To ALL NEW people asking advice about holidays in this section - you are posting your questions in the wrong section and therefore won't get many replies.

This is SUB section and the title of this section is called REPORT BARGAINS, DEALS & SPECIAL OFFERS. This is so everyone can see the bargains as soon as they are highlighted by someone and they are not lost in the mix.

If you wish to ask advice, when you first click on Overseas Holidays and Travel Planning you will see the SUB sections showing near the top of the page, then about 4 or 5 sections down (not very far down at all) you will see the main section for Overseas Holidays - there are STICKY threads for the first few posts then underneath that you will see people's questions. This is the section you need to create a new thread in. I hope this helps - you should get more replies if you start again in the correct place.

You will also see at the bottom of people's posts or answers there is a button called 'Thanks'. To save you having to fill up the forum writing 'thank you' to everyone, you can hit the 'Thanks' button at the bottom of each post and it tells the person you want to thank, that you have thanked them. LOL! Does that make sense?! ;)

so, erm, thanks! :)

    Well said Ponkle. Will you ask a Board Guide to sticky it? If they won't I reckon one of us should come and bump it every day, perhaps then the message will get through!

    The BG's seem to have forgotten that this board exists ...




    I've been told not to be so negative, so I'm adding a **big hugs**! ;)
    Gone ... or have I?

    I can't understand why there is a sudden influx of new people asking holiday/transport questions in the REPORT BARGAINS, DEALS & SPECIAL OFFERS section....

    They will get far greater replies in the main Overseas holiday section (read first post on this thread if you don't know where it is). Martin might as well shut down the REPORT BARGAINS, DEALS & SPECIAL OFFERS section soon, as they will all be lost in the mix of holiday questions.

    I think people see the words bargain and deals and ignore the rest. I never understood why this board was introduced anyway. Believe it or not they actually wanted to make it the main travel board, with the general questions one a sub board. ;)
