Birmingham Meet

[** Just Jools **]

So is this def 22nd? x

 

[Jim]

That's what I've assumed Jools love

 

[mommyB]

Yes it's def the 22nd

Sandy there is a premier inn on broad street, and also one near me ( oldbury). Rach has stayed there. I also have friend swho have stayed at the holiday inn that Nik has suggested and they liked it. A taxi to Brum from here is about £15, but overall possibly cheaper than the parking.

 

[Jim]

There are about 4 Holiday Inns in Birmingham I think

 

[** Just Jools **]

Will check out some prices then. x

I found this for anyone that may be interested, it's just down the road from where I stay, and where Jane lives, and apparently, it's supposed to be really nice.

Which hotel is it, Nik as the link just takes you to the Holiday Inn site? Is it the one at Oldbury?

Im really hoping to come but i am a maybe at the minute due to finances and things with hotels. I dont no this area very well at all so if someone could tell me the nearest hotel to stay in then i can have a look at prices.

 

[Redpam]

This is the link to the Holiday Inn Express hotels in Birmingham. I hope. It should give the prices for each hotel.

If Im coming for one night Ill probably drive, but its a five hour drive so I want to know Ill get parked ok. I guess if we all stayed at the same place then getting a taxi in would be ok. I dont want to be paying £15 a pop to get into town

That's good news. Sandy.

I would think that the taxi(s) would be shared so more like £4 a head which sounds better than trying to park in the centre of Birmingham.

My girls break up on the 21st so it'll be the first weekend of half term - might push the prices up slightly.

 

[mommyB]

Yes it is the 1st weekend of half term.

You coming Josaje ?

 

[marmite 330]

not sure yet jane depends on mum and getting time off work, so will prob be a last minute thing.

 

[Redpam]

Of course half term varies from area to area and is not universal.

From what I have seen, the hotel prices dont seem to be higher that weekend.

Dont think I can make it, the cost is putting me off. I will need to get a train, which is not too expensive, but then I will have to stay two nights and that is making it costly. I am looking at around £300 for the travel/accommodation without the cost of the weekend itself :-(

Is that for a Travel lodge Cheryl?
