Incidentally The Dickens have confirmed we've got the same area of tables & chairs reserved again so all we need to choose/book now is the evening meal......





Did you get booked mate?

Yup.

That's the right hotel/link but I paid at time of booking mate.

I'd guess that some other 'broker-type' websites allow you to pay on arrival but I don't know of any offhand.

TRUE STORY......
I've always said that my wife lost a third of her brain-capacity every time she gave birth.

.....fast forward five or so years & I read an article in a WOMEN's magazine that said it had been PROVEN that giving birth actually DOES deplete the Mothers brain cells although it's apparently impossible to ascertain to what extent.





Three kids later I'm still convinced that 'a third' was in fact an accurate estimate.

Still a maybe at the moment chaps - I'm currently job hunting, so my future is a bit uncertain right now. Saying that, I may well end up moving to London, I hear there's a Rolex boutique in need of a new salesman

Continuing my past form as hotel bargain hunter, the Hilton London Tower Bridge has a good deal (again through londontown.com) - £93 (exc. VAT) for a double or twin with breakfast. Not a bad deal at all!

Great

I'll stick to a tissot or something :)

For me it's going to be about friends and food. Beer may be an issue as i'm 17, but i'm sure i could get away with a few cheeky pints With food anyway as that's allowed
