I've just had notification that the new Travelodge at the Army & Navy Roundabout (a few minutes walk from the ERO) will be opening on 11 December. Det ails of the hotel can be found at _http://www.travelodge.co.uk/search_and_book/hotel_overview.php?hotel_id=384_ (http://www.travelodge.co.uk/search_and_book/hotel_overview.php?hotel_id=384) If you book (and pay) online early, you can get a room for as little as GBP9.00 (non-refundable) on some dates - look on the 'Saver' tab. And to clarify, I have no connection with the organisation, but post this in case it may be of interest to someone who needs accommodation while researching their family history DaveD I raise money for charity just by searching the web! www.everyclick.com is an internet search engine with a big difference - it donates half its revenues to charity, please support them too!
