Welcome DocH and Mrs DocH!

So we have another travel pattern (Fri-Mon) ... and why not?

Excellent! ^ Many thanks to Steady-EDI for the idea.

Confirmed for myself and my other half (both blue) - out on Fri and back on Sun.

I'm in CW but the other half can't see the point (even if I'm paying!) and insisted on being booked in WT!

I'm now confirmed into the SPG Goldener Hirsch on the Saturday night after picking up an absolutely brilliant corporate rate (making it cheaper than the price Steady-EDI has quoted for the standard Sheraton!).

Also, I said it by PM, but to make it official.... BIG THANKS to Steady-EDI for taking the time to organise this international DO!!!

ET is pricing out at a very reasonable Ł80. Is CE (if it was available) really worth another Ł100+ each? I don't think so. I'd rather spend the extra on an upgrade room.

Maybe we could arrange some hostel dorm accomodation for those on a budget? Could get the whole w/e for less than Ł100!

Having just exchanged today and being faced with a whopping Stamp Duty bill we may have to take you up on your offer.
