Berserker · 7 Jan 2006 at 16:15

No problem with that, but I should let it be known that I'd like to be in a room with people I already know (see above for reason)

B&B done. "Are you from the Overclockers Internet Forum?" LOL

You're just trying to cause chaos and confusion. I can tell.

Anyone fancy sharing a room?

Arg, if this wasn't slap bang in the middle of my revision/exam period, I'd probably come.

I was helping via MSN

The problem is that the hotel are claiming that they don't have prices yet but the website seems to let you go all the way through to booking rooms.

Unfortunately you can only book a maximum of 4 people into a room on a website and thats with a double bed and two singles or bunks.

Now the price for these rooms is blinking cheap BUT a) we don't know if they include entry to the park (they do include breaky and the water park) and b) we don't know if they will honour the prices (although I don't think they have much choice once they accept payment).

They are offering 2 double rooms with 2 extra beds for £120 each atm!

So its all a bit up in the air.

At the moment we are erring on the side of caution as I suspect these are Winter rates and the booking system hasn't been updated properly, especially as when I asked on the phone they said they were still waiting for next years rates

Wasn't criticising - I noticed the AT website was still full of winter rate stuff.

We normally advise against bringing friends dude. People tend to shy away, and stick with the person they know, rather than get involved

He's from the forums

Just doesnt post that often!

Mic and I will be there - holiday is already booked from work

Will phone the B&B tomorrow to book a double (will post once its done)

We will need to share a room for Splash Landings otherwise we won't be able to afford it and we'd prefer to be sharing with people we've met before - no offence meant to anyone

Edit: I'm gonna have to go and buy a swimsuit now :eek:

Piggymon · 7 Jan 2006 at 17:23

Wahay !!!

Splash Landings was such a laugh last year .. will be even better this year

Takhisis · 7 Jan 2006 at 17:34

I'll take your word for it - me and a lack of clothing always inspires panic in me (unless there is alcohol involved)

Piggymon · 7 Jan 2006 at 17:41

You'll be fine

.. I gotta get myself into shape by then as well

Berserker · 7 Jan 2006 at 17:42

Ooh, good point, haven't booked time off from work.

Can't anyway, our holiday system has crashed.
