  • Ours go back the 3rd too, thats why I needed 24th Aug, but I dont think I've got a brill park, but I'm not that bothered, it's only a base because the sun WILL be shining!
  • i think people trying to book in the morning will be very disappointed, and even more so if you have to post it off and wait for nothing to come back

    i had perran sands for 24th of august, but because we being there before i thought i would try elsewhere in the country, and i also thought that the kids always went back on he first monday in september i thought the 31st would be ok, oh well, if they due back on the the thursday, i will phone in and say the kids have been sick on that morning which then automatically rulls them out of school thursday, and friday :T, Dave

    The fact I've managed to get NOTHING for 24th August despite getting on the site so early suggests that they had very little for that date in the first place. I've now tried loads even places I really don't want to go :-( Oh well, we are going May half term so I guess I can't complain too much. Have given up.
