Old Polo Thread

oh and lots of yellow and orange drinks to match the mallets and balls

Im after one, but its a bit too expensive for me. Ive been looking at flouresent coloured / clear polycarbonate tube, smallest order ive found so far is 2m and it costs just over £50. GFs brother works at pipe centre, so ABS or something shouldnt be a problem.

what is polycarbonate? would it not shatter easier than ski poles?

A ski-pole shattering.... Ive never heared of that happeneing before.

[ame]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycarbonate[/ame] ;) stuff is used for bullet-proof glass, it should last okay i suppose, probably not as durable as ABS though. seen pics of mallets made from it using rather think tubes of it aswell. main feature is it looks awesome and is clear.

haha yeha ski poles dont, i just meant why use it when u ould just use a ski pole, but i didnt know u where using it for the mallet part rther than the shaft

I've changed my mobile back to pay as you go, so i won't be able to text everyone 3 times a week. We all know the days know anyway, and you can call me to check if we've got the numbers out.

Sorry, I wasnt very clear.

whoa re the nu peeps? nolo? i would be out but i gotta work.
I just messaged the nolo guy through facebook as i have just been emailing to his uni account and thought he might check facebook more often... bit stalkerish though

im in for 2moro, chan/mirek are you not here then?

my mate dan should be up for it again he said he enjoyed it and was good for a newbie

me, adam, hannah and mirek aren't playing tomorrow. We're getting the train to London around 8ish

from Nolo to their email list:

Hello everyone, sorry about the delay, we've been having some admin problems at the clubhouse (er, our house that is), but these have now been resolved!

So what does this mean for you, I hear you cry...

A social! Indeed, the time is now upon us. Details are on the Facebook page, which we urge you to join, here:

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=158788777270#/event.php?eid=152459504493&index=1

For those that don't have facebook, or can't be bothered to click on so humble a link, the details are briefly this-

Meet at the Union from 7:30 onwards next Tuesday (20th October), then hit a combination of the following bars: Odder, Footage, Deaf Institute, Font, Thirsty Scolar, O'Shea's, Temple, FAB, Baa Bar etc etc before arriving at SEX WITH ROBOTS at the Roadhouse, which for the uninitiated is electro stuff.

Between bars we will be 'jockeying' (at least until we are too drunk for this to work), meaning one of you must make the trip on the other's back, and then switch over for the next bar hop.

If you want to wear fancy dress, feel free. I'm going to be wearing a Sombrero and a moustache, so anything dumb like that will do. If anybody comes as a panto horse, there will have to be a prize or something, because man that is commitment!

Tally Ho!

dear lord

Fucking kill me now.... this is not going to turn out well......

From their Rapebook page:

The winter is setting in, and so alas there will now be few training sessions before the year is out.

For those of you interested in playing before next year's season,** there is a bicycle polo club that play in Platt Fields **that we should be able to get you into contact with.

Does someone want to question their commitment and accuracy of reporting...? I'm not sure i'd be able to contain myself....
