Hello all! I’m excited to announce the first meet of 2017, which will be the traditional Guildford Spectrum/Airhop trip. I understand it’s very late notice, and due to this there will be a limited selection of potential dates. The provisional date is set as Saturday 21st January, but as per usual you can vote for another date in the poll. The plan for the day with rough times is as follows: 12:30 - Meet at Airhop by this time for the briefing before the 1 hour session starts at 13:00 14:30 - Have a snack/lunch at Guildford Spectrum (Choices between Wimpy, Freedom Cafe, The View Bar and Strikes Diner) 15:00 - Ice skating session (finishing at 16:30) 17:30 - Bowling session 20:00 - Group meal (restaurant to be voted on!) Pricing for the individual events is as follows: Airhop - £12 with non-slip socks and £10 without Ice Skating - £6.10 + £2.10 skate hire (£8.20 total) Bowling - £5.90 for a single session. To confirm your attendance: Link to book AirHop for 13:00 is here https://bookings.airhoptrampolinepark.com/JumpBookings/BookSession.aspx Ice Skating tickets go on sale 2 weeks before the date, I will post a reminder on this date but they will need to be booked yourselves here https://spectrumonline.freedom-leisure.co.uk/esro/en-GB/categories/ice skating/2 Bowling will be pay on the day, I will be booking lanes. Please send me a PM saying what activities you will be doing Regarding the meal in the evening, I will be booking a table for this a week in advance of the date. As this is a very short notice trip, voting for the date and restaurant will be closing on the 1st January 2017. As soon as the dates have been chosen, I will be posting up links to the booking sites for the activities. The Guildford meets previously have all been great days out, and I’m sure this won’t be any different. As always anyone is welcome to these events, no matter wether it's your first or hundredth meet. I will be handing my mobile number out/creating a Facebook chat 1 week in advance of the chosen date for planning. If anyone has any concerns or questions at all regarding the meet, please just drop me a PM and I will be happy to help out with anything I know Guildford like the back of my hand, so if you need directions for on the day then please let me know!

Sup nerds! Happy to announce my first meet and TPM's February meet! The date is now set for the 28th of February 2016! I know it's short notice but I've heard a few people saying they would be interested in either aspect of this event so we'll see how it goes The idea is to go swimming at the Guildford Spectrum water park in the afternoon, go out for a meal, and then return to the Spectrum for one of their famous Ice Xtreme Ice Discos! Okay so the plan for the day! Meet on the Guildford Spectrum stairs at 15:00 to get ready for our swimming session ideally at 15:30. The swimming session will be £6.90 for adults and £5.20 for under 16's, it lasts for 90 minutes and the pool looks really cool and has a few decent water slides to enjoy. Then we will head out to get something to eat, probably at the Beefeater next door. Finally we will go back to the Spectrum for the start of the ice disco which begins at 20:30, and ends at 23:00 on a Saturday and 22:30 on the Sunday, so the ending time for this meet depends on which date is chosen! The price for the disco is £5.90 if we go on a Saturday and £5.60 if we go on Sunday plus £2 skate hire. Depending on which activities most people are doing we will also fit the Group Photo in somewhere! I'll hand out my number for everyone on the day so if anyone is running late, coming late, or gets split up anywhere they can contact me Anyone is welcome to come, even if you've never posted on the forum or been to a meet before. It's nice to see people in a relaxed atmosphere outside of the theme parks that we are usually in! Feel free to PM me if you want any more information or are unsure about anything Please post here or PM me to say if you're coming to the meet and I'll update the list here so we all know! You are welcome to bring a guest with you but please let us know their names so they aren't known as +1!

Good morning all of you wonderful people! I'm very excited to officially announce plans for our Guildford Meet 2016! As usual you had the power to vote and you changed the date of the meeting once again so the meet at the moment is provisionally on Saturday 2nd January 2016. Due to popular request there will be an additional event to the line up this year which is Air Hop. A Trampolining park down the road So if you are going to be there from the start meet at Air Hop at 11:30 - Prices for it are £10 but £11.50 if you don't own airhop socks! Here is a link so you know how to get there http://airhop-guildford.com/finding-us/ and http://www.guildfordspectrum.co.uk/content/view/14/31/ The Outline of the day will be as follows: Meet outside Airhop for 11:30am to get yourself ready for the safety briefing for our session between 12pm and 1pm. After this is done we will make our way to the Guildford Spectrum where we should arrive around 1:30pm as shown in a cheeky helpful picture below (in case you don’t know the area). We will then have a quick snack/ eat within the spectrum which currently offers a Wimpy (Burgers), Trattoria (Pizza), The View (Like the 360 Bar), Costa Coffee (Coffee )& The Strikes Bar (Drinks), so this should cater for everyone’s different tastes. This then gives us time to go get are skates and lockers ready to hit the Ice as soon as the session starts at 15:00. Price’s are yet to be confirmed for 2015 but at the moment they are approximately £6.00 for the session and £2.00 for the Skate Hire (10p more than last year for the second year in a row ). During the skating session those who do not want to skate can be a spectator to all the comedy you’ve been framed moments of us falling over (and maybe get the cheeky video clip ). The session will finish at 4:30pm where those who have not come to Skate and only want to show up for the meal and bowling can meet us within the Ice Skating arena. Before those skaters leave who do not want to bowl we have The Return Of The Group Photo so you can all have a picture to remember your day. Then we will get to play 2 games of bowling starting hopefully at 17:30pm which is priced at £5.70 each (20p more than last year )which should provide a good amusing end to the day. The event will approximately finish around 8pm if you want a rough estimate and after which you will be free to do whatever you please - Most likely we will end up at a Frankie & Bennie's as per tradition . I will be handing out my phone number for everyone who is attending the meet that day, should there be any problems. We aim to stay together as a group for the day, going from one activity to the next, enjoying getting to know people you share very similar interests with, the idea is to just go with the flow and enjoy the day with some awesome people. Whilst we cannot force you to stay with the group, it is the general purpose of these meets! You will have my number if you become split so by all means use it. The meets are a fantastic laugh and everyone is invited, even if you’ve never posted before or been to any kind of meet at all. If it's your first meet, I understand it can be nerve breaking - but we were all there at one point so know how it feels, please don't let this stop you from attending - Once there you'll be part of the group in no time! Once again, everyone will have my phone number so please use it on the day If anyone has any issues or concerns or even nervous about coming, feel free to post here, or PM myself and I will get back to you as soon as possible. If you feel like my response is taking too long another member of the team will be more than happy to help. We will all try and help you out as much as we can. Please PM me or post here to say if you’re attending (and which parts your attending). I’ll update the lists where appropriate! Meeting place is around these stairs outside the spectrum.
