    Hope your date is still available when you need it jellyhead :)

    I'm going to book a weekend at blackpool in sept to see the lights and book for skegness direct for the summer as it looks a better deal booking direct out of school hol's.

    We'd pay about £70 for blackpool w/end and current price on haven is over £200!

    Hopefully, when we get there the caravan is ok or we'd maybe upgrade..

    Hi scottie's mum. I don't have my own code yet (well, I have booked mine and my parents, but am trying to get a code for my sister to come with us) but have put a maximum bid of £30.07 on one on ebay that ends in half an hour :eek::rotfl:

    I think the way you're doing it is great, works out best for everyone at this late stage :T

    Lab-dab we did that, blackpool in 2007 just before the children went back to school. There were fireworks on friday night too and everyone had a great time :D

    I don't have a letter?? My Nan sent me the codes but nothing else?

    You need the letter to get the reference no/booking code. There is a very long list on here of people waiting to get a booking code if others don't need it.

    If you have paper tokens you could try booking that way - but you won't have much control over dates/places. But it does mean that next time the offer is on, you stand a chance of getting a priority code sent directly to you.
