  #1  GB meet up... 16th April - Hemel Snow Centre  Posted 29/01/2010 @ 19:30
Right then peeps, I know there was a thread a while ago about 2010 meets, but that seems to have died a death (RIP).

however; it seems about time for another chance to meet your fellow GoneBoarder is in order, so I propose a 'towards the end of season session' at one of our lovely indoor slopes, followed by excessive drinking!

seeing as i'm sh*t at organising stuff, i shall be handing over those duties to somebody else (volunteers welcome), I shall however be starting The List!

So here goes...

i figure whoever actually organises the thing can sort out dates and which dome once we get an idea whos up for it! MK is best for me, preferably april some time!

I'd love to attend. I guess there should be a list drafted of whos attending and where from then working out which would be the best dome for everyone to get too?

Hemel is a really nice slope but other than the upstairs bar, not a lot around it.

Hotels are a mission away too.

EDIT - I'd much prefer to do hemel, but it's that deciding thing. At least with MK there were hotels closer and a 'spoons next door.

Not really mate, I live just down the road. There is a club right near it for people wanting to do that, and a couple of hotels within a cheap cab ride. The town isn't far down the road at all either.

Granted though, MK is a lot more convenient in comparison. Same as Tamworth really, not a great deal around it, and the hotel was a bit of a walk, but we still had some great nights there

Fair do's - Hemel it is! haha

not had a GB Jam there before.

Freestyle night is a friday at MK or Hemel so it makes no odds.

Here's a map of the area....

Hemel Snow Centre to Premier Inn Central

Also, if we decide on a date soon, the Hemel Central Premier Inn is currently doing the rooms at £29.

Sounds good to me, nothing planned then myself. Good thing about booking the Premier Inn is that you can cancel up to 13:00 the same day with no charge, which is currently £30 for a flexible booking for that date at Hemel Central Premier Inn

If it's Hemel or MK then I'm in. I'm only about 30 minutes away from Hemel so I can probably offer a spare bed or 2 to people who promise they're not axe murderers.
