Quick one reference to commuting

[Antman]

Some nice hotels may offer a discount if you do a block booking.

When I was in Edinburgh, I found a serviced apartment through LastMinute and booked for the week. When I was there, I asked if they could do me a decent rate, and they came back with something higher than LastMinute did. I told them it was pricier that way, and they slashed it.

I ended up in a brand new serviced apartment with kitchen, two rooms, sea views, TV, freeview, free wifi, free parking and a shuttle bus into town all day for less than the Premier Inn was charging down the road.

No French maid though?

Steady. He works on a nuclear submarine and signs himself off as 'Bash' - wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of him.

Brilliant!! haha. Big softie really. Labelled as Bash because there was originally two Ash's in our department. Little Ash and Big Ash....hence Bash stuck. :-P

Travelodge for me. Wait for the £10/night sales and book 2 or 3 months in advance.

Get the right place and it's just simpler and less stress than hotel

Bash and Lash; sounds like a good night out.

In my last contract I worked with a guy ex-forces and we got on like a house on fire (even though we were like chalk and cheese - I wouldn't last a day in the forces). He had the shiniest shoes anyone had ever seen and got some stick from some planks but he was *hit hot at his job and had a few problems dealing with slackers. It must be very hard adjusting to civvie life and we had many a chilled out pint after work which he appreciated and I enjoyed his stories from the forces and a good laugh.

All the best with your search.
