If you're in a car and headed for CTC, I can recommend the Express by Holiday Inn at M27 J7. It's about £55 a night if booked through Lastminute. stayed there last night. It's right by the Rose Bowl and the Hedge End retail park, so plenty of places to eat.
Anyway, just back from CTC myself. Hi to the 2 guy and 4 lovely lasses that were there with me. Keep me posted as to what happens. Hope you all got home alright!
