Please note the minimum numbers for the above booking are 15 bedrooms for 1 night. If these numbers are not met and/or the event is cancelled the charges will be derived from £150 room hire per day (total £300) which I will have to pay.

Accommodation: Holiday Inn Cambridge is currently holding the following block of rooms for your use:



02/11/2007 03/11/2007
Run of House 15 15

Bedrooms can be booked by the individual using the booking code provided (KPE). Guests will be required to provide credit card details at the time of booking to guarantee their reservation. Any bedrooms not taken by 2nd October (1 month prior) will be released. Once booked, if a bedroom is then cancelled two weeks or less prior to the event, 100% cancellation will apply.

Rate Information: The Holiday Inn Cambridge is pleased to offer the following special rates for your meeting:


Package Detail Rate pppn
Day Delegate Package (room hire; 3 course lunch; 3 x tea & coffee; service) £0
Residential Delegate Package (room hire; 3 course lunch; 3 x tea & coffee; service; English breakfast; overnight accommodation; set dinner) £85


So very simply it is by at least 15 of us stopping at the Hotel at least 1 night at £85 per person per night, that we have obtained the Darwin Suite meeting room free of charge and all meals found also free of charge which I reckoned to be a very good deal. On the basis of where you all live and the probable need for many of you to stop over 1 night I think that we should be OK.


Payment Method: Payment on Departure by the Individual
All rates are inclusive of VAT at the prevailing rate which is currently <17.5%> and is subject to change without notice.
Cancellation by the Customer
Should you cancel your booking a charge must be made equivalent to any loss suffered by the hotel. Costs incurred for any equipment hired by the hotel on your behalf will be added to any cancellation fee.

Roger, can you clarify a couple of points please :

1. What does "Existing 30 Inc. in Package" mean ?

2. Quote "Any bedrooms not taken by 2nd October (1 month prior) will be released"
Does this mean that having already booked a room, that it has to be confirmed by 2nd October ?

Hi Bill
That's the trouble when you copy things from one media to another...
'Existing 30 in package' only means that I expected a maximum of 30 people to attend...as it is we've managed 20 so far.
2nd October is the date whereby unless I ask for the remaining unbooked bedrooms out of the original 30 to be held for longer, they will be released back into the 'market' for anyone else coming to Cambridge to be able to book. These people having absolutely nothing to do with our convention.
Rog
p.s. So - no you don't have to reconfirm your booking. Bill...all is well.

It's all about code, html, javascripts etc.

If you i.e. press the "reply with quote"
button you'll see the nessesary code.

Happy Playing

Thank you Gunnar Jonny.

I will try that one day.

I am sure I'll shock myself if I ever manage to get my music up on here.

Yours musically
