Time to get organised!

The list now reads Arrow

Susi
Luke
Danny
ZaphodBeeble
Phoenix
Me
ZaphodBeeble's brother
R6Stu
Luke's brother
Zimma
G
T.N.O.

Accomodation G says we can stay at his, so we should let him know if we want to stay at his the night before. He lives in Reading which isn't too far from the paintball venue. I guess those that don't know his address (inc. me) can PM him for it. Bagsie some sort of comfy bed! Razz

Transport Last time we all met at Kev's then some went in a car with all bags etc., and some of us went by bike. G is hoping to have bought another car by then but there are no guarantees. So, will anyone else be going by car? I guess if really necessary we could all do it by bike with pillions!

Directions to the paintballing for those that want to go direct.

Perhaps it would be best if we did the same as last time and all meet a G's and follow someone with a sense of direction.

Prices for the paintball packages. I think I will be going Gold this time. I'm still waiting to hear back whether you can bring your own paintballs but I doubt it.

Hassle more people to play! I have to phone tomorrow to book one more person on but it would still be better if we could get more BCFers to come along.

Have a look at last years paintball thread and hassle some of the people that showed interest then to come along! If we're staying at G's the night before then distance is no problem. Wink

I've added everyone that's going to my "friends list" (if you weren't already there), so you can get my contact details if necessary; and because I want more friends. Surprised

So is that everything? I'm looking forward to it! Very Happy Thumbs Up

I was planning on making my way up there early on Sunday morning but if everyone is meeting at G's (and if he doesn't mind) then me and my bro can meet you all there on Saturday night? I'll have to change a few things around on the Saturday so I'll need to know soon. Smile

No problems here.

I'm not actually paintballing, but I do have a car and don't mind ferrying people from G's to the venue and back again. Hopefully going to come and take some photos during the day.

There's also room on my floor/sofa if G's should get too crowded.

I'm not sure what to do.

I will get back to my flat at about 7pm after nearly 7 hours on the trains. Sad Then I have to tidy my tip of a flat as my g/f is returning after 3 weeks away on holiday. (She's also not too happy that I'll be playing when she's returning Sad ).

So should I ride to G's place late on Saturday night from my place in North London? AA says it is at least 1h from me to Reading; more like 90min once I've got lost a few times.

Or do I ride straight to the paintball on the Sunday morning? I can't really work out where it is with a routefinder as there is no postcode.

If I ride to G's the night before I will be riding past the paintball place to get to G's.

Also if I went straight there should I go round the M25 then up the M40 then down the A404 or keep going to the M4 then up the A404? If I were to aim for G's I presume I would aim for the M4.

What do you think I should do guys? Confused Question

Getting to G's is easy, it's very close to the M4 J12.

I'd say go up the night before.
