333.0. "help contact friend." by SNO78C::MORAN (Who needs the beach anyway ???) Wed May 17 1989 04:22

    I am URGENTLY trying to contact a couple travelling to Denmark from
    Stockholm.
    
    I have the name a hotel in Copenhagen and West Germany.  What I
    cannot find out from Australia is whether or not either of these
    hotels has a fax (facsimile machine) and their numbers.
    
    Can anyone PLEASE help me get a message to one of these hotels before 
    Friday, 19 May.

    If you are just trying to contact the hotel, telephone, but tell
    the telephone operator that you require language assistance.  The
    phone company (well, AT&T, anyway) has translators available.

    Thanks.   Yes I have called the Hotel and left a message.  Unfortunatly
    the telephone company in Australia is a government body.  "Language
    assistance" - your joking :^).   
    
    Although I was able to leave a message (I think), the hotel operator
    spoke some English, I wasn't able to establish whether or not they
    had a fac. machine.
    
    The reason for all of this fuss by-the-way was because last week
    I proposed to their daughter.  We  wanted them to hear about
    it from me first - not from some distant relative or read about
    it in the newspaper.  
    I know it is a bit far fetched from this notes file but I was running
    out of ideas and these common interest notes have many benefits.

    Regards   Vince

Call them again (the hotel).  They are bound to have English speaking people
available even if the operator doesn't do so well.

    All is well!
    
    They called home last night from Leningrad.  Although it was a terrible
    line. I managed to do the deed, and asked them for their blessing
    for wedding their daughter.
    
    Now I have sent a fax (letter) to a friend in London who will have
    it delivered to their hotel along with a bottle of bubbly.  It probably
    doesn't hurt to do a bit of PR with your pending in-laws.
    		Thanks  Vince
