Works for me
So therefore it works for me too

Me too.

Benner · **Reply #61 on:** October 15, 2010, 02:23:39 PM

Bit closer to Dunc I believe as well.

How long would the drive be for you Gareth?

Looks groovy.... no restrictions which stop us from coming

Sparky415 · **Reply #63 on:** October 15, 2010, 06:28:35 PM

I have a suggestion but it might be a bit far for people

I found out today it might be possible to set up camp at a club near to me
I have not approached anyone officially as I thought I will ask you lot first

They have an archery club so there should not be any problems using bows or setting up a target for throwing axes and knives

There is a wooded area at one side
I'm sure we would be allowed a fire
Its a very quiet site with out many passers by
There's a social club on site so there is beer

I can make a few inquiries next week if there's any interest

Its not a million miles away from Bicester

I couldn't get ~~multimap~~ Bloody Bing to link straight to Bicester
so click on the link and type bicester in the space at the top

This place seems ideal to me for playing with knives and stuff but I understand if its too far
If any of the regulars want more details of the place PM me

Benner · **Reply #65 on:** October 15, 2010, 06:50:23 PM

I'm game

nuphoria · **Reply #66 on:** October 15, 2010, 07:42:01 PM

Stick it in google maps Tony, or just tell us the postcode

Having targets for throwing things at might be a lot of fun!

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #67 on:** October 15, 2010, 09:56:31 PM

Sound's good Tony

Screwtape · **Reply #68 on:** October 16, 2010, 12:18:00 PM

Location looks good to me, dates as ever I'm up in the air with and will have to see what work throws up nearer the time.

Gareth · **Reply #69 on:** October 17, 2010, 07:24:33 PM

This looks fine to me as well. TBH as long as site's aren't too far from a motorway it's all the same to me. Google reckons this is about 6 hours from me, so perfectly reasonable. Early start, a couple of stops and no getting lost and I'd be down at a respectable time in the afternoon.

As ever I know a few nice spots in Scotland if everyone's interested?

No?

Screwtape · **Reply #70 on:** October 18, 2010, 12:54:01 AM

actually I'd love a trip to Scotland, but practically

Yup, there's the rub. $:-\$

Neil · **Reply #72 on:** October 18, 2010, 10:33:14 AM

If my passport hadn't expired I'd be up for Scotland too

As it is, I'm good with either of the current options. Tony's look like its sensible and Gareth's would only involve an hours travel so I'm easy

Sparky415 · **Reply #73 on:** October 18, 2010, 10:38:19 AM

I will go and have a chat with the Guy tomorrow tonight if I can and get some details

It might all go pear shaped

Benner · **Reply #74 on:** October 18, 2010, 12:00:59 PM

Worth a go.

Sounds like a good option if it works out. If not - no worries.

Sparky415 · **Reply #76 on:** October 19, 2010, 09:57:50 PM

Had a chat today with one of the guys running the place and it sounds like it will be OK
I will have to meet someone from the main club that uses the area to see when we can fit in around their diary

Are you all happy for me to carry on arranging things down here in Bucks? Dunc, Gareth etc?

I should be able to pick people up from the Chiltern line for any train travelers

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #77 on:** October 19, 2010, 10:00:07 PM

I'm up for it mate

Benner · **Reply #78 on:** October 19, 2010, 10:07:00 PM

Nice one.

Neil · **Reply #79 on:** October 19, 2010, 11:32:48 PM

As always, I'm easy

Sparky415 · **Reply #80 on:** October 19, 2010, 11:40:23 PM

I will make some more inquiries as the weeks go by when you

me

Gareth · **Reply #81 on:** October 19, 2010, 11:44:17 PM

Sounds fine to me Tony.

Makes no sense

the Marylebone is connected to the Haddenham..?.should that read Hambone?

Sparky415 · **Reply #87 on:** October 20, 2010, 09:36:06 PM

You get on the Chiltern line at Marylebone (London end)

But if your up Birmingham way you don't want to go anywhere near Marylebone

nuphoria · **Reply #88 on:** October 20, 2010, 11:16:46 PM

If you're in Birmingham you don't want to go anywhere near Birmingham either frankly

Thanks for looking in to this one Tony, looks like a fine idea

Flashback · **Reply #89 on:** November 09, 2010, 10:30:36 AM

Dudes and dudesses,

I know I don't post a lot (so busy at work you would not believe it.....long story but VERY busy)

If you need it, my site is always available.....

Nick
