A human story of love, pain, humour and ambition all spiced with a little scandal and intrigue, 'We Promise Not To Tell' is a dramatisation, plus a little author's licence, of forty highly successful years in and around the hotel business; much of it recorded in photographs on video and in our personal diaries.

Starting with nothing more than a little 'Street Sense' we will take you on an emotional journey as we battle with prejudice and corruption to create our fortune.

You will notice as you read on, that we rarely refer to people or hotels by name and when we do, it will almost certainly be fictitious.

The same is especially true, of the numerous high profile clients and a multitude of outrageous situations surrounding their stays at various hotels.

For obvious reasons, our own given names are not revealed either and whilst we will always observe the traditional code of confidentiality, as practiced by the best of the hospitality industry, we can not of course personally guarantee the same of the others involved!
