AUGUST NEWSLETTER

Thanks to Making Tax Digital, I’ve had to start using an accounting program. My invoices have been causing some confusion, so I’m trying to clarify the whole process of booking and payment. Click here for details.

Here’s a list of holidays for the rest of this year which still have spaces. Booking early is always recommended especially if you want a single occupancy room or have a favourite room in a particular hotel.

 

I’m off to the North Euston in Fleetwood from the 24th to 27th . Guests were impressed with the hotel when we were there earlier this year. The only complaint I had was that the portions were too large. I have requested smaller portions but I’m afraid there’s no arguing with Lancashire hospitality! Fleetwood itself isn’t the most salubrious of towns but is well-positioned for visiting others in the area by bus, tram or by car. Parking is free throughout the town. If you’re fond of free things, don’t miss the resident’s lounge with its free coffee machine, tea making facilities, fresh milk and biscuits or even cakes and pastries! At the end of the month, I’m returning for a 4 night holiday to Cave Castle from the 31st.

 

11th to 14th September sees me back at the Bedford Hotel, Lytham St Annes, but the 2 remaining rooms are for sharing only.

 

In October, I’m back to the North Euston in Fleetwood from the 19th to 22nd.

 

In November, I have another visit to Cave Castle from the 2nd to the 5th. I had used all my allocation, but the hotel has found me a few more rooms, so, if you’re quick, you will be able to join us. At the end of the month, I’m back at the ever popular Bedford Hotel from the 22nd to 27th for a 5 night break – great food and a chance to relax before life becomes hectic in December.

 

In December, I have 3 holidays – a 5 night holiday at the Netherwood, Grange over Sands, from the 5th to 10th and a 3 night holiday there from the 13th to 16th and my usual Twixmas break at the North Euston, Fleetwood from the 27th to 31st.

 

Next year’s holidays are already booking up. Click here for details. 

  

For details of all these holidays, click on the dates above. If you wish to be added to the waiting list for holidays on the website (www.helensbridgeholidays.co.uk) which are currently fully booked, so missing from this newsletter, just send me an email. There is no obligation. If I have a cancellation, I contact you to see if you’re still interested and available.

 

And finally…..congratulations if you have made it this far. I’m looking forward to seeing over 500 of you over the course of the year for bridge and maybe for a late session of Mexican Train Dominoes or Rummikub after bridge in the evenings. We might even invite you to join us for one of Treasure Trails’ treasure hunts.

 

Booking Procedure:

 

6.    Choose the holiday you are interested in.

7.    Contact me by email for the quickest response or telephone 01482 845595 (usually on answerphone, but if you leave your telephone number, I will be able to contact you even if I’m away) or by letter to Helen’s Bridge Holidays, 15 Hull Road, Cottingham HU16 4PN

8.    You will receive a confirmation email from me to let you know whether you will need to contact the hotel or not. Some of my hotels require a deposit or formal registration with them. Please do not contact the hotel direct unless I advise you to as I cannot guarantee you a place on the bridge holiday if you do and you may be subject to cancellation charges imposed by the hotel if there isn’t room for you.

9.    You will receive a reminder email from me about a month before the holiday is due to start.

10.                           You will receive an invoice for my bridge/hospitality fees via Clearbooks shortly before the holiday starts (currently a day before, but I’m considering sending them a week before). Please note payment is not due until the day of arrival. You may pay me by two methods:

c)    Bank transfer to business account: Helen Barr, sort code 04-00-03, account no. 36428278

d)    Cash – please put this in an envelope with your name on so I know who it’s from!
