Xscape night/day out- Mid March

[northwind]

Right, so we talked about this, but never got round to setting a date. February seems to be more or less up the spout, so I'm thinking, weekends of March the 17th or 24th might be best? Just a quick show of hands here if people are interested, and if they have a preferred date (or other date) please!

Food, drink, bowling, crazy golf, football things, climbing, other stuff, and a massive indoor ski slope with real snow :) It's ace, like a big playpark for grownups. It's the ski slope that raises it to genius, but it's still a good day out without it. It'll be ace 8)

[kitkat]

ooh can i come please. either of those dates suit as both are after payday.

[northwind]

No.

Wellllll... alright.

[-Ralph-]

i'm in

[-Ralph-]

i'm in - either date

[Tiger 55]

I'm mad for it.

Can't make either date :cry:

Next time or perish in the attempt.

[northwind]

Can bump it Tiger, that's the whole point of this post :)

[Kilted Ginger]

I'm in. Are we talking bikes or train to allow moderate consumption of alcohol :roll:

[northwind]

I'll probably ride through, because it takes me about 3 hours to get there by public transport :roll:

[jim@55]

yep im in as well :wink: northy -you can park your bike at mine(in my humongous garage :wink: )and have a drink at the centre ,sleep on the couch and go home the next day 8) sorted ,smiles all round .xscape is about 3mile from mine ,6quid in a cab (ishould know taxi driver and all that)btw this extends to all in the same position ,entry fee is a pack of bacon ill get the rol :lol: ls

[northwind]

Ooh, sounds like a plan that... Good man!

[on yer bike]

The later date is better for me, or any of the 2 weeks after. but not a definite yet.

jim@55: is this so you can show off your new camp-fire guitar skills? :)
I may take you up on that offer if you're sure its ok for all us Easties to crash on your couch
(how big is this couch you speak of? hehe)

[jim@55]

camp-fire guitar skills?-aye right theres 2 couches in the living room and a huge back garden for tents if required ,but get your name in for a front row seat(in the living room in front of the fire)or pitch a tent in the hut next to your bike :love: :roll: but whatever ,just avoid this :driving: and do this :drink: guitar lessons ,,now theres a thought.....hmmmm.......

[on yer bike]

err.. you may want to give those lessons a miss, especially from me..
There's a reason I was trying to get rid of mine, and the problem realy wasn't with the guitar. It looks amazing hanging on the wall, until they ask me to play, anyone else, it sounds perfect.. me it sounds like a bat outta hell! tried getting lessons, that didn't help, never mind giving them! :shock:

I'll let you know closer to the time If I need to crash, thanks for the offer

[northwind]

TENTS! Good lord...

Heh, I can add to the crap guitarring :) Quite good at fixing them, never did get round to learning to play. Though I have a repertoire of Carter USM songs that I can do ;)

[on yer bike]

Rock On I Say!

[husky03]

Wish I could head over and put some names to faces but I'm early shift the first week and the week after that is the mrs due date so defo no chance with that one-maybe next time then :cry: .

husky :)

[on yer bike]

husky03: Come along on the ice-cream run on 25th feb if you can, its a good laugh, and a great way to meet the ppl off the forum :)

[husky03]

I'm gonna try-problem is due to my line of work I get very few week-ends off-i'm on annual leave at the moment and i start back on the 21st feb so might be a bit tight (again)-cheers anyway,but I'm defo gonna put in an appearance sometime.

husky :)

[Tiger 55]

Current voting is 100% for the 31st, so that's settled then! Thanks for adding the extra date Northy.

Having lolled on Jim's couch while Mrs Jim brought me tea and biscuits I can highly recommend the @55 front room but I think the community spirit will be better out in the garden camp. Oh, my tent is "two season" - anybody know what the hell that means?

Husky - how many kids you got? They're almost always late...

And On Yer is going to play Bat Out Of Hell! This is going to be great!

[husky03]

Checked for the 31st but i'm on late shift so thats another I can't make :cry: -next weekend off will be 21st april so if theres something on then and the sun turns black,and pigs(ahem)fly maybe see what happens.
Got a two year old and next ones due soon-and not forgetting the dogs aswell :lol: .

husky :)

[northwind]

Tarnation, should have had an "any" option :(

[Quedos]

Can I come please!!! I'm might try and drag Indie and Big Al along,- Big Al's been last week. Bags me climbing -I've got the gear!!! Not skiing But if you are going its £13 for 10mins of tubing but it needs to booked at the weekend. :lol:

[northwind]

Get them told, they're all coming :)

[Cronos]

Tarnation, should have had an "any" option :(

...and as if by magic. :wink:

[Quedos]

So whats happening then?!?!?!?!?!

[northwind]

The people have spoken, 31st it is. Not an awful lot of people did the poll, mind... I'll start another thread to promote it properly, once I find out a tad more about pricing.

[on yer bike]

I'm out, went and got my job back at the paintballing, re-opening in 3 weeks, sorry guys

[mart]

how cool is that ill have just moved to glasgow on the 24th. is there room for 1 more

[northwind]

We have room for about another 20 :D

[-Ralph-]

Can't make 31st, sorry, on a stag do that weekend. Have fun!!

[Quedos]

Northy!!!! Do you want me to have a look at pricing - can get it done fairly soon at work. What do we wnat to do? Shall I get prices for everything?

[Prawn]

Def up for this but can only make the 24th, working the other dates :(

[northwind]

OK, quick question for the 31sts- how many can do the 24th? Cos we're getting people say they can't do the 31st, and it's otherwise close...

Sorry Abby, missed your message... The price details are all here:

http://www.xscape.co.uk/snow/braehead/

So you're off the hook :)

[-Ralph-]

Can do 24th

[jim@55]

yep 24th is ok for me as well:smt023

[Tiger 55]

Can't make the 24th myself :(

[Quedos]

24th is out for me and Garry - Ice Climbing that day:shock:

Sorry!

Don't worry about missing the message Northy - I'll forgive you:kiss: besides I'm snowed under at the moment and totally forgot about it:colors:

[Kilted Ginger]

Can't do the 24th, Down in Gala

[kitkat]

i can do 24th but then I voted for that

[northwind]

Right den, if the 24th would have brought more people I'd have said we should change it to then- we've not got a huge turnout after all- but it's not working out like that so let's call it 31st for solid shall we? I'll start another thread.
