Free rooms for Mary and Joseph

Travelodge are giving away a free room to couples named Mary and Joseph between 24th December and 5th January. :rotfl:

My fiance and nearly i qualify as those are our middle names but apparently couples have to be married. I emailed them to ask if they could bend the rules but i havent had a reply yet.

I would be interested to hear if anyone gets it. Email: [EMAIL="Christmas@travelodge.co.uk"]Christmas@travelodge.co.uk[/EMAIL] for bookings. You are also asked for proof of name, such as driving licence, passport, etc...

  • May be worth a trip to the register office.

    How much is it to change your name?

    In the small print it also says, that if Mary is "with child",and they are prepared to name him Jesus,then they will be upgraded to the stable block!

    Merry Christmas everyone;)

    thats a shame!
    Will they start offering free rooms on other religious dates to people called Mohammad, Allah etc (just to keep those happy before they start complaining of their rights)?
