    Thanks all, it does seem to be that one. It doesn't seem that nice, so I 'll keep hunting.
    I need to read up on head for points about hilton points and all that. I have about £30 of boost vouchers towards a hilton stay and apparently they give an NHS workers discount , so that may be a better way forward.
    I also have no idea where we should be aiming for in London, I've managed to book Les Mis and The play that went wrong for both nights, so I guess somewhere near theatreland would be good.

    The search continues....if anyone has any pearls if wisdom, it'd be much appreciated.x

    It looks like COS are no longer giving a 1p for every receipt entered into the prize draw.

    I found the Lidl chocolates vc......I bought 4 packs separately but looks like the cheese has ran out.

    You will be amazed to hear that I made it home without opening a packet and scoffing the lot:rotfl:
