Jamee Who is going down the night before for a bit of socialising and drinky poos, is there a main hotel you lot use??? Please list who is going the night before...
Matt Me and the wife will be going down the night before. Not sure what hotel though........Alan/Si.......what hotel did you stop in last year?
Matt Hope AOC don't mind, but they have posted details for this hotel: MILTON KEYNES EASTLAKE PARK TONGWELL ST MILTON KEYNES, MK15 0YA Hotel Reservations: 0870 400 9093 Hotel Front Desk: 44-1908-681000 Hotel Fax: 44-1908-609429 http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/ex/925 ... tid=463264
Ffoeg Don't mind at all Matt. It'll be good to just chill and kick back with like minded folk before the "stress" of the show 🙂 the more, the merrier
Sjdickso Matt i honestly can not remember the hotel, it was very good and only just been refurbished. I will see if i can find the info. There was two hotels near each other with a nice pub a couple of minutes walk away too.
ecky1972 has anybody thought about trying to get a group booking anywere as it may work out cheaper or finding out what the min amount is for a group yes i know before anybody says anything a hotel hasnt been decided on yet but remember we may need to book early due to the show

sdbutler10 i have been looking around i i think i am goin to the ibis one as its only £43 a nite for 2 and only 20odd mins away from the pod
Europa_Blue_SE1 Hey Matt it was a Holiday Inn we stayed in I'll look out all the details for it later mate... It was a lovely hotel we had a bath/shower room and two double beds in the room we were in and wow were they comfy as I said I do have all the details for it somewhere so I'll look them out and give you a pm also it wasn't that far from Santa Pod as you know anyway...
Europa_Blue_SE1 Hey Matt if I'm not mistaken this is the hotel me and Si stayed in last year mate here's a link to the actuall hotel as I said it was lovely well here's the link anyway mate http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/hi/925 ... ?ptLink=hd think we'll be staying there again this year and for everyone else too the price was not bad for 2 of us have a look you'll probably remember the entrance Matt... Oh better add for anyone with a kit on or even just a lowered car there is one hell of a BIG speed bump to get over I don't know if I'd of even tried to take my old kitted Astra over it just a warning Si will tell you guys also just how high it was... 🙁 :roll:
Europa_Blue_SE1 LOL Well eh YEA Jamee their is absolutely no chance at all your Baby would make it over that big bump thing I'm not sure if they have other parking facilities tho if that's where we're gonna be staying I'd mibbe give them a call and ask I know there was a part out the front where they might let you park overnight... So how's your suspension feeling mate I had a look at your post about it looks to have settled very nicely really finishes the look of her off you still not gonna put some Eibach dampers on bro?
Jamee Ill wait till everyone knows what they are doing then ring the hotel. The ride is a bit harsh, but acceptable, still need to trim the front arch cowlings, ill probably wait till the shocks give up before i buy coilys.
sdbutler10 i just ahd at that website for the hotel u said about and it £72 a nite i think thats a bit steep personally
Matt OK, so hotel options so far: Express By Holiday Inn : http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/ex/925 ... tid=463264 IBIS : http://www.ibishotel.com/ibis/fichehote ... otel.shtml Holiday Inn : http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/hi/925 ... ?ptLink=hd
Jamee Obviously we need somewhere that will accomadate a few of us, as we ideally want to be together so we can have a gossip and all without the need for taxi's and driving. So come on, we need a list of people who are staying overnight on the sat, once we have that, i can ring around for spaces and bookings.
Europa_Blue_SE1 Yea Jamee think we should try and get things started early and as you say not really much point on us all staying all over the place we might get a discount if there's gonna be a few of us as I said that hotel was lovely but there's absalutely no way you would get yours in or the likes of Blue SE2 etc but as I said they might have somewhere else for parking but think it's a good idea Jamee and as you said someone could phone around and try and find out the best prices and also if the parking will be suitable for low cars as if I had went down in my Silver Astra I would have been f***ed really would have had to park at the pub accross the road or something!!!
Jamee The main problem is that every other car site is starting to book hotels, and bb's now already, aoc, aon, mig, etc, so we need to start it or no places will be left.
