Who are the next five to close?
Sat, 25 Feb 2006 10:17:53 -0000
By this I mean forget the already announced round of closures. Treat that as
a done deal. Let's work out who could be next in the firing line for
closures and actually go and stay there to help stave off their closures.
What do you think?

Inept Management
24 Feb 2006 13:59:02 -0800
The business case and spin the YHA muppets are trying to deliver to our
community is deceitful.
Not only has the Matlock management forgotten what hostelling is about,
they are now trying to suggest that they can compete in the "real"
world with highly-competitive commercial backpacker hostels in big
cities.

Why?
23 Feb 2006 04:57:12 -0800
In an age where it is imperative to take into account the needs of
those who are disabled or have reduced mobility, I'm horrified to see
YHA is closing four hostels which have facilities to cater for
wheelchair users. No doubt significant investment has been made to
adapt these hostels, so why on earth are they ...

Sherpa bidding for Keld
Wed, 22 Feb 2006 23:51:00 -0000
I've heard that Sherpa (as in Sherpa Van) will be putting in a bid to
acquire Keld when it comes up for sale.
I hope it goes through - this is exactly what is needed to keep these
hostels as hostels.

Not a UK question , Mont-Dore, Sancy, Massif-Central
Tue, 21 Feb 2006 15:25:10 +0100
Hi all, bit of a long shot this, but has anyone ever stayed in this
hostel and, if so, do you have any comments, particularly with regard to
family accommodation? I had hoped to go recently but the packages in the
French school holidays didn't suit us so we rented an apartment instead.
However, outside school ho ...

Less time to hostel this year
20 Feb 2006 05:38:21 -0800
So much for wanting to spend a few days hostelling in March this year.
I was planning to stay at hostels in North Wales, but with one or two
exceptions, none appears to be open before Easter :-(
And with Easter being late April this year, most hostels are open for
only six and a half months between Easter and ...
