Shooting people with supersoakers in Quarries

If you are reading this, then you are welcome to come along.

The annual Winspit super-soaker fight will take place on Saturday 15th August.

Prepare to get soaked, laugh a lot, enjoy the fantastic view over the sea, and have a great time with fellow fans.

Meet at Wareham station at 12 noon; bring a pack lunch, a dry t-shirt to change into, sturdy footwear (for running around caves in), a super-soaker (painting it black is useful, though not essential), a container to carry water, and a towel!

Lifts can be provided from the station.  Just let me, Judith Proctor,(Judith@waveney.org) know you are coming and I'll pair up people with cars with people needing a lift.  You can also phone my mobile  - 07759 784901

Remember that it takes longer to drive into Wareham than you might think - there's one road that gets seriously overloaded on sunny summer days and you need to allow at least half an hour extra for the journey.

The odds are high that we'll meet up somewhere afterwards for gossip, gaming, whatever.  Crash space can be found for people coming from outside the local area if they want to stay overnight.

Alas I shall be hitting boys with "sticks & spells" in Derby this weekend - aka Larping.

I will attempt to book a toddler-wrangler and come along this year I think - either the husband, or the grandparents if hubby fancies getting wet too :)

Thanks! Pencilled in.

I didn't manage to make it last year though.

Spotted a couple of weeks ago that this clashes with Caption, and I think I need to bone up on my Small Press a bit more before Easter :( Sorry!

Alas, we will be in Canada. But thank you!

Noted in my diary, although there's a lot on already that weekend.

Do you know if you're coming tomorrow? If so, what method of transport? I'm just checking who needs a lift.

[identity profile] pinkdormouse.livejournal.com 2009-08-14 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately not. I could have sworn I'd let you know elsewhere on your LJ, but if not, I'm very sorry for the late notice.

Hope you have fun tomorrow!

That's the only weekend I'm home in August - which means I shall be doing some panic research for my summer assignment :(

Sounds like a brilliant event though, have fun xxx

I may be interested, but some time around then I'm planning on spending a week surfing at Croyde Bay, so I may be otherwise occupied :-)

There again, supersoakers... wetsuit... hmm, would that be cheating...?!

Wetsuit? Definitely cheating. Besides, you'd not want to carry it all the way from the car park to the coast. (and you'd probably get too hot)

I've only just heard about this & would love to be there. Unfortunately I've recently developed rheumatoid arthritis so I won't be able to come this year but I'd love to come next year. It sounds like really good fun! :)
