Paul Gordon and his family mentioned the all package deal and the
fact he could only manage to eat twice at the tapas bar.
The reason ,Ocean Club only have arrangements with the
Millenium for eating, this includes breakfast and
evening meals.
Part of Jane Tanners statement
we saw Kate running when we were at the Café Parisio or whatever it
was, Kate was running along, we saw Kate running along
the beach, so she’d obviously gone for a run. Actually I
think that was before, I think that’s, yeah, that’s when
we were still on the beach, so it was before we’d gone
to the café that we saw Kate running”.
4078 “Right. So it was before teatime?”
Reply “Before, yeah. So it would have probably been before five, it
would have been sort of, either before, definitely
before half past five I would have said we’d seen her,
yeah”.
4078 “And she was on her own?”
Reply “She was on her own, yeah. Erm, so, yeah, the, sorry,
Russell, Matt and Dave went up to, back up to the
complex, for want of a better word, to play tennis,
because we sort of said ‘Well’”.
4078 “You’ve got to?”
Reply “’You’ve got to because’. I think Russell and I are probably
more sort of laid back and just go with the flow a bit,
but some of the people on the holiday were quite sort of
‘Oh we’ll ask, we’ll get this’, you know, a bit like
booking the Tapas Restaurant every night, I don’t think
it would ever have crossed Russell and my mind to try
and get a block booking, but, erm, you know, I think
they sort of”.
4078 “Once somebody has you feel obliged to go along with it?”
Reply “Well, I think, yeah, I mean, and we actually did have a
conversation, it’s one of those ‘What ifs’ as well, I
can remember on the morning of the, Thursday morning by
the tennis, at the tennis, somebody in our tennis group
had tried to book the Tapas and they couldn’t get in
because it was already full. And I can remember thinking
at that point, and I just felt, you know, ‘Good’,
because they were bloomin’ awkward by booking it out.
And they were sort of saying well it’s a bit ridiculous
that they couldn’t have got in because they’d booked,
they’d tried to book in, you know, they’d been there at
nine o’clock to book in and they still couldn’t get in.
So, we did, at that point, I can remember having this
conversation was ‘Oh shall we go somewhere different’,
but it never happened, but. And Kate was, I think Kate
was there then, I can’t remember who else, but we did
actually say ‘Oh shall we, shall we go somewhere
different’. And I think almost at that point we had
considered it, but I think the problem was the kids were
so tired after having such full days, I think it was
more ‘Well it’s worked every other night’. But I know
definitely from my point of view I felt quite bad that
we were taking this, you know, this block booking every
night and it was affecting other people using it”.
4078 “What were the other options then for eating, was there a good
option close by?”
Reply “No, it was just the Millennium, well in terms of ones that
you wouldn’t have to pay extra for, it was the
Millennium, which didn’t really start until, I think it
was half seven or something, so, you know, by that stage
it was, we could have, we could have gone there, so I
think. And our kids are probably more, I don’t know,
(inaudible) our kids as they are growing up, but we tend
to drag our kids with us more, you know, they have never
really had a certain bedtime as such, I think”.
4078 “So they adapted more?”
Reply “They adapt, they’re more adaptable, yeah. But I think, I
normally would have pushed that, but I think because
Ella had had the complete, the night before, because she
was so tired, so completely lost the plot, we thought
‘She’s tired, lets just, you know, stick with it as it
is really’”.
4078 “And the holiday was all inclusive?”
Reply “Yeah”.
4078 “Does the Tapas come under that bracket?” (This is a lie)
Reply “Yeah, yeah, that’s, that’s did, yeah”. ??????????????
4078 “Right”.
Breakfast was taken each morning in the Millenium because it was
included in the price…The first night they went to the
Millenium because it was included in the price…..
The tapas does not come under this bracket, Ocean Club have no deal
with the tapas for meals there is no option, only the
Millenium. |
