Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:57pm

Julie always points out the similarity to the Moody Blues as well... not sure if that was on purpose.

I guess "resort" is pretty close, but not necessarily a fancy upscale place.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:01pm
pacific standard simon:

Americans don't like doing holidays as a group, unless it's upscale, or a bus tour. I think the British thing for holiday camps is closely related to their tradition of pub singing.
  11:03pm
john:

That's pretty much it, Evan. Butlins is not an upscale place at all, but a chain of resorts specifically for working class families to get away for a week or two and have their days and nights filled with activities, starting at a time when nobody else was really doing that. I think it's gone a little further upmarket in this age of cheap flights abroad; the chain is certainly smaller than it used to be.

"One potential seller is the Cubs, whom Giants scout Pat Burrell has watched all week. They have a utilityman who can play second base and center field, Emilio Bonifacio.
