PAINTBALL IN JULY
im trying to arrange a day of paintball (@ my paintball site in the south - south meaning Bournemouth, aprrox 2.3hrs from burton 4 from manchester) ur prolly have 2 get a hotel/B&B if ur commin from man or further...
day will start @ 9:30 finish about 3:30
costs for the day are 20 quid this covers - Overalls, Goggles, Gun, Gas, Lunch + 100 balls
extra paint is 6 quid per 100 balls, but i'm gonna try and get it down 2 5p a ball.. (so what u say - but it does make a difference for ppl using alot of paint)
we have full flushing toilet facilites on-site
unsure of the exact date yet - but i'll try and book the day-in so we can play as Clan GO against who everelse is there..
please post on here if ur interested so i hav an idea of numbers
thanx

What would the actual cost be all told ?
Having no idea of B&B Prices + how much paint you would consume...

I'm Interested but i need to find some mug who will give me a lift down from Liverpool....I'll just go and ask Dante *cough*
Depends if you are using a snigle fire or semi auto i think for paint - I only used 500 in a day. 100 in the first 20 minutes and i realised you hasd to pace yourself
Can you camp at this paintball site Bobster? The one in Halkyn N Wales had like a field for tents and caravans

k, expansion on prices...
average B&B is 35 a night
there are camp sites all over here so i'll get some prices for those..
as for paint... errr its as fast as u pull the trigger the guns we have on site are Semi auto so 5-6 shots a second.. paint u use is up2 u, i can use about 500-600 a game.. so 10 games u looking at 5000 paint x 5p a ball is 250 quid but if u shoot that much prolly get a discount down 2 4p a ball...

Yeah Bob, I'd be up fer that.
Remember lads, you dont have to take much equipment so maybe train is an option...
I can probably get down if you give me enough warning...
And maybe if anyone is coming from higher north and they wanna stop halfway down.. I got spare beds 
well, bed, and I dont want any stinkers

A few hundred quid for a days rolling about in the mud is a bit too much for me.

ooops did i forget 2 mention thats me against 30 other ppl
cos the rest of the ppl who play on the day just sit back and let me do the work
ur prolly shoot somewhere between 100-200 a game.. so looking @ 1500 paint max @ 5p a ball is 75 quid + game fee...

Still imagine the amount of boddies you could get down macro for 75quid, and you dont have to get covered in paint
