Hey guys, two quick things.
I won't be at polo for at least a week and am spread quite thin atm between Bristol and Brighton. We need to keep the tempo up for the tournament organisation because slipping behind now could scupper things.
We need to start thinking about subdividing the courts, this means measuring and working out quantities of wood. Also liaising with Manchester to see if we can do something clever about handing the wood onto them when we're done or asking the Brighton timber project if they can take it otherwise.
The logistics are tricky because we have no storage, either we need to hire a large van which the wood can sit in before and after or find a space somewhere.
We also need to think about setup time. We currently have a booking from 8.30am on the Saturday and any more time will cost us, could we work out a way which means we assemble all the components beside the courts on the Friday and try to get the courts up between 8.30-10.30 for an 11am start?
I propose the creation of a 'court logistics' subgroup, probably consisting of me, street juice and anyone else who's interested.
Also if anyone fancies meeting me at the Foundry tomorrow around 8.30pm tomorrow to celebrate my birthday, that would be nice.
