In Reply to: booking is for January 2011 and they posted by balihopeful on Tuesday, 31. August 2010 at 18:14 Bali Time:
Thats a bit odd, I would email them again. I take it they have offered a room? But she is trying to confirm? If her email was to simply accept the booking then that may be the end of it! lol.
My other advice would be to keep the email simple, and not try to change dates or make too many enquiries, as with the language barrier they may just not understand.
Otherwise friends (who are on this forum) arrive on Sat night/ Sunday morning. I will ask them to check the forum and see if they can help with your request.
