rooms we got had all the extra's & freebies you could possibly want & the food in the main restaurant was gourmet as the chefs & kitchen brigade were still the team recruited from the Paris Ritz & Geneva Hilton's. I hope you have a great time staying at the Park Lane Hilton & get to eat their breakfast buffet.

Thanks! Some really fascinating information regarding the Hilton Chain! We always look forward to the breakfast offered at Park Lane we are also trialling one of there “£2500” suites so we shall see!

Thank you Seb, for your kind comment, we have a lot more content coming especially from March - have a few videos to edit before then though!

Hey! We got the transfers included within the offer we got for booking direct, We believe otherwise it is 3,000thb per person!

@@RonanandAlex thankyou so much for the information

£60 a night was for the all inclusive, so we got a really good deal. Although I have seen recent pricing and would certainly be very disappointed with the hotel!

Thank You for the feedback, we contacted etihad with no response, we think the time the terminal has taken to build it would be better than it was. We also agree Heathrow is not great, but it is not new.

Thank You so much! We really enjoyed going via the Eurostar!

Hi, I think you may have mis understood or we were not clear in the video, you arrive at the pier where Anantara have a property where you wait, the staff are Anantara there, they took our passports to scan there and we think it would be great if the process was all done there. Also many hotels offer “mobile check-in”, but with this resort the preferred for us would to have had all the processes done at there “landside” property.

We would say the cheek, was more the way it was done. If they had been honest and stated “We need to change the seat”, we would have understood, both of us have previously worked for airlines so understand the operational need.

Hey, we found the food onsite to be a little pricey, at least £15 (700THB) for a main meal, we would recommend the short walk into a small town where there is some eateries, we loved Krouw Baanrow Resturant had starters, mains and a few drinks cost £5 each.
