I'm off to look for hotel rooms...

...is that sad?

[HRH Gold Joinee Sheli]

no!

and OH MY! that is SOOOO close to my birthday!

like.. 2 days after!

[G J Katie]

I can't wait!

It gets better every year as I get to know more people. I loves it!

I am going to buy a special planning hat in the near future.




P.S. IT WILL BE SHELIS BIRTHDAY AND THEREFORE AN EXCUSE TO HAVE EVEN MORE FUN :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

[GJ Michelle P]

I am SO there.
*crosses fingers*

[HRH Gold Joinee Sheli]

You'd BETTER be Patz!

[Pud]

I intend to be there from thurday to sunday this time, maybe even monday.

*goes to fill in holiday leave form*

[Captain K]

I can't decide. I could book a hotel now and be mega sensible - and comfortable - or I could ask to stay with Mark, Westy, and Zena again. Where I had the funniest night I've had in years, but had to sleep with Warren.

*dilemma*

[Rubidium Joinee Tigger]

I'm SO there.

Might even sort a hotel this year...I mean next year...I mean, oh, whatever...big emphasis on the *might* tho

It is, unfortunatley, highly likley that myself, westy and zena will no longer living togeather by then as they are going to by a house and leave me out in the cold on my own.

oooh Easter is before my Birthday next year! Doesn't do that very often!

I shall Sticky Note myself a reminder to ensure I have three vacation (or sick *cough*) days available for March. Due to my anniversary date when I start accumulation again and what I should have left over from end of Nov...this could work!

I do not want an angry Sheli!

Looking forward to seeing you in a month, chickie. x

[sjdwh]

Ooh, Easter before my birthday too! Exciting stuff! I'll be in for the full weekend experience, I feel

[Gold Joinee Spaca-Sweeney(GA)]

Already booked off the weekend!

Andy

[Bamboo Joinee Angel]

Ok, I,ve checked all possibilities and nobody in my family or friends has any birthdays or anniversarys on that date so I'm gonna say "third time lucky" and do my best to be there

[Mr Phil]

I shall be booking into the Premier Travel Inn. Because its location is the best.

But not yet, because I don't know exactly what I'll be doing this time next year. So I don't know which days I'll be up for.

[Joinee Varwell]

Hmm the travelodge (that's the one the majority go for, yes?) is at £55 per night! How does that work? Thought these places were meant to be cheap in advance? Any suggestions?

They do cheep nights every so often, it's a waiting and keep checking game. Plus a family room is the same price as other rooms which means 3 people can share the cost.

Right thanks, I'll keep my pies eeled.

[DG Joinee NEMESIS]

DAMN IT DAMN IT!!!!!!

i MAY be skiing!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

though i also may not be............given Skiing is movable :-)

in which case - YEY

also - THE BRITTANIA hotel at £30odd quid for a double WILL sleep three - if one doesn't mind a couch and a sleeping bag and being "sneaky" :-)

[HJCotW Spacemonkey]

The rooms in the Brittania are lovely as well, and unlike the Travelodge, they give you ginger nuts.

If you go somewhere else, you'll just have to take Phil Cooke (bum bum!)

[SJ Del (The Train Man)]

You got a couch in The Britannia?
Gits

[Platinum Joinee West]

yes, everyone who is relying on westybingmark space, go book a hotel room now! The Westy and I will in all likelihood be living in a flat about 20 minutes out of the city centre by then.
it will be small.

:/

[Captain K]

Right, the Britannia is ALREADY fully booked for the Saturday.

I'm gonna book one at the Travelodge (or Crown Plaza or equivalent) nowish.

Anybody want to sign up to share with me and cut the cost?

[G J Katie]

*looks forward to having a floor to offer*

Hmm. Ur. Well...NO! Ski-ing can move. GGF cannot. You will clearly be coming to GGF. How could you even consider *not*? Eh? /pushy you-must-come-to-GGF-next-year rant

I reckon the Brit is not actually full, they just haven't released the rooms for those dates yet.

I wouldn't want to rely on the possibility. They have a chart/diagram, and it shows availability of a varying mix of room types for Thursday, Friday, and Sunday, but specifically not any for the Saturday.

Perhaps they have a conference on.

EDIT - the chart thing seems to be a bit nuts. It still shows no availability but it's now showing a random choice of date in it's little "title" bar above the data. Still, I'm thinking it'd not hurt to book now. Roomies?

Tempted to say "aye", but also wondering about holding out for cheaper rooms at the Travelodge. What do folk reckon? Too much of a risk?

[Captain K]

It's only money!

I don't snore. Apparently I mumble. It destroyed my career as a spy, giving away top tips to all those Russian beauties...

[Mrs Sweeney & Alice]

Crowne Plaza all the way for me...I likes me luxury

EDIT: Looking at prices, I might be tempted to change my mind

This is true, but I will be spending a lot of it on travelling in the coming twelve months, so would like to be relatively careful!

For some reason, I don't remember you snoring at all last weekend.

However, I definitely have heard you snore in the past, so don't anybody be mislead by the above statement...

He snores. Fact. To the extent that it woke me up and I had to prod him to get him to stop, then get to sleep in the short window before he started again. In fairness, it was likely bunged-up-nose related, but still...

Oh, and I'd be up for room sharing if you're still looking for "sharies" K

[HRH Gold Joinee Sheli]

[Joinee Meek]

Woop! I do believe I will be room sharing! Who would like to share a room?! I am only small and don't take up too much room. I don't think I snore. Although I did hug Heather randomly in the night! Whether this is an advantage or sharing with me I am not sure...

[HRH Gold Joinee Sheli]

Me me me!

I wanna share with Meek!

But yay, roomie! Shall we find ourselves a chaperone (since family rooms are the same price as doubles at the mo)?

But yeah! Chaperone! Come one, come all, come CHAPERONE US!

[K - do you really think anyone would even *consider* trying to chaperone us?! I'm me and you're you - I wouldn't attempt it with a barge pole...]

How big a room are we talking? I was going to book as soon as travel lodge prices come down but I would love to share a room with Shelley and Meek and hopefully Amanda if shes in?

[HRH Gold Joinee Sheli]

that would be the BEST room!
