Kent monthly meets - my big problem

gary tompkins · 25-01-2008, 07:45 PM

As some may know my other hobby is paintballing, which I got back into in a big way a few years ago after a long break. Anyway... I usually play monthly and the site we use runs games on the 3rd Sunday. I've just heard Holmbush have now moved games to the 1st Sunday, which obviously clashes with the UKMOC Kent meets

There are other sites we could use, but the guys in my team prefer Holmbush as we get a good deal on paint etc.. So as it stands I'll miss the majority of UKMOC meets if it kept to the 1st Sunday.

My question to all the regulars is can we shift the meet dates?

I'll close the poll in a week

Hi Gary
I have no prob with moving the meets,but we must change the kent year planner in the kent thread.

Which Sunday would you prefer in poll?

gary tompkins · 28-01-2008, 09:05 PM

Thanks for the votes so far peeps

Looks to be going in favour of last sunday at present

Just thought I'd bump it in case anyones missed it?

Not really worried as my sundays not guaranteed as I work 1 in 4. Alo as project will unfortunately take preferance over meets. I will go with the flow and Im working this sunday it seems. Doh !

Not bovvered - so not voted...

From experience, "Last Sunday of the month" occasionally ends up with people turning up a week early (on the months with 5 Sundays)

I've just checked and there's four opportunities to screw up in 2008

And i've just PM'd someone , saying I'll be there on the 1st Feb!

I guess since the poll shows an overwhelming majority to the 2nd Sunday in the month I've got an extra week to wait!

Happy New Year to everyone. I'm back on-line

And I'm really looking forward to seeing you all at the Oakdene on 2nd Sunday of February. I want ALL the gossip

Everything that's been going on!! and don't leave anything out!!!

I've really missed the bacon sarnies as well. It doesn't taste the same when you've cooked it yourself!

Yo Bob - hows things? Long time no hear (read?).

Your absence has been noticed - hope 2008 is not gonna be the 'annus horiblis' that 2007 was for you and yours.

See you at the Oakdene sometime - but maybe not the 2nd Sunday?
