NO STACKING,
Might be a few small additions nearer the time depending on how warped my mind gets on my computer course next month.

£20 NAF, £25 non NAF (paypal to hudson77@live.co.uk)
Painted team for 1st place (if enough enyer, if not vouchers for Impact or Tritex etc)
Prizes for Most 2nd, 3rd and to please glow maybe 4th, TD, CAS, Sunday come back, Stunty if enough enter.

Venue Is the HIVE at RAF Lyneham (SN15 4PZ). Ok this is where it gets complicated. I will need the address of everyone who enters as i will have to send you a pass to get on camp, i'll also need car details of those drving so i can do you a car pass. If your bringing a non player over 11 i'll need their details for a pass. I'll send passes out 2 weeks before, if you lose it ii'll need to know by the day before to do a replacement. No pass and you'll have to wait for me to come sign you on.

No bar on site (bring your own beer) but we'd have access to a kitchen for tea, coffee and basic food. Plus cakes provided on both days, as well as cakes with the prizes, baked by the lovely wife.
A few B&Bs in Lyneham, plenty of accommodation in Wotton Basset 5 miles away and on a direct bus route from Swindon.
I'll add details for accomm over the next few days plus details of the bus times.

I'll be running a social poll in another thread but the options for Sat night are.
1) We can get take away in to the venue in the evening and then we can make use of the bowling alley on camp.
2) there is an idian up the road we can go to, then to 1 of the two pubs in Lyneham
3) bomb burst and everyone does their own thing
4) Take away again then jump on the bus into Swindon for the night for those that want too.

Any questions?

Cake bowl , reminds me of the team from our local Sunday club, 'the french fancies' they were painted purple and pink and whenever the opposition scored a touch down they got a french fancie. Not a good idea to reward an opponent in such a way........
Is it within easy access of a train station (I.e no more than a couple buses away) if so count me in

Bus station is less than 5 mins from train station and a direct bus to the main gate. Takes about 20-25 mins on a Sat, slightly longer on a Sun due to going a slightly longer rote for some reason.

I can give you a lift to and from the train station easily enough!

Hudson - I should be attending!

Cheers,
Spiky

It would be a case of the more cake the better i think.

Hope to have more details by the end of the week.

so not doing like nequay bowl and offering the floor then hudson?

seeing matt after sleeping on thet vodka bottle was funny

Going to have to find some sort of special cake recipe for this.
Thanks for the offer spiky, I may take you up on that.

A fair chance I might be up for this - much as the Geordies did an amazing job at the Geordie Bowl (and as such; I expect their 24 hour effort to be storming), I don't think I quite have the right stuff for an 11 game event, so the southern alternative might well suit me!

And I like cake.

Yeah Cake! Will work on getting permission as soon as I get the date.

1st post updated.
We are GO GO GO

99%, and should be 100% very soon! Can offer lifts to/from the train station as well.

I'm in

Uber error from me; at Glastonbudget this weekend. Should have checked the diary pre interest...
