    In Firefox I was in at spot on 12pm, but it wasn't functioning properly in that browser, very clumsy interface and website - Hoxton sort it out - very disappointing.

    Tried with IE, but site is crashing obviously due to traffic. It won't load, just reporting errors.

    Congrats to those who bagged a cheap room!
  • My perserverance paid off!!! I got one, I got one!!

    Hope a lot of you guys did too x
