well jason and i will stay untill about 5or 6 wether being ok

I may well come to this one plus Sammy, There are quite a few spots that could be good around the town, Broad street and Queen Victoria st are pedestrianised. Also around the Butter market and Forbury Gardens are worth a look. I dont suppose they will allow bocking in the Oracle. Round by the Hexagon may be good too.

I'll also let my brother in law know he may well be up for it as he lives in Reading.

so what time are we starting? and can it be somewhere newr the station, if some kind soul can't swing by and grab me on the way that is

rawrk · « **Reply #28 on:** January 28, 2010, 10:48:10 AM »

I can come, but I still don't have my stilts. So I'll just be watching.

And yeah, I'd be at the railway station too, if we could start off there?

I'll be there with Rach. Cheers Q

GIZMOQUEEN · « **Reply #30 on:** January 28, 2010, 06:22:15 PM »

Just to clarify

The meet is starting at 1 pm

We're all meeting at Reading train station ( not reading west station) map and postcode included in my previous posts..

and does anyone have a spare pair of stilts rawrk could borrow?

PM reading Parkour team (SilentMotion) for advise on bock spots. There a skate park near the by and it had free parking available on Sundays -just waiting to find out the postcode

bobw · « **Reply #31 on:** January 28, 2010, 08:27:02 PM »

just spoken to my Brother in Law, he's coming and he's going to ask his mate aswell.

Biohazard · « **Reply #36 on:** January 29, 2010, 09:52:51 PM »

As long as it's not wet I'm fine!

rawrk · « **Reply #37 on:** January 30, 2010, 12:27:14 PM »

I can make it, at work now though so will reply properly when i get home.

asbestospiping · « **Reply #38 on:** January 30, 2010, 03:57:08 PM »

Looking forward to it, should be a great one. I have a spare set of bocks if any one want to use them tomorrow, I dont have any spare pads tho, so if some one can help, that would be great.

GIZMOQUEEN · « **Reply #39 on:** January 30, 2010, 06:40:19 PM »

Rob- I can bring some spare pads, no worries

darfgarf · « **Reply #40 on:** January 30, 2010, 07:27:57 PM »

i'm out, replacement bus services, shortest journey would be 1.5 hours, and total hell in traffic XD

so yeah another time maybe

rawrk · « **Reply #41 on:** January 30, 2010, 08:34:01 PM »

So how will I know who is who? I might end up wandering around like an idiot for a few hours

I will see you guys at one tomorrow then, thanks to everyone (if anyone) who are bringing spare stilts/pads, etc.
