Can't we book now? via E-mail

I thought that the were lanes booked up weeks in advance and that's why we needed to book sooner rather than later.

I seem to remember there being some bizarre arrangement about bookings, whereby emailing them didn't actually lead to a reservation, and that the easiest thing in the end was to turn up 2 or 3 hours before we wanted to play and book a couple of lanes. This was on a Friday night and we were fine.

EDIT: On Saturday you can only book for the afternoons up til 4, from then on you have to turn up and book. Friday is different, apparently.

Would you mind giving them a call to check how it works?

I clearly need to pay more attention to the forums. I'm around for that weekend, so count me in for whatever's happening.

I've fired off an E-mail this afternoon, we will see if they get back.

I've said about 18:00, 2 lanes. If we have too many people for two lanes I don't mind just drinking beer and heckling.
You really don't need to see me bowling a sub 100 score and sulking.

OK I just got this E-mail back

Quote:
Hi Matt,

For 12 people, you need 2 lanes. The cost of this is £70 for an hour.
I have booked you in for 6-7pm on 26.06.09.
We will need a £50 deposit to confirm the booking for you. We will need this deposit by 4pm on 29.05.09.
You will be able to pay the remaining £20 on arrival.
We will not call you to confirm.

If there's anything else i can help you with, please get in touch.

kind regards,
Maria
Is this OK?
They didn't give me any indication of how to pay the £50 deposit so I will have to ask them.

Since there's 12 of us, the games are going to be pretty slow going with everyone getting a turn. Would it be too much to book for 2 hours? Would mean we can pace ourselves & not have to rush.

Currently will be £5.80 each for 1 hour, 2 would be £11.60 (spot that complex mental arithmetic ).

Cheers Matt for looking into that for us!

Same here, I'm pretty fine with just sitting back, watching and drinking And if I bowl, can we use the bumpers, too???
