Yeah stuff like that is fun. My current employers took me out on a team go-karting day a week before I even started. Ran one of the directors off the track into a wall. Now everyone respects me as a young man who takes no shit. He came back later and annihilated me with a head-on collision so we're cool too.

Well that was a bit alright. Except at the end where I got hit at pretty close range in the chin. Fucker found its way under my mask.

When I went to that stag dude, both bum cheeks were purple. I do have a monumentally big arse so I guess keeping it in cover was a bit of a task. One of the twats on my team (randomer) discharged his gun at the back of my head, I felt like kicking him in the testies for that.

I probably welshed on it a bit tbh, partly cos I needed a piss through most of it and quite a walk from base camp. What I love though is they're not the most accurate so you've gotta aim so it dips at the right moment. The sound of them whizzing past you when you know someone's got you marked is pretty fun as well. Oh, and pretending your Withnail at the end by shooting into the stream.

I really want to do it again. Good fun. I want to go laser quest too, just everyone my age group are buying houses and having kids and adult stuff. Life is slack.

My one experience with paintball was intense and actually involved me holding a guy screaming "MEDIC". He only had some paint on his goggles but you gotta get into it man.

Never done paintball before. Could be a laugh.

I've done paintball up near Wakefield. Was immense fun, though I had a proper stonking cold at the time.

Where would everyone be up for doing it travel-wise? In Leamington Spa we're basically slap bang in the middle of everyone.

I didn't think people would actually be up for it! I'd be game but I live on about 200 a month which isn't really enough to do fun things...
