I've just mnaged to book a hotel for us to stay in York when I/we take D-d to university. Meep! Almost every hotel was already booked solid - I don't know if this is simply becuase it is back to uni. weekend, or whether there is something else happening that weekend, but with a list of '77 hotels in York' I typed in my dates, and it reduced to 5; 1 of which was very expensive, and two more than five miles out!
So I went to my trusty Travel Inn site (now Premier Travel Inn) - and booked one of the last available rooms in the York City Centre one for the long weekend - whew!
This means that S2C can still come if he wants to, or not if he decides to stay home with the cat, as the room has a double, and a pull out single for the night or two that D-d will be there rather than in hall.
Good job I didn't leave it whilst he decided whether to come, and she found out whether she will be in a hall that is available on the Saturday, or one where you can't move in until Sunday - or we'd have been looking for a stable!
