    I dont know Hordon very well but i can imagine its changed alot over the years.

    I actually get the Thomas Cook quote now at £892.00 or £920 for sea view room but its now saying that because its within 48hrs of departure you need to book it over the phone.0870 750 5711.
    So it looks like it been reduced in price by £40.

    Travel vaccinations to Morocco - Typhoid and Hepatitis A are recommended but not compulsory.

    WELL DONE TRAVELMAN!!!!!!

    With your tremendous assistance, we are going to Agadir on Sunday for an unbelievable £672 for the both of us!

    Many thanks for all you have done to help us in this situation.


    Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth.
  • TravelMan is a star.
    He helped me out tremendously.
    I didn't follow up with him on suggestions (wifey being too slow to agree) but TravelMan is very patient and always remains helopful.
