    Thank you, I did think it was probably as cheap as it gets for half board!

    Just wanted to say that @MATTR5 is such a treasure - I'd already found a few super cheap deals myself, including one with TUI that included an extra TUI discount for a child, but Matt stayed late on a Saturday night to get me another discount on top of the very cheap deal - such a friendly, helpful guy. Thanks Matt!
