Velocita Rosso Posted December 16, 2017 Author Share Posted December 16, 2017 Quite a number of feasible entrants already .....half of 2017`s field ........and a probable one third of the hopeful field for 2018.Hotels being investigated as we speak, in the Northern regions of fine old EnglandThe second night hotel being sought for finishing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yorkshire_spam Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 We might just be able to do this one! Not in the Spitfire and possibly with the kids dragged along. 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Quoted from Velocita Rosso Such confidence.... Absolutely.....I have 100% confidence in the car 😎(apart from its habit of fracturing alternator brackets, but that too may well have been solved now. And has never caused anything more than a 15 minute delay, Italy, Belgium and err, Brighton)BTW I will be accompanied by Gill Senior. And if the Saturday night could be a tasty hotel that would be fantastic. After all, it will be our 28th anniversary Must say, those years are whizzing past.

Velocita Rosso Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 FEASIBLE ENTRANTS OPINIONS PLEASEWe are getting closer on the finite detail of the Border Raiders event and it is with this in mind we invite your input.To ensure we get the overnight accommodation, on the first night, arranged ...we need to reserve a number of rooms to enable the `field` being billeted in the same hotel.We have located a hotel that would be good for us, but they require a deposit to hold all the rooms.....if we do not reserve a full hotel then it would mean entrants finding their own accommodation for that night and would obviously not be in a socialising groupA feasible interest in the event has realised 14 entrants already and another 10 would fill that hotelWe invite your comments please to enable us to go forward.A `finish`point will be advertised shortly ,with recommended hotels being advertised for those wishing to stay overnight and `visit the sights`.

yorkshire_spam Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 With at least 4 possibly 5 of us on the event we'd be looking for 2 rooms if possible Mike. How soon does the hotel need the deposit to secure the rooms? It's a tricky situation. How close to the event would it be possible to release any un-booked rooms back to the hotel to allow non-event bookings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velocita Rosso Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 Still in the initial negotiations with the hotel re reservations/timings etc and may be able to confirm later today/tomorrow on finite detail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velocita Rosso Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 Hopefully most of the arranged event detail should be in the March mag ready for entering on line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixer6 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 If the hotel is going to reserve almost all of it’s rooms in August it seems entirely reasonable to ask for a deposit, I await further instructions.Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Simple question, spurred on by Gill.We assume we start/finish in the same place. Do we need to think about booking rooms for Friday (from the above it seems that is a block booking?) or Sunday evening? "We" liketo get all this stuff sorted early, where as "I" tend to leave it too late Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we need to think about booking rooms for Friday (from the above it seems that is a block booking?) or Sunday evening? "We" liketo get all this stuff sorted early, where as "I" tend to leave it too late We have a dilemma, in the need to reserve a hotel for the Saturday night and therefor everyone showing interest on this topic/thread is being Pm`d/mailed to consider sending a deposit for the Saturday night in the hotel`way up north`....nice for matrimonial stuff Once the selected Saturday night hotel has been booked.....two further hotels will be advised as the over spills, and these are within walking distance for us all to socialiseAll this pre arranging will avoid everyone being `bomb burst` in different locations and keeping us all togetherWe will start as usual at the OST, to be booked by individuals, Saturday night `way up North`as a block booking and finish in another location yet to be revealed....but very shortly....plenty of time. This end location will be in a more tourist area for overnight lodgers to view the sites......instead of inside a pub! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
