We should definitely go to one of their meetings.

Particularly anyone else who is a local resident

Are you nominating yourself?

Cheers Oliver! Did you go/know if polo got mentioned?

Absolutely, Max - you guys should go to these.

Are you nominating yourself?

Yes, i am going to attend.

Cheers Oliver! Did you go/know if polo got mentioned?

Yes, I went and mentioned polo, especially the desire for a purpose-built polo court, which the Parks Development Officer took away with him, as well as the desirability of having hard standing large enough for four courts, and possibly longer lighting hours in the summer. There may be other opportunities than just in Hackney Downs. As the recommended court size (or was it 'Worlds Standard' as inspired by American court sizes?) has got bigger (I heard 40x25m yesterday, whereas at the meeting I still said 40x20m), this may get more difficult, but we'll see.

Hey guyz, im back in town for a month and was wondering if any of you ( around 6ft tall) can lend me a polo bike in order to play some pick ups here and there ??? Promise it will be made no damage to it!
See you tomo night for some beers;)

mayeut is the next Emmet, how many tap outs do you plan to have dude?

ask Vidal, think his old polo bike is going spare....?

games this evening? I'm on a late shift so will arrive quite late in the day, but would be nice to play this week!

I wanna play tonight but I've left my mallets in Brighton, could anyone lend me a mallet for the evening?

I'm getting a mallet from MAX today so can bring my other one, it's quite long though (107cm) - let me know if you don't find anything

In for 7ish

You can use mine when I'm not playing. I am going to try to play tonight but you can still borrow it.

My old archie only needs a brake, chain and freewheel to run ... I've got a brake to put on if you can sort a wheel or freehweel.

I'm in.
