Can't play today - mostly full of baby bugs - will come over to snap some images before the sun goes down...

reckon you could film some stuff on my d60? It's pretty easy to use.

i cant, got a well urban guestlist for a hipsterparty tonight

don't think i can do tonight.. got stuff to get done at home.. in for Thurs tho....

cant do tonight sorry

thursday it is then

I'm in for Thursday

Shall i bring a long board of wood so that we can experiment making a "corner"/"dug-out" *inside *the court next to the door ?

i may bring two brooms in exchange for beer

Brooms may be more important than the wood come Thursday.... I guess we go to the NCP if the court is iced??

No, were not making an area in the court for standing in.

I think it would be good to put 2ft pieces in the corners to deflect the ball though

i dunno a standing area whould work but it would have to be more then just some wood so the chances of it happening is low, the court is lopsided in its placement anyway if you follow the netball court lines.
corner bumpers is a good idea though.

why do we need a standing area in the court?, it will reduce the play area and involve carrying bits of wood around. Can you not stand, wait for it.... outside the court! shock!

to see a bit better whats going on duhhhh ste

id rather look through the fence that be in the way of the game

we don't need one, i just meant if there was somethign good, like a long bench we can sit on, and the like then its good,
obv that won't happen so there no point worrying about it, i just meant unless its a awesome super stand up sit down area then its not worth it

Is anyone going to be going past PH today and can check whether it's gonna be playable at all tonight...?

I'm sure it';; be playable, might just need some clearing, as someone said, as noone will ahve been on it the snwo won't have been compactred

yeh im down whatever, it will be fun, maybe source a couple of for sale signs on the way for clearing

London are talking about using really cheap Cat Litter as grit... might be worth trying... can maybe try the town pound shops...

Oh, i've got a works conference thing all day until about 7pm!! so i'm not goonna get there til 7.30 earliest.. if you guys get there and decide it's unplayable can somebody let me know so i don't turn up to find an empty icy court...

Thx...

What about raiding a grit bin in the strfeet?

Bill was sayin to avoid salt as it fucks up/corrodes chainrings etc... but yeah i guess if there's one to hand..

Polo!
