Are you sure about those room upgrades? I seem to remember BASSA claiming it was agreed in the early noughties, yet since that date they've been unable to produce a signed agreement to that effect or even minutes of a meeting in which it was agreed. It's now been kicked into touch by means of Simon Telling-Smith saying "Yeah yeah, we'll give you that" and Hotel Contracts saying "You're not authorised to do that so we're just going to ignore it".
