TRAVEL advisers from Going Places in Oxford Street and Corporation Street, Bolton, joined others from around the country at an exclusive party at Oasis Lakeside Holiday Village near Penrith.

Directors of Going Places hosted a special party for 200 (out of 4,500) top achievers in sales and customer service.

A spokesman said it was an outstanding achievement by the Bolton team that five travel advisers from one town should be invited.

They were given time before the party to enjoy facilities which ranged from bowling and laser clay pigeon shooting to mountain biking and sailing.

The Bolton team chose to enjoy the flumes, wave pools and rapids in the World of Water, an indoor sub-tropical pool area.

Adam Fitzsimmons, aged 23, travel adviser at the Corporation Street shop, said: "We all had a really great party.

"Unfortunately the men were out-numbered about 12 to one by the women, but that's one of the advantages of working in the travel industry."
