OK people want a meet up on Sunday the 23rd its the day AFTER capital bocking,
Obvious place to go is London but most of us will have been there on the Saturday and we could draw attention to our selves in a bad way if we disrupt London too much 2 days in a row if theres quite alot of us which could work but we are allready havin people moan about where to go for CB etc and i cnt be arsed to organise a big plan of what to do where to go when etc etc
so im throwin out the invitation for people to put up ideas as to where we should go for the day as i dont really know anywhere around London well enough to suggest (if we get desperate we could allways invade The Hanworth Banned Turf lol)
Also this post gets the chat for the Sunday out of the main thread for CB

Maybe go outter london like crawley or oxforshire?
crawley could be good because its got alot of open places and alot of parks
DC
-
Maybe not crawley train from london to crawley is an hour...
what about one of the many parks?
DC
-
well then again dpends where in london we go to i spose on the Sat as to where we could go on sunday if we really like a certain spot on the Sat we could go there again on the Sunday but would have to be good lol im hopin sum1 who lives near London would be able to suggest sum where
-
Well Im deffo interested in this cos a/ ill never get day off for CB not so l8, in a skewl hol boohoo. and b/ cos just found out SW trains are doing an anywhere for £10 at weekends in August.
A for upsetting london, OOOO I WISH :Claugh: Police concerned about nuttas with bombs, not stilts
Dunno exactly what will happen for CB,Ill keep out as cant be there. But maybe this day just be 'different and in different place'. Think a 'theme' , what we want to do , then ask peeps who know london to suggest a place/places. Ill assume Cb will be loads of activity over a wide area in a big group, So maybe a laid back day in 1 spot where there is the oppertunity for peeps to come and go and wonder off to find bock spots meet and tell others and bock about and 'find their own day'.
Seems to me the best bock spots r to be found either close to the banks of the Thames or up above the flood plain.
So as an example, Hampstead Heath, its got 'topography' , silly games could be played ( bocking rounders match maybe?) and there is nearby Highgate to wonder off to.
Basically a lazy summer sunday , but on bocks
-
actually q, is there any chance you could bring matt up to london? could find a nice patch of grass in a park and do some laid back flips practice :D
-
nah, nice idea, but Nah. As I recall Hampstead is pretty much all 'redzone'. And anyways its 1 poor 2nd hand matt, if u lot set to work onit, it would pretty soon be an 'ex-matt'
-
:D guess it's landing on grass for us then
-
:D guess it's landing on grass for us then
or rearrange the words
guess its us on grass then landing :Cbiggrin:
-
uhmm...yes dear, that made no sense whatsoever, i sometimes wonder what goes on in that head of yours...then realise i dont want to know :P
on topic: areas along the thames are generally nice, but not in the trafalgar area as we're doing that the day before
-
Then why dont we just meet same place same time as saturday and just go from there, no need to plan just bock away :)
Anyone else going on the £10 south west train?
DC
-
make it waterloo station instead, hyde park is a little way out form the thames (i may be bocking over from waterloo for cb anyways, get a little warming up before having everyone arrive and be stressful XD)
-
yer i get of at waterloo as well, there is alot of police there though :(
DC
-
police in waterloo no trouble. when I was last there myself and 3 others 'bocked up ' in the station, sargent wondered past un had a lil chat as he past , no worries.
On the Mall Ive had 2 motocyle cops roar up stop. lift visors and smilingly watch 6 of us bounce about.
London is full of 'odd peeps', there just aint room to lock um all up :Cbiggrin:
The embankment from County hall (next to waterloo) to City hall ( next to tower bridge) prob has enuff to do for a whole day too and any1 who has been there will tell you that we would fit in pretty well ---even seem quite normal.

is that where we started walk for life cause that is good there im likin the sound of the O2 arena tho is ther plans to go there on the Sat or Sun cause outside ther wld b kool
-
Yer id like to go to the O2 think thats a plan :)
DC
-
check a map re O2, its way out east and the connecting olympic train only had its test runs last week.
Un yes embankment is where walk for life was trixster. You did just a bit of it, dont think u saw the sk8 park did u? Or the giant 3 piece suite?
-
That could be fun, bring a skateboard aswell and go skate park :P
Actually to heavy to carry round :(
DC
-
nah didnt see any of that Q maybe should go there then
-
Cant find O2 on google maps were about is it?
DC
-
my point exactly :Claugh:
-
lol, lets just see were we end up :P could be fun.
DC
-
Try looking for the Millenium Dome :Claugh: thats what it was callled
Somewhere near docklands I believe
You would be welcome to invade us here in Hanworth but it is boring as there are no crowds and no really good bocking places
We have been to Kingston, Staines, Richmond and a few other towns around here and I think the only one that would handle 50+ bockers would be Richmond by the river and even that would be tight
Still think London would be best just do different spots I mean we can't get round all the main spots in one day or O2 if we can find it :Claugh:
Jason :Hoofies2: :CGEEK:
-
I FOUND THE O2 :O
Its Greenwich in London :P
it will be abit tight though as its a car park, And way out of the way unless we go by the tube :P
DC
-
there it is,
-
so for us people in lynn,whats the plan,hitching a lift? train? and what then coming back the same day or is it a stay up there thing,and as you may tell i want in on this ah ha and the flipping thing? hmmm ill go for front flip on crash matts but thats it
also if anyone sees some 80 springs about i really think i need to upgrade :D
-
Dunno quiet whats going on yet, we probably have it sorted in a few days.
and there is loasd of 80kg PJ's in classifieds so just check there if you want 2 hand.
DC
-
The o2 is quite a trek accross London i like Q's idea of going to near the tower bridge theres some good spots ther i rember from walk for life and hes also said about other so i reckon be worth goin ther so meet there around 11, i suggest the same place we met for Walk for Life whats that park called Q
-
Hi , just back online, been away bocking 4 weekend.
Its was the 'potters somat field' ( Ill go back and edit later).
County Hall to City Hall probably means very little to most people. But if I was to say London Eye to Tower Bridge, I think peeps will know those places and feel they are going to 'understandable and not unknown territory'.
Basically you have C19th wide pavemented embankment with a few steps here and there. On top are a fair few 'scoopings' of 1960's 'neobrutalist' concrete constructions, types peeps h8 but r fab for us. 1980's ( 90's?) covered sk8 park and a few C21st additions. Chuck in loads of tourists and locals out to see and be seen, out door art, 2nd hand book fair, living statues, the 'wobbly bridge', loads of places to eat and drink, its a good day out.
County hall/London Eye are next to Waterloo station, so getting there should not be too difficult.
As for meet time, may I offer an alternative?
Lunch time! peeps turn up and just bounce around this area and bump ( hopefully not tooo literally) into each other. But then come togther at a central point at between say 12-1300? The Potters field being a good spot.
-
sounds like a fairly good idea,who is realisrtly think of going to there,from near lynn?
-
Me and tim are goin to Bexx on the 21st so we are going to be ther but not travling on the day dude as we going to CB aswell i reckon you could blag hilly into goin if he has the money
-
Ok as i made the thread ive decided to go with Q's idea all meet at the potters field at around 12ish but are left to there own thing in the mornin 12 is a fairly good time as for people drinkin the night b4 etc and will all go huntin down bock spots togetha in the aftanoon
-
