Welcome to our regular, not-to-be-missed round up of the latest happenings in Habbo Hotel.

ALL THE RIGHT ROOMS

We've sneakily changed the Hotel Navigator, but not so you'd notice. But I'm not the sneaky sort (honest, guv), so here's what we've done...

Guest rooms are still shown with the most popular at the top of the list (ie the ones that are jam packed with peeps are at the top). *But* there's one major difference - a room can't get to the top of the list if the room owner or someone who has been given rights by the owner is not in the room at the time.

So, what does this mean? Well, it means that my Purple Palace and wenders' Newsbox won't hang about at the top of the list all the time. So, you won't waste time popping by to see if we're in - you'll know we are if our rooms are on the list in the first place.

'CHEQUE' OUT THIS OFFER!

Fancy double Credits? If so, send in a cheque or money order by March 9, 2003 and we'll give you double what you've paid for.

We accept cheques in euros, pounds Sterling, US dollars, Canadian dollars and Australian dollars. See your Purse for details.

GUEST REPORTER: Rare trading made easy by kingcuthbert

When I first visited Habbo Hotel, the era of rare trading was just beginning, everybody marvelled at the new rare furni that had hit the hotel! Thrones and samovars were all the rage, but newer Habbos like me didn't get the chance to enjoy ione's generosity. We were at the mercy of more experienced traders, and were faced with little hope of ever owning any rares at all.

Thankfully this is no longer the case! Two weeks ago the hotel came to our rescue with the release of the 'Holiday romance'. Now even new Habbos could have their own rare furni, and watch its value increase week by week!

But don't worry if you didn't get a chance to buy a 'Holiday romance', because there is a whole section in your Catalogue dedicated to rares for all! For just 25 Credits you can buy a new super rare furni; amazing or what?!

ione says: watch out for the Rare section coming back to your Catalogue soon!

POET'S CORNER: It's gone... by God.com

You had your chance
with the Romance
Now it is out
and nothing to talk about

We will wait for the next rare
but if about Holiday Romance you care,
you can still beg or trade,
'cause on the Catalague it wont be made.

Like the Holo-Girl,
that spins like a whirl,
its time to say goodbye,
and wait for a new rare to be mine!
