steve.m Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I PM'd Ben on Monday evening when he originally posted that he might have a room spare (See above posts) but have had no reply. I'm after the Friday and Saturday night but have not made alternate arrangements yet as i was hoping someone may cancel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 cool, bunfight over a hotel room. Dont forget the TravelInn is about 5 minutes drive away and will have spaces. You can book in there, get a cab up to the Ibis, drink till you puke and then get the taxi back if you cannot get an Ibis room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I contacted Ben / UGP at 2.45pm about that room D ^^ but I only want the Saturday (as booked Friday direct and it's non refundable) so have said so to Ben, happy to pay £49 as that's what the Friday cost me - I know some people got the £29 / night advance rate. Not heard back from Ben yet, though if he paid £49 a night he'd no doubt rather sell on to someone that can take both nights to get his £98 back! No worries Bri, Ben mentioned it on a PM so said I'd be happy to wait if others asked beforehand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 No worries Bri, Ben mentioned it on a PM so said I'd be happy to wait if others asked beforehand You after Friday and Saturday night? Or just Saturday and for how many of you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 You after Friday and Saturday night? Or just Saturday and for how many of you? Not sure yet, most likely Sat only.. Waiting to hear from Gav, they cancelled all his bookings rather than just the one he asked for... Not good as it was for 4 rooms (Steve, Gav, Rob & Kayla and myself). Looks like there were 4 lucky people that got our rooms instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Oh what a pain in the ass this has turned into IBIS is fully booked on Sat Premier Inn only has 1 room left on Sat IBIS won't "uncancel" the rooms, so we're on a waiting list, in the mean time I've booked into the (EDIT) Premier Inn @ Billing.

tDR Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Still looking for the Saturday at Ibis - otherwise I'll need to book into wherever I can get on the Saturday. Darryl I said to Ben that's fine if he's got a taker for both nights as I'd lose my £50 for the Friday taking his booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoned Ben earlier, he was after someone to take it for both nights (understandably), so I have taken it off him. Sorry Bri... I would offer the room to you for the Sat night and stay in the other hotel but they refused to change the linen on Sat!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve.m Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 All that talk of fighting has got me scared. Managed to get one of the last rooms available at the premier inn. it's a disabled room but apparently has the biggest bed in the hotel. Hope the rest of you can get something sorted. See you there. Cheers, Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah that's the one I *nearly* booked this afternoon, glad you got it There's quite a few staying at the Wellingborough Premier Inn so should be easy to share a taxi to the IBIS for the evening with the rest of the crowd.

tDR Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Darryl I may need your sat night room at the other hotel if I can't get something at Ibis - assuming you're keeping the other one as also non refundable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tee hee, I can imagine Darryl's face as my 17-month old shouts 'Hiya!' to him at 2AM from his cot and not sure my mrs. would be too chuffed with such an arrangement either.

Ah, had a change of plans there, I booked 3 rooms at Billing, but we'll need them all for sure. Might be best to give them a call now, if you book by phone you can cancel up to 1pm on the Sat so no harm in grabbing one now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tDR Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Have booked Premier Inn Billing for the sat night for now since it can be cancelled if I get a last minute room at the Ibis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sharing it with JustGav on the Sat. So this means I now have a spare double room booked at the Premier in @ Billing for the Saturday. If anyone wants it let me know, otherwise I will cancel it tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
