Cakebowl 4, sometime in June 2014

Post by Hudson »

Looking at venue options.
I have 1 in Swindon but there might be an access issue Sunday morning.
Or
Sutton Benger where Crumb is being held. Great venue, close to J17 of the M4 and and about 25 mins from J16 but depending on the numbers local accom might be an issue and public transport is not amazing for getting there, no direct bus on a Sat and no bus at all on a Sun

An idea mentioned by someone was along the lines of this for the venue in Swindon.
Start a bit earlier as in rolling dice around 8:30, play 4 games but have a BBQ and drinks at the venue after game 4. Everyone have a lie in Sunday morning and play the last 2 games Sunday afternoon with a lunch provided at the venue.


Looking at other Swindon venues still though.

Thought people?

Starting early on day 1 is a problem as most people don't want to pay for 2 nights accommodation ( I looked at making Crumb a 4 game event) however, as I don't need to get stupidly drunk playing later in he first day would be fine...

Ill look at possible venues in Malmesbury for you, there's a campsite, 3 or hotels ( probably not cheap, and several B&B's

We can chat at Crumb about what you'd like ideally, or during our league match at Daves.

Yeah, I think we need to organise this next one collectively (hence my (mostly ignored, sob) post on the Swindon forum) - chat on Saturday, I reckon.

Would be happy with 4 games on Saturday, but playing later rather than earlier start, but if two games on Sunday would prefer to leave earlier rather than start later.

Thanks for the update, good to know it can be fixed, we didn't speak about this yesterday at Crumb bowl but nobody I have spoken to seems to know how it went wrong. So I wasn't sure it could be fixed

If one more person moans about cakebowl 3 results, i'll not finish them off. I've more bloody important things to do at the moment.
Cant use the score file so doing it by hand when I have some free time.
