Merry Christmas & have a Happy New Year Break!

First things first...MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all! Here's to a prosperous 2009!

With less than a week to go before Christmas, the festive celebrations are well and truly underway! The Christmas tunes are playing, the decorations are up, and the Mulled Wine, Mince Pies and Chocolates have already been cracked open!

If you're like me, you have already indulged far too much and are making the most of all the Christmas parties going on...Christmas hasn't even arrived yet and I am already feeling the strain - the bags under the eyes are slowly appearing as a result of far too much celebrating and partying! But, this is the only time of year we have an excuse to nonstop party, drink the whole bottle and eat our way through the whole box of chocolates and mince pies!

So, take my approach - don't worry about it, enjoy the Festive Season and completely wear yourself out by having a good time...you can deal with the consequences in the New Year!

If the hustle and bustle of Christmas takes it out of you, you can recover with a few days away thanks to hotelshop UK and their biggest ever Winter Sale - providing the perfect kick start to your New Year detox.

Whatever you fancy, hotelshop UK have many great value short breaks available at a selection of locations across the UK and Europe. With prices starting at just £17.50 per person, these prices definitely won't harm your post Christmas budget!

Why not choose a Country Retreat and enjoy a couple of nights in the country, walking and breathing in that fresh, crisp January air - perfect if you need to walk off those extra few pounds gained over Christmas! Or detox after all the indulgence of the festive period, with a Health & Beauty break - sure to provide complete rest and relaxation for your body and mind. And for those City lovers amongst you - combine some sightseeing with bargain hunting in the New Year sales at one of the bustling city destinations.

Take a look at www.hotelshopuk.com to see the great offers available from hotelshop UK that will help you recover from the festive season and get your 2009 off to the very best start!

Working Hard & Playing Hard at Hotelshop!

Here at Hotelshop, the team have been working harder than ever during this period of the credit crunch, to ensure we remain to provide many great deals and offers to our much valued customers.

To keep the team upbeat and all in the aid of a little bit of fun & money raising for charity, the team had 2 days of fun and frolics last week....

Thursday evening was full of glitz and glam at the Worcestershire premier of the new Bond Film, Quantum of Solace. The team donned their best frocks to ensure they looked the part, and helped raise a great deal of money for The Princes Trust - a really great reason to dress up and party!

Friday morning saw the arrival of the team looking not quite so glamorous! It was not the fault of a collection of hangovers from the premier...but the Hotelshop Halloween Bonanza! The team dressed up as a variety of spooky characters and the office was turned into a frightening scene worthy of a place in the spookiest of scary movies, with spiders cobwebs, creepy crawlies, decorations and much more!

The day included a number of activities including apple bobbing competition, prize giveaways and the fancy dress costume competition...won by our very own Incredible Hulk, raising an impressive total of over £90 for Acorns Children's Hospice.

Have a giggle and check out the embarrassing photographic evidence of the day on our facebook page, under the name "Vivienne Hudson" in the West Midlands network.

Monday morning was back to work as usual, but keep an eye out for more events and updates coming soon from Hotelshop.
