I like to take on the btp & tfl staff about the 1st one seeing as i be first to run into the stations i just tell them to f**k off and leave me alone.Soup Dragon wrote:scrxisi wrote:I think collectively we'll be the biggest bunch of clowns ever.
Slightly related note, when the BTP and general Underground security keep stopping us, we need a nominated spokesman to step forward and explain things. I will crack under the pressure and generally spout rubbish, so anyone up for this task?
As discussed, we'll do GWR things on the off-chance everything goes really well. Are we going to rotate these tasks or do people want to just do them all day? I own no cameras but can use one if furnished with it! Pre-printed witness statements and/or leaflets need prodcuing - and I think we'll need more than your average CiN attempt! I'm going to go down Oxfam and buy at least the pin badge to wear on my costume to identify me as a Comic Relief bod, maybe even a red nose too for intermittent use
Tickets are Antony's domain, this week I think you said? Do we want a simple webpage knocking together or whall we use the justgiving/comic releif ones already pulished? A URL would probably want to go on a leaflet... I forget - did someone say they were going to do some twittering on the day?
Will we all want to carry bags? Suggest we all travel as light as possible. If this means we can share bags then we should coordinate this in advance - then perhaps we can do a bit of bag carrying rotation too on the day.
Route is set, with only two options at one stage. Unless a major catastrophe happens, we should probably just stick to it. We HAVE to travel as a group, so should do our best not to split up. If we do end up seperated, what's the contingency? Wait at next stop/next interchange? We need to get some kind of simple arrangement in place so as to minimise confusion on the day, if it happens.
Meeting place - first train is 0623 from HT4 I believe, so shall we say 0600 at HT4? Gives us time to laugh at each other and get it out of our system in good time... I can bring two walkie talkies if they are being used - will probably try and leave my phone at home on this one, but may go back on that. We should, of course, all have them set to the same frequency if we are bringing them, or maybe not depending on level of abuse, hehe
I know there's still a week to go but I wanna think about things now so we can have as much fun as possible on the day. Anything else we need to consider?
So you want to get arrested then... I would recommend diplomacy, especially as you will be dressed as a convictpalkanetoijala31 wrote:I like to take on the btp & tfl staff about the 1st one seeing as i be first to run into the stations i just tell them to f**k off and leave me alone.
OK I think you should do this James, does your Power Ring have some sort of hypnotic powers of persuasion?

Cheers Damo, we are both used to it so might as well keep 2 separate logs and synchronise watchesnozzacook wrote:I'm happy to help with the logging Kev.
