    Life is what happens to you when you're busy making other plans

  • I totally agree del,

    I dont bother here much anymore for the same reason, shame but it waste too much time.

    This is supposed to be for people who are ready to book found what t hey think is t he best price and for us to hopefully beat it. Doesn't really seem to work.
    Hi

    Can I just make a suggestion that if anyone is not going to book your holiday through one of the agents on here then dont post

    We spend alot of time searching companys and beating the quotes only to hear nothing, I have sent various people over the last few days quotes which are anything from 100 - 500 pounds cheaper???????

    Sorry to moan but its seems pointless to be working the site if no one wants to confirm things with us

    Thanks
