Will you be able to get a flight back from Ecuador ?

Dont worry the chicks are ugly enough to look after themselves!
Will book a hotel nearer the time, any suggestions for something central, or near where your meeting?

Kay if you are looking for something basic but cheap and cheerful, try the Ibis Hotel on Princess Street. The Brittania and the Palace Hotel are also close by and sometimes have good offers on. Try www.Laterooms.com
Once I get confirmation that I have the night off work and can get a babysitter me and hubby might book a room too as it saves waiting for taxis to get home!

We're stayed at the Ibis it was 29.00 at the weekend, rooms nice, new, clean, trendy bathrooms etc... a load us us went back after a night out, only 2 couples were booked in the barman said we could help ourselves to free cappachinos, hot chocs, and all the other posh drinks that came out of this space aged machine. When your drunk you think its great fun to play host/hostess, so we all took it in turns to make these frothy, calorie laden whipped cream drinks. We worked it out by 5.30am we'd all drank roughly 12 each (and these were large). I don't drink coffee normally but alcohol does funny things to the mind and the word NO was not in my vocabulary. I necer slept for 2 days and neither did most of the others we later found out. So the moral is if I invite you back for a coffee say NO !!!
See you all soon
mandy.

We will only have a pool if someones dog cocks its leg up the side of our box (how dare it !!!). Johns birthday is the 4th August and my 40th aaaggghhh!!!!! where did that come from is on the 16th Aug and our wedding anniversary is on the 20th. Please don't send cards as our box may not have a letter box yet.
Hope to see you both in August

Just a thought, not a kiljoy but are we sure about central manchester ?
Go out there monthly and not the greatest fan, the essence of the evening is sharing experiences and talking to others so we wouldn,t want noisy / rowdy places ? We would have to be able to hear each other ?
Hmm.....not an old fogey but u do understand ?
Ps...Ive bought some shoe polish.... so no worries...
