Should have results of an email I sent by Tues.
I just sent one to about 10 hotels saying we want to book 6+ rooms and put them all on the "To" line

[TeenaG]

Oh clever.... subtle as a brick...but clever!

Ramada Encore Oranmore :
I had a look into the availability and we would have a limited amount of bedrooms left on the 7th and 8th May therefore I would strongly suggest if you were interested in booking those rooms to confirm those quickly with us.
The best rate we could offer you would be €89.00 Bed and Breakfast / Room based on two people sharing either a twin or a double.

[galwaytt]

Fair enough Steve we will let you away with it this time.

Anyway, i probaly won't be allowed go anywhere for the next 5 years after the ring.

That's OK Ivan, I'll carry the torch for the Real Car Club
