Fleet 2010 Challenge - *IMPORTANT NEWS*



Ladies and Gentlemen of the Fleet. Happy New Year to you all.

At the 2010 planning session, attended by Stu, Craig, Ali, Campbell, c9ck, Coco and Starjarama, the following (mega) idea was floated by Coco, Craig and Stu....

The Fleet 2010 Challenge will take the form of 12 events spread across the whole year with points awarded depending on where you rank at each event. As not all of us will be able to make all events, only the top 9 scores you receive will count in the final league table.

The Q1 events are as follows:

Event 1: Darts. This will take place on 21st January 2010 at either Campbell's Garage where Pool will also be available as a side entertainment, or at The New Yorker, where there are multiple Dart Boards.

Event 2: Table Tennis. This will take place on a PRELIMINARY DATE of 18th February 2010 at Meadowbank Sports Centre.

Event 3: Ten Pin Bowling. This will take place on a PRELINIARY DATE of 18th March 2010 at Fountain Park, Fountainbridge.

The following events are yet to be organised and may vary in their order depending on available dates and venues:
  • Long Jump (@ Meadowbank)
  • Archery (Cardo to organise for us all)
  • Collie Buckie (@ c9ckburn street)
  • 400 Metres (@ Meadowbank - you'll be missing this one Cervi, yeah?)
  • Billiards (@ New Yorker or alternative full size snooker table venue)
  • Sumo Wrestling (suits to be hired (Campbell has one already ;)), ring to be created in Coco's back garden)
  • Go Karting (East or West Lothian to be decided - defo Q3 event)
  • Subbuteo Championship (venue to be discussed)
  • Assault Course Challange (@ Riccarton, Q2 event)
Backup events, that have been discussed that MAY be required, in order of possible additions to the script, are:
  • Golf
  • FIFA Evening
  • Squash
  • Chess
  • Tennis
  • Dominoes
  • Cluedo
  • Basketball
  • Tiddly Winks
  • Survivor
  • World's Strongest Man
  • Karaoke
  • Diving
  • Parachuting
  • Bungie Jumping
  • Chicken Fighting
  • Greyhound Owning / Training / Racing
  • Base Jumping
  • It's a Knockout / Takeshi's Castle
  • 10 lengths of a Swimming Pool
  • Anal Penetration (non-barebacking event)
Point system and rules for each event to be discussed and circulated amongst all in due course.

The following participants have been automatically entered into the fold:
  • Antonio Cervi
  • Gavin Stark
  • Robin Card
  • Craig Paterson
  • Jonathan Bryce
  • Kevin Campbell
  • Michael Hymers
  • Martin Urquhart
  • Stuart Milne
  • Alisdair Wight
  • Olliver Hughes
  • James C9ckburn
  • Andrew Lumsden
Finally, you will note that this is an ongoing series of Events that take place to crown the 2010 Challenge Champion. Again, i reiterate that you do not need to attend all 12 and there will be opportunities to attend two events in one sitting (Meadowbank Events, New Yorker Events for example), thus the comittment is lessened (don't panic everyone!!). We may also dovetail some events i.e. Collie Buckie, with another night out, for example the Xmas Night Out :p.

There are other proposed STAND-ALONE events for 2010 as well:

1) Cannonball Run - Provisional Date is Saturday 1st May 2010. Cardo's to Oban. 12 Tasks on route. This WILL happen in 2010.
2) 40-30 Celebrations - Q1 or Q2 event, I believe. Watch out for more on that as Cardo and c9ck turn 30 and 40.
3) Fleet Summer Xtravagnza 2010 / Coco's Ma's Birthday - Sat 21st August 2010 (no doubt).
4) Fleet School Sports Day - Q3 Event. More to follow.
5) Fleet Caption Competition - Q2 Event.

EXCO Campbell.

ZooL's Application of the Month

Sailors.

Do you use more than one Computer? Work PC, Desktop PC, Laptop PC, maybe your phone, maybe your Netbook? Do you move files about between the two? Isn't using a USB stick a pain in the Argos? Yes. Sometimes it is.

Introducing 'Dropbox'. Get that downloaded on to all your machines and you can drop files and folders off into a special directory and then access them from any other PC or the interweb. Great for moving files about shared locations.

The amount of times that i go to install something like WinRAR on multiple machines, is outrageous. Killed with one stone. Genius.

That's all.

Thunder thighs

Check out thunder thighs!! You should have seen the size of his ass!!

C9ckburn in sheep shame...

Dear oh dear. Baaaaad.
