Thanks so much for all your advice guys.

We are all booked up now it cost 2100 pounds in the end. (Sorry no pound sign on this spannish keyboard.) Thanks to my very kind granny who has paid for it all and even thrown in 500 pound spending money.

Wasn´t that nice of her.

Anyway we will be getting there Thursday the 5th of June leaving Thursday the 12th.

So if anyone wants to meet up that weekend just let me know where and when.

Oh we are staying at Lethbridge Lodge anybody know what I should expect is it OK?

I so can´t wait not long now.

Thanks again guys for the recomendations.

Hi Ali

The LEthbridge Lodge is a really nice hotel - bet you couldnt get in at the other hotels as it is Lethbridge Soccer Tournament that weekend you arrive and I know a couple of the hotels are already booke up and have been for a couple of months too.

If you need anything let us know via a PM or anything and we will all try and help you out

Thanks Gaynor I wondered why so many of the hotels were all booked for that weekend.

I guess we were lucky to get a room as now when I look there is nothing left any where.

That was close.

It may be too late for your flight but don't forget Money Saving Expert has a flight checker on its website - you just input your dates and airport and it searches all airlines for the lowest prices

Thanks for that but we are all booked now so thats one less stress, just organising all the people we have to see and things we want to check out whilst we are there.

So thanks again everyone for all your tips.
