Re: Booked - cancelled - rebooked - same dates...once I had

My final response was a take it or leave it at the rate offered as I was not prepared to offer any other discount that early early in the season, try and book later for a further discount if the dates are still available .

As you can see several offers include a "free" laptop.

Due to sexual discrimination law, the job cannot demand that the post is filled by a woman. Under sexual discrimination law, unless Wookey Hole can provide "documentary proof that the original witch was female it can't issue a gender-specific job description". What a load of Warlocks :sho...
