That when an air B n B is mentioned - I visualise an inflatable bed ?!

🤣🤣

this is true

context- I’ve never stayed in one and do any online shopping - never ordered Deliveroos - never used Uber or Amazon/Vinted etc

I do use internet banking though - most of my banking is admittedly internet

so I ask in all serious - is Air B n B an internet only thing?

im picturing one of those poolside lilos as we speak!! 🤣

I think that’s how it actually started off! It was supposed to be using someone’s spare couch or air-bed to sleep on, so that your host could welcome you to the destination.

I'm staying in an air bnb tonight but I don't understand the question

Ah thank you !

Goodness knows what you think VRBO is about. You must be one of the few people on the planet who has never bought anything from Amazon.

Yeah sorry I wasn’t clear

i associate them with inflatable beds - but my actual question was - are air b & bs an internet thing ?

Yes I think I am re:Amazon

Thank goodness you clarified, are airbnbs and internet thing makes perfect sense

Of course they are, as in you have to book and pay for them over the internet. They are physical properties that you stay in, usually with perfectly normal beds.

@Jumell you always have the most random threads! 😂

Funny enough I bought an air bed today...its now one of three in my house and I thought...'I have so many of these now, I should host an Air B n B' and I giggled to myself in my head for quite a while

Ah thanks that really clarifies them - I was honestly bit unsure about the beds etc !!

Well it;s an "internet thing" in that there is a website and app... you would have to book online and you couldn't book it through a travel agent in the high street - although they may be able to access the internet for you i suppose.

Have you been on the sherry?

Chance would be a fine thing re sherry !!
