We were fighting each other for the phone I can tell you, the entire team had a quick vote and we rapidly realised we all wanted to go. Luckily there was no limit on the tickets you could buy, so we booked one.
"This offer must have been buried on page 2 of the google search results", said fictional reporter Jane MeQuickly, adding "I've searched hundreds of times for cheap PG holidays, but never thought to press the button."
We awaited eagerly for our flight tickets, the schedule and the enevitable cute little hand-drawn map from the airport to the swimming pool in our newly found pilots paradise.
Imagine our shock 3 weeks later when we opened the shiny envelope and discovered the following; a return coach ticket to Victoria Bus Station in London and a one-day Super-Saver underground ticket, a voucher for a medium McDonalds meal, a reservation in the 'SeaView Suite' of a 2-star London hotel, and wait for it... a single front row ticket to see a 1970's Rock Band who we thought split up 15 years ago.
We couldn't understand what had gone wrong. Put simply, we were confused. The covering letter was talking about some Eagles soaring and a Final Sell-out "Californian hotel at the end of the road" tour. If you can shed some light on what we did wrong we'd be most grateful.
Meanwhile, we've asked for our money back and we'll let you know how we get on.
