Been to the first though, or somewhere close. Didn't that view from my room though. In fact I don't remember anything a view from my room, though I think it was the same hotel. But I was there on "cheap" conference rates in the off season.
Are you dictating your responses to ThomasThomas? You seem to have a few words missing. This is a more serious problem than typos. Someone must be giving your writing a really good shaking.
