Re: Waterbowl 2022 - Feb 19/20 Stockport 117/120

Post by Angry Hobbit »

Weather is looking a bit dodgy tomorrow. Trains to Stockport are running thin on the ground.
If they are all cancelled, or I get blown into OZ (or the North Sea) then I'm afraid it looks like a no show as there are no trains early enough to get me there in time for the first games.
Still, praying to Nuffle that things work out .

Hopefully see you there.

Ah man that's rough, it looks Devon is one of the areas bearing the brunt :/ I hope you are safe down there.

@angryhobbit - yeah not much that can be done about that, but keeping fingers crossed. Just let me know.

If anyone is not able to get here due to the weather just ping me a message on 07921197206

Re: Covid
The only legal requirement is that you don’t come into the venue if you’ve got Covid symptoms, or have tested positive.

During the tourney, please continue to test each day if you have access to LFTs (I know they’ve become harder to get hold of) and feel free to wear a mask if you’re comfortable doing so.

We would advise that players don’t share dice and if you’re not comfortable having people touch your minis please let them know at the start of each of your matches.

To help reduce crowding around the admin desk we’ll be setting up WhatsApp groups for:
- Ask The Ref
- Announcements (we’ll still be using the microphone & screens too ofc)
- Results
I’ll get the links to you later today

For those arriving tonight and looking to meet up The Jolly Sailor in Davenport (218 Bramhall Lane, Davenport, SK3 8TE) is quite nice and does good food too. It’s just down the road from EG.

If you’re staying in Stockport then the Market Square & Produce Hall have some decent options.

I’ll be running errands so will see people tomorrow morning.

If you need to get hold of me before then you can get me on 07921197206

Covid? What's Covid? According to 1 of my patients its just a bad cold! They were lucky I didn't have my block dice with me as I might have rolled double POW on them! I have some lat lows so will bring some for myself and my roomie. What's the deal with masks?

And Nuffle says no! :pissed:
Between leaving home and getting to the station (20 mins) they cancelled all trains. My first foray north of Birmingham ends with a thud.

Maybe my punishment for not taking flings. :lol:

Have fun everyone and see you next year?

I’ve got the following down as NAF renewals/sign-ups (+ CollosusThunder + MonkeyRouge) Dan has processed them all and will bring gifts this weekend.

We’ll sort at the weekend if he comes. Liam Cox was also due to sign up but I’ve not heard from him yet.

If you think you’ve paid for NAF and aren’t on the list let me know.
