    The romantic package includes suite accommodation, champagne, chocolates and breakfast. Why not spend a day shopping, sightseeing, or see a show.

    Threadneedles hotel is tucked away, in the heart of the City, opposite the Bank of England and the former London Stock Exchange. The 19th century building, originally the City Bank, has an elaborately hand painted stained-glass dome that dates back to 1856.

    The flagship property of boutique hotel group The Eton Collection, Threadneedles has 69 guest rooms and suites including the penthouse which has an outdoor balcony offering views overlooking St Pauls. Room rates start from £335 (mid-week) and weekend rates from £165 (excluding VAT and breakfast).

    Oh, B****R, this comp stuff is really tricky!

    I have been doing advanced searches all the time. I've just seen that you can do google.co.uk advanced search by setting up the domain to mse.com whatever this is. Can anyone help? I don't want to make work for you good people.

    Thanks.

    I just used part of the link to search - this bit >> homesandproperty.co.uk/offers/articles/threadneedles.html << instead of the whole URL. Maybe that's how comes I found it. I only knew to search 'cos I recognised it though and wasn't sure if it was another comp with the same prize or not.

    Thanks, Kipper. I have but obviously not properly! I'll leave out some of the URL next time.

    A big thanks to Velvet Glove for all of her hard work on the guide. I hope everyone reads it, it's so good!
