@ Aidan - I think Quentins actually trying to stick up for you young guns here 

@ Quentin - I think Aidan was only joking on the younger bockers only meet  

The issue with the Bocking Booze cruise (B.B.C) & under 18's has already been discussed and the reasonings & debate can be found here: http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=1297.45

There's a for / against debate, both of which raise valid points, however thanks for Sprog & the rest of you that are organising, there is an alternative trip to Paris that is also allowing Under 18's to be involved as well.

I know how strongly you feel about this one Quentin, but Carma feels just as strongly so for the sake of peace, please can we let it be...

In the future, I promise any meet that restricts anyone, will be looked into throughly before it is publicised on the forum, however I will be letting the B.B.C stay as it's well into the planning stage now and a lot of people are interested.

Peace has been restored

k naz and i wasnt saying the BBC trip should be stopped anyone going on that trip should enjoy there day/night out

and to set record Age discrimination law applies to every employer and worker in Great Britain. As an employer, you need to understand how it affects your organisation and what you need to do to meet your legal obligations

Bocking is a great leveler young/old,  boys/girls ( people who can spell/those who carnt  ) . WE'ER bockers !
Any meet that say's sorry but X people can't join then we should all ask Y 

Y, why can't X come ?

i think a modicum of understanding is needed from both sides of the argument.
the b.b.c is a special interest meet where the bockers are looking to get drunk, go to a berlsque(sp?) club and do some adult thing's, nobody wants to miss out to make sure younger members are still enjoying themselfs doing something else supervised.
Some may say thats selfish, why?
these people are spending over £200 each  to go on this trip, so you can understand they wanna do it their way.
on the subject of younger meets, i agree you should be able to organise something that in the same way would be verry good fun and very interesting for you guys, if you could find a reason that older members were not welcome im sure they would understand, the b.b.c involves alcohol, travel to a foregin land and the potential to break yourself, im just not so sure you can think up valid reasons for your agrument.
yes it isnt the most p.c. meet, but you'll get that in life, somethings just aint fair.
how about you organise your younger bockers meet, play the bigger men and say everyones welcome to come mc donalds or where ever you young'uns hang out these days.

Well said Nero, However if you Young Guns do exclude us oldies we will sit on you all 
Only Kidding

I think Naz is right on this one, For the sake of peace everyone needs to move on!

[Carma]

Lol, I am simply not PC. LMFAO, I never will be HAHAHA! But I completely agree with Aidan, however, I am currently trying to think up ways to have more 'minor' friendly meets.

One thing I have one big question mark over is how to reassure the parents that the event/group is properly marshalled.

Thanks to Aidan arising this point I am going to be investigating something related to the PLI cover I intend to get for the IB's. Which will incorporate a letter I can send to the parents making them aware of the precautions and safety proceedures I have in place to make it more of a child safe and friendly event. Example being that the Police Station is only a minute away, the fact that they are aware we are there on that day, and having insurance.

I am not sure if this will help matters but I am most certainly going to investigate it.
