Andy, I assume this Humber has an inboard engine. It sure has a complicated A Frame arrangement!
Is it amphibious?

About as amphibious as my bloody rib really. You could wade in it but it weighs 4 tonnes.

She is made of Iron captian, belive me, she'll sink!

Are you trying to recruit an entire platoon, Ribraff?

And where the hell is Suzuki 416 when you need him? As an ex-Para I'd have thought this would be right up his street. Unless of course he's planning a covert 'drop' on Saturday morning.

And to Saturday's victors the spoils of war; to the losers 6 months RIB piloting in Gabon.

Phil,

I'll be there for the next one (on the Southern Side).

I love paintballing - well shooting people anyway!!!
Organise an event for the summer & count me in.

Pete

Suzuki has been on location for the past two weeks now. I noticed his covert lay up point last week, he has been shitting in his pants and eating cold rations for the same time. By the time we play, he will be so cold he wont be able to move and you can take him out.

John, can you call me asap cos i'm buggered if i know how many people are coming now and i need to make sure i have the right kit sorted. Been up there all day, building my new 4x4 course. Hard life really............................

Right, the list is now closed, and this is who we've got:

John Kennett
Martin Stacey
Jono Garton
David Manning
Ian
Daniel
Jackeen & Missus
Louise
Richard B
Phil Davies
Rogue Wave *
Ribraff x2 *
Andre *

plus 5 jet skiers, and a man called Tat

* haven't paid a deposit, full amount payable on the day please

Captains will be Missus and Louise. They get to pick teams on the day, so be nice to them

Lunch will be delivered from the local chippie, so have a think about what you want to order to avoid the "I'll have sausage and chips. Sausage in batter actually. Oh, no, I think I'd rather have a pie. Erm, do they do fish and chips? Yes, that's what I'll have. Yes, I'm sure. Definitely. OK. Oooh, sorry, can I change that? I'd like a sausage after all please" routine.

John

I'll order now if you like because if they're anything like my local chippie they'll need a couple of days' notice to cook the chicken. Mine's a wing of chicken (but I'll take a leg if they've got no wings) with chips, nicely browned please, and not the horrible fat white chips one comes across occasionally. And a can of shandy, the one in the blue tin made with real beer, and some bread and butter - that's white bread by the way, none of your healthy wholegrain nonsense, and real butter, not margarine, although Olivio is acceptable.

Missus, you could do with him in your squad. He's probably the only one who has done any shooting in recent years

Moral Dilemma

As regards team building(!!!!!!!!!!!!!) would you lot prefer to be named & shamed (bearing in mind it's no glory to be picked first...just means you're dangerous lookin!!!!!!)

or picked out of a hat as Louise has just suggested...

Missus

UPDATE STOP PRESS

Hat it is (unanimous)
