    Sloppychops/Saveapenny, I think you're under-rated saints (or possibly masochistic maniacs!).

    Could I ask you to work your magic for me?

    1-Any South West or Cardiff, Bristol is best.
    2-At least three nights, five preferred, 7 is good.
    3-OH and I have booked week starting 24th March off work, so any time coming and going within that week.
    4-Any time flight
    5-2 adults
    6-Anything, but want to avoid Room Only
    7-Quiet or lively, either.
    8-Happy to go anywhere interesting, really just need to recharge brain batteries so it doesn't matter if it's not warm, could be seaside or city break, either is good.
    9-Would prefer it not to be like Weston Super Mare but abroad LOL :) Also would prefer not to be miles from anywhere ie bus trips into nearest town etc(OH makes me do all the organising us stuff, and I need a stressless break!)
    11-Max. budget for party is £300 ... would prefer to spend as little as reasonable though, cos house needs work doing on it!

    flight 2272; dep. Sun 01 Apr 11:20

    then add

    Voranova ( 3 STARS) in Palmanova SC

    if you can take the cheap flight from LTN
    this comes in under budget

  • I'm looking for a week in Amsterdam & must be there on 9th & 10th June 2007.

    1- Preferably Bristol, Birmingham, Coventry, Cardiff (or somewhere near there). Can do London for any really good deals.
    2- 6 to 7 days.
    3- I have to be in Amsterdam on the 9th & 10th June 2007 for a wedding, so dates either side of that.
    4- Night flights acceptable, but prefer daytime.
    5- 2 adults
    6- Any board, but must be an ensuite room.
    7- Near to the city centre, where all the bars & restaurants are.

    Max. budget for the whole party is £500, as thats roughly the price I've already found.

    Thanks.
