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

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  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

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'

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  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.

Try looking for the Millenium Dome  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  Jason
