    If I were you i'd ignore the £1 rooms and be one of the sensible ones who try fot the £29 rooms. you're much more likely to get one if you're in quick....

    Everyone goes for the £1 rooms!... and it's only £30 isn't it

    I'd agree with you - except that it makes no difference. Whichever you go for, the site is always impossible to access.

    I'm going to give it a go, as I got a room last time and it was lovely.

    Can anyone tell me please, with the HTML booking form link, when the time comes do you click on "promotional rates" first?

    Last time the offer was on I tried the HTML form and it didn't work as Blindman also said
    BTW
    The Html link did not work last time

    So I think this time i'm not going to bother wasting my time with the html page!

    you have to refresh the page near to 12pm though as the countdown is going by the time that your pc says it is - so if your pc clock is 2 mins slow for example, you'll be 2 mins late joining the sale!

    Which is why its a good idea to double click on the clock in the bottom right corner of your screen, go to "Internet Time" and then "Update time" to ensure its accurate.

    Most PC's do this automatically once or twice a week anyway so it shouldn't be too wrong.
