hi there sorry im not near you. But I know what you mean Ive had definite sightings of 6 'mystery' bockers in bournemouth. Fortunatly I have met others in the area.

 Id suggest you a/ put yourself on the members map, b/ put your location on your avatar. That way peeps can look for you. Then look at the map yourself and finally do a search on your county and major towns in your area :o)  that may help

Having a quick look on the available maps:
www.frappr.com/pro-jumpers
www.frappr.com/pp

There are two people quite local to you, one girl who lives in Havershill and McTom who lives in Saffron Walden, who im sure if you conacted would be happy to meet up with you for a bock.

Hope this helps

hi Psy   try using the search  function. Plug in county and in turn the towns around you what turns up.

Also put similar info in your profile --then when others do a search ---they will find you

Hi Psy

Yes you have the Hanworth Banned Bockers nearby all two of us we meet almost every sunday in Hanworth (near Twickenham) your welcome to come down and try a pair Clives are 80's I think and I have 115's and some worn down 120's (must be like 90/100's)

We have been thinking about doing a few towns near us so may pop to Kingston soon (Staines on Saturday as I can't make sunday this week)

The bad news is we're a couple of oldies I'm 48 and clive isn't much younger but we both act like 13 yr old once we're on Bocks  :haha:

There is a girl in Kingston thinking of getting some PJ's so if she does there will be 2 of you and we're only a bus ride away so you won't be alone mate

Hey thx a lot, do u guys ever go into Walton-on-thames or weybridge? coz thats whr I live, there's quite a good public square there and a few parks. but yeah it wud rele help if i cud try some bocks out b4 i buy nd if another person is thinking of buying aswell in kingston that's an added bonus. Also I'm 16 so it's slightly harder for me to travel around seein that I dnt have a car wen u probly do. Anyways it would be a great help if i cud try out ur bocks first b4 i buy my own but i'm excited already. Psy

Hi Psy

During the summer (warm mornings) I bock round Chertsey weekends bright and early Between 7 and 8 am (the wife does the Horse early so I go bocking)

But if you live in Walton area you are very close to us so Give us a week or two and we'll try to get over to Walton the new shopping area there looked interesting about a year ago when they were building it and I seem to remember some good steps down by the river

Are you closer to Walton or Weybridge because we could do Weybridge area instead

hey, I live more in walton but am very near weybridge and the new shoppin centre has a nice area around it and there are some good parks and areas near the river so just tell me when u can come down and i can meet u at the heart (shopping centre). Once I try some I'll probably buy some and will b able to come out.

Brilliant, well thr's my road which is mostly empty and is right next to a park that is quite good, and just round the corner there's a really good private road with some steps down the river so that's probly the best place to bock.

If you just go on Google maps and type in "Manor Road, Walton-on-Thames" you'll be able to find it.

I can meet next to the nursery at the corner of the road Stonebanks but I have a football match on sunday so I won't be able to make it at 12, the earliest I'll probly be able to come is at 1:30pm Sunday 20th and I'll assure you of the time during the week.

We'll look forward to seeing you there Psy
The park sounds good we're gonna get there about 12 and have a wander round then we'll meet you in Manor rd at 1-30

If you get back early for any reason I'll Pm you my mobile number so you can give us a call

Well done today Psy
I saw Clive later and he said you did well sorry I couldn't stay any longer
(You have to be married and understand how much trouble you can get into by not being somewhere :biggrin:) when she who must be obeyed calls the clever man runs  :haha:

Hope you get some soon and your always welcome to come to meets and we will be coming to Walton again soon to try that set of steps by the river when they are dry (Get your mum on them when you get some we always need more Bockers  :thumbs:)

Happy Bocking
