Feel the fear and do it anyway,they say http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/confused.gif

OK then, neal, cheers for the tip.

I have spoken to Ian at Whilton mill and and found him to be a Thoroughly Nice Bloke http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

The ONLY slots that he has in August are as follows

04.08.01 09:00hrs
04.08.01 18:30hrs

Now I reckon that we should do the Morning thing, yeah sure it means some ov us have to get up early but that's life.

It also means that there is still the rest of the day after the event to do more stuff http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

The cost is £165 per team with a minimum billing of 8 teams. Ian recommends 4-6 people in a team.

Working on 8 teams of 4 (32 people) the cost will be £41.25

To secure the slot I will need a deposit from each of you ugly lot to the tune of £16.50 (40%) The rest will be payable by youselves on the day. If you pull out..TOUGH http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

Have a look at the website

Just got to check with the Missus about the date, else count me and a mate 'IN' http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif. If you are short on people I might be able to round up a few people from the last session. They all seemed interested in going agin. We had a total of 13 teams on the day. I beleive the max is 16 teams! so if we are short let me know.

Do you also arrange Paint Balling ?

31 going on 13 at the moment.

Cheers

Neal

Mikey,

Only just caught up with the Karting thread - and I definitely wanna go - just need to find three mates.... hmmm... maybe oddjob, bigjob and mikeesingh (how about it lads?)- if they don't mind a (fast http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif)woman on their team! And if we're clubbing later, even better!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

Sounds like a fun day all round!

I'm off to think about team names.......

Lizzy

So Lizzy!!...

Why were you not gracing the floor of the works last saturday night then??? http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

We never saw ya!

Don't let it happen again.... we are there tomorrow! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

Cheers

Trouser

The challenge is accepted.

Count me in for a team of four from Brum.

How do I get the deposit to you ?

Just checked out the track and it looks excellent.

Also noticed they have a helipad - might give the Scooby the day off and use the Jet Ranger !!!

Hi Mikey

Count me in for a team of four mentalists . Team name 'BELLYS GOIN TA GET YA'.How do we the deposit to you ?

Cheers

Neal http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

Mikey.... you're not me mate anymore http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif

Dad says I can't play out on Saturday Mornings http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif

Hope you all have fun http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif (sniff, sniff)

......and all because he knew I would WHUP his ass!!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif.......

boo hooo......it's not faaaair!!!

TR http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gifUSER

Soz Trouser http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif but the need of the many outweigh the need of the one http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

OK then, payment of deposits http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

Thought about cheques in the post and all that and came to the conclusion that this is the year 2001 and there is a slicker way of getting your money to the venue directly.

Trouser suggested this one (he's a corporate organising GOD) Here's how it works

1) Get ya team together and name them
2) Get £16.50/£41.25 off all of them
3) E-mail me your credit card details in 2 e-mails i.e 1st mail contains first half of the number, the 2nd mail has the rest of the number plus expiry dates etc (Security purposes http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif)
4) When I have everyones details, I speak to the card holder and confirm the amount to be debited from the card and also confirm attendance
5) I give the details to the venue who then action the transaction.

This gives the team the choice to pay in full if they wish or they can pay the deposit and settle up on the day.

Obviously from a logistics point of view, it would be nice to turn up at the venue, knowing that everyone had paid, however life ain't that simple is it http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

If you are nervous about sending me ya details..TRUST ME http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif It'll be fine

OK so only one team at present

BELLYS GOIN TA GET YA http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/cool.gif

Keep them coming

MIKEY

4 man team - "Team BANZAI"

Place your bets on whether we get the most black flags ... NOW

Mikey

Neal http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif

I don't know how we got to drinking vodka, Mellow whipped out a half bottle of the stuff and we just added other drinks to it!!!!

http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/eek.gif

Has quite an effect on you, I was very dazed and http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/confused.gif later on.

In the Westie, my stomach was protesting a lot!!!!!!!! Held in by harness, there is no lee way to chunder out of the car so I bit my tongue and took deep breaths!!!!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif

The Westie was ace though http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

Michelle.

Got to agree with NM, looks like all the regulars are running scared from the new boys!!!

Come on get yer names down.

Hi Mikey

Whats the latest figures on the Karting? I can try and dig up some none scooby teams from the last session if we are short on numbers.

Come on people get your teams in !!!

And remember 'brakes are for girls !!!!'

Neal http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif

To coin a phrase i learned today." Trying to organise karting is about as easy as juggling Water" http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

To right!

OK the latest number count is........3 http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif

3 teams, 3 whole romping stomping teams, yep just 3 http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

On a positive note, i'll assume that the momentum will pick up suddenly and there will be a mad rush on the friday before the event (Please don't do that to me http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif)

1) Bellys gonna git ya
2) Team Banzai
3) Geezajob

Neal

I know I have a habit of getting very drunk and forgetting things, but I am worried?? You really shouldn't have told everyone?
