Hot Pot in the hotel room

Well we started our journey on Thursday but decided to call in on our venue booked for next Month in Souillac and take some measurements and to stay the night. We booked a hotel on line for the night.
Believe it or not we don't make heaps of money from the events so we try to save where we can.
Also for the month of March we were going to try and make a Speed dating evening for all of those lonely hearts out there.
After visiting the Golf club we found our hotel and did some shopping. We had taken our hotpot dish and planned to put the slow cooker on all night in the hotel.
We went to see Sandra and Brian who own the Chapeau Melon in Souillac they were very keen to host the speed dating evening so we sat in their lovely restaurant and had a few drinks and chatted about the evening.
We realised when leaving that we didn't have a cork screw to open the bottle of red wine for the hot pot so we asked Brian to open it for us.
We made our way back to the hotel got the meat out of the car together with the veggies and our opened bottled of wine.
The room was so small but did have a table and electric socket close by. We put our meat in together with the wine and then we realised that we didn't have a knife to cut the the Onion, Carrots and Garlic. Mel got the Garlic put it on the floor and stamped on it. " Their you go she said crushed garlic." I said what about the carrots with that she bit off both ends of the carrots through them away and put the centres in whole the onions she peeled the outer layer and put them in whole as well. The hot Pot went on and we went to sleep.
We both woke up at about 6am finding it hard to breath the smell of the slow cooking beef in red wine had dried our throats out. We got up pronto and loaded the car and left the room with a nasty smell in it.
We were only two hours from Toulouse so we headed off at about 8am hoping to Catch the Toulouse market and to see a bit of the city.
