a problem shared is a problem halved ,but an advantage shared is no advantage at all
if a job's not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well

Have a good one, everybody. Unfortunately, I'm required to work overnight on Friday - for user test, of all things! :evil: :roll:

Yikes careful Marsha or you'll beat me there and I've got the gate key! I know you're coming from miles away so if you do find yourself there a bit early then I'd recommend having a maccy D up the road. I'll be onsite at 4pm.

Well, have some insect bits and bruises from larping last weekend (froffing, feasting, fightin and quaffing, a great way to waste time) but the back is better than it has ever been since the mishap last year (somewhere between "almost like it was never there" to "I slept crooked last night") so getting ready to rock

:happydance: :happyclap:

To the tune of "Mademoiselle from Armentières"

Napoleons army ran away, As you do
The guard stood firm for Frances Pride, As you do
They said the guard will stand and die
But we heard what their Colonel cried
It wasn't pretty I tell you.


Resistance is fertile

Well a good old bit of sweat is a great way to break in your kit, so you'll have no worries there. The woodland canopy is finally in full force and does make a difference yes. There is also a good easterly breeze forecast so that should help on the day. Don't worry about showing yerself up mate, this is a friendly event and everybody has to start somewhere, you're making the effort and joining in, that's a good start. As to the 200 Bb's that is down to you. It is impossible to police so we take your word for it that it's all you're using, the main point is that it stops it being a hosefest. If you're on an AGM MP40, 200 rounds is 4 mags full, that's the best way to think of that.
Hope this helps :good:

50+, join the gang. Like P of E said let the youngsters do the running about. The main thing with WW2 airsoft as opposed to Open day airsoft is you'll be given orders, and you're expected to follow them. That means that the "slower" members of a section provide support fire while the fitter members do the more physically taxing stuff. Don't worry about it, take it at your own pace. I'm sure you'll throughly enjoy it. See you there.
