Charlie , I think he was using that as an example of how high the charges are as The Norbreck (well known for being very basic) and usually around £35/45 per night is indeed coming up at £190 . Hilton and the Imperial is also far more than we normally pay as you well know Charlie we Yorkshire folk are not as concerned with WHAT we pay but we do like value for money so the problem is, do we book early and pay over the odds or do we leave it later and risk them filling up alltogether that could keep us Yorkshire folks awake at night .

I understand what you you mean , I can recommend the Big Blue Hotel on the Pleasure Beach , its on a Bed and Breakfast basis , you can get a room that sleeps 4 for around £100 per night , if you go online ,sometimes it pays to book as late as possible , its very good value .Myself and Mrs Caroli will be staying at Ribby Hall in Wrea Green , about 5 miles from Blackpool , you can book a 3 bedroom Bungalow there for the week-end , that sleeps up to 8 people for around £400 at this time of year , and it has everything , again look it up online .

Charlie you can`t tell a Yorkshireman how to save money , it is cheaper to leave it but will there be any decent hotels left for that particular evening which I doubt . Big Blue is a decent hotel I looked on line for that as I intend to visit for the lights with some NZ visitors price £71 but for the Summer Bash weekend it`s over £100.
Hope without planning is about as futile as waiting for a harvest without planting

THE FIRST THING TO MAKE A DREAM COME TRUE,IS TO WAKE UP
Cass I wouldn't recommend going there depends what you want to pay , but I can recommend loads of places to suit all pockets .Charlie knows .
After reading all that Me and the Mrs are thinking about hiring a deck chair, maybe 2 and one of those stripey wind break things. By the way any idea when high tide is on that weekend?

That`s a good idea as you would save on paying out the extra for the " sea view".
Charlie, I knew you would be lurking there. Mrshalifaxjohn and I have enjoyed many stays at different Travelodges and will continue to do so. They are always clean, good value and many now have updated rooms. The one next to Blookfield Rd is a fine example. Coventry Garden Travelodge is excellent and if you book early you need pay no more than £60. Unfortunately leaving Chateaux halifaxjohnfamilia tomorrow and on our way home will be stopping at three different Campaniles, they are very similar to Travelodges but for some reason they speak French. Good luck this weekend, I' looking very much forward to Batley. Moules and Frits, Mmmmmmmmm

I haven't Lurked for a few years now John and I have had a couple of bad experiences at Travelodges , I stayed at one near Drury Lane in London recently and wouldn't go back ther , I always say you only get what you pay for .Both my Daughters stayed at the Bloomfield Road Travelodge in Blackpool recently and were not that impressed either , ive booked the Caroli ladies in a Small Hotel in Blackpool in August they are going to see the show Mama Mia , and will see what they say .
Good to see I was right last night with the Fax result , I think your game against Fev at the Shay will be very important in deciding 2nd Spot , I knew you had faith in Fax ,Batley are also playing well at the moment , you never know a trip to the LSV might await you in the play-offs . .
