I think Clive and I would be interested but only weekends and depending on work demands

But there are lots of people around london so if you give everyone lots of notice they will come

cheers for replying

weekends are ideal for me..

I travel up to Portsmouth for JJ's meets and their all great :) but it takes me two hrs on the train and after a few hrs bocking, it leaves me feeling pretty wiped out.

are people free this weekend?

As most of you know I am on a time restraint on most of my meets but there is no reason why you lot shouldn't meet earlier and go on later

To warn you Twickenham isn't the most amasing bocking area but we always seem to have fun when we go there

There is a section by the river that is flat with a few bits to jump on to or of of (If your brave and don't mind uneven ground)
A large empty car park (on Sundays)
A fair bit of pavement and some shops
Also outside the station might be good but I havn't seen it for years but I think Bio saw it last time

No DG not a dig at you  :Claugh: just a comment on the ground (You'll see what I mean when you try the bit with trees and walls by the river)

Well it is starting to sound like a meet so who can get there early as I can't make it till 12ish

Sadly I'm busy on Saturday Bio (Got Horses to clip) so I can only make it on sunday I think Clive is busy on saturday too but not sure

Waterloo is a direct line to Twickenham and takes 33 mins and by the look of it run every half hour (National rail enquires)

As Clive and I can only be there between 12 and 3 it would be better if a few can turn up to make it a longer meet

I'll stick it up on the meets section and see if we get a good response

Clive if you want to start earlier I can make my own way there as I'll have the car and parking is easy also that would mean you could stay late

hey folks, I'm in SE london. Just quickly looked thru this thread and i'm well up for any meets that are happening? just let me know where and when.

Maybe it might be a thought to set up an actual LONDON BOCKING group or something. We all know there is essex and kent etc etc. But there is nothing for us in london.

What do you all think? Plus let me know of any meets any of you may be considering. i'm more or less always up for a bock!

I sure there is already is a London group...but I don't see the problem with having more than if it results in more meets & people taking up the sport. :CGEEK:

I will aim to be in London for 11...see you guys soon (If the weather ok..touch wood)

LONDON BOCKING group

there's the hanworth banned, the london bound bockers, and the surrey springers vaguely near london, definately no need for another, oh and nothing much has been happenign springer-wise lately as i'm busy with uni, and everyone else can't be bothered to organise things...or something :P

Ohh two meets on one weekend  :Claugh:

Whos gonna make it to both  :Cbiggrin: we don't want anyone missing either  :Cbiggrin:

Can't make the Saturday one though  :Claugh: OOOPs

You are all welcome to join the Hanworth Banned and if anyone wants to organise meets on the Hanworth Banned bit feel free

We meet up most Sundays but as it's normally just three of four of us we keep it local but if more want to come we can move it nearer central london

 Griffithsm00 theres a meet sat and sunday this week  :Claugh: just to let you know

See you all Sunday
