South East London meet FRIDAY 26/09/08
« on: September 24, 2008, 11:49:46 PM »
Hey/..

Have been in touch with one or two people on this board and thinking to go for a bock in Gravesend or somewhere nearby this Friday late afternoonish- perhaps from 17:00 or so.....

If more locals are interested I suppose between now and then we should discuss more exact location details; hope you can make it!

Cheers,


Kirk

Id love to come down, but how would I transport my bocks, as in carry them, if i dont have a car and would have to take the tube?

Been on tubes and trains dozens of times with bocks, just hook the knee bars over your shoulders and put the footplates on your stomach, peasy!  ;)

I'll see if I can make this meetup too!

Just get one of those large sports bags [e.g. Cricket bags] to transport your bocks; should work perfectly!

I think Toddy is [hopefully] there, plus myself- shall we say to meet Gravesend Train Station at 17:00 tomorrow?
Anyone else interested? Jelly perhaps?/. -If I recall you're from these here parts...

Much easier to stick them over your shoulders - what you gonna do with the bag while you bock? :)
I took my bocks from Southend to Portsmouth and back on the train last weekend, and theyve done numerous trips across london and the rest of the country on trains over the last few years - just expect a few odd looks from people! :)

That's my point exactly! Weird looks from people!
-A bag will conceal them; thus eliminating this! Get one with wheels then it'll be so much easier to transport them- just looks like you're off to the Airport on holiday or summat!/.....
