So Chris, you paid £20, and got a room with a telly?

Sounds worth it to be honest, at least that'd help to pass the time.

Where was this place? Can you remember?

When i phoned purefreedom they told me to find a hotel local, I found this woman and she said because its for day and not over night she would do for £20 as she could pretty much always fit someone in during the day as most people that stay there dont get in till after work so i gave her number to purefreedom as she said she would do this deal for any of there customers, Andreaw McCann may remember what the hotel was as he dropped me off and picked me up, if you have no luck ill have a look for you.

if you go right back on my posts you will see what I did in grimsby.

when round the shopping centre 3 times, arcade and also played bingo with the local ladies :) won a couple of hundred on machines I think it was. I also got a day ticket for the bus and went on a round trip of grimsby twice takes about hour ish, on the left of the arcade if looking face on the is a side street 100 yards down on the right is a cafe, they do a great brekfast ( I was speaking to someone about marketing online while eating it) but went down a treat.

as I siad I went on the bus with day ticket and slept the second time round, at the end of the day I thought I would go to KFC for a bucket of chicken as I got there (starving) I got a call that system was ready andy pick me up and waited for my chicken to be cook, was like a kid waiting for christmas presents. where is also a cinema there on the bus route should you want to watch a film. Oh nearly forgot, there is a libary there if memory serves me you get 30 mins at a time free on the internet, and yes I posted on here from there lol.

Have a great day on Friday m8 and let me know about the ro output.

I would take a couple of good books, pretend I was on Holiday and sit back and read. Preferably with a lot of chocolate nearby.

Thanks  guys.

A book and that place looks like the best option, that place only looks about a mile from PF Chris, straight down the main road through town.
