Be Excellent To Each Other

The one with the bowling.

The one with the kilt
The one with the ice

The one where Craster and Mr Dave adopted a duck.

Fixed to be an actual cottage event.

Haha I'd forgotten about that insanity.

Noob question: What do I need to bring? Clothes, toiletries and booze are a given, but do I need to bring food?

We'll order in Pizza Friday night, the Yes Chef!s will cook dinner Saturday night, and we'll order something else in Sunday. We usually attempt to get communal bread and milk and bacon for breakfasts, but it's worth getting yourself whatever you might want for lunches and snacks.

Bring a towel, they're not provided.

There's an A.S.D.A.s just up the road so food runs are common

After seven cottages I might be able to find the turning first time this year.

I'll alert Ron to be on standby.

I thought I'd mastered it last time, then took the other turn on the track and ended up on the wrong side of the fence.

Snob

It's fun to shop at the

Cheers. So imma need some cash.

And crisps. Obv.

The grass is much nicer there though.

There it is!

I am well excited!

Better write the quiz!

Note that all of these things are "if you like". If you want to get some fish and chips on Saturday night, say - go for you life.

Also note that the Yes Chef!s will ask you for money once and then forget about it forever DEMAND HARD CASH for the food on Saturday, if you want some. And someone else will on Friday. And Sunday.

Last year I took a tenner a head for the pizza on Friday, which I charged to my card. In October... I didn't go to a cash point again until January.

Swindler!

Knew I should have given him a cheque.

If you'd given me a cheque you'd still have the cash. 100% guaranteed.

Sorry, meant to get back earlier - Not sure if I have any multiplayer games (Or indeed, how easy it would be to setup two vr things networked at said cottage) - See the list below if you haev any there which would work. Also for interested parties to decide what they may want to try

Accounting - Quick storyish thing from the some guy to do with Rick and Morty
ADR1FT - A game about being adrift in space. May make you eel a bit ill.
Audioshield - Rhythm action game. Quite fun. Very sweaty.
Budget Cuts Demo - A stealth game. The full version seems to be taking its time
Cloudlands: VR Minigolf. Crazy golf. Sometimes very crazy. (Par 30 levels of crazy)
Elite Dangerous - Given we couldn't get this working last year due to the always online thing, I'm not bothering to bring the required controls
fantastic Contraption - Make a contraption. (Despite coming with the vive, I've still never actually played this)
GORN Gladiatorial melee fighter fromthe makers of such wonders as BROFORCE and Genital jousting. (Only recently bought, never played)
Holoball Pong, but 3D. And mreo fun. And tiring.
Holopoint - Fight things in a dojo. Walk into walls and hurt ourself
Hover Junkers- Still multiplayer oly, I believe. With no players to multi it.
I Expect you to die - Puzzly Spy em up with death.
Job Simulator - Job simulator
Keep talking an noone explodes Local multiplayer bomb e diffusion game, need to find manual I put away last year.
Knee Deep I don't remember buying this.Having looked at the store page, I'm still not overly sure what it is.
The last sniper VR Also don't remember buying this. I guess it's about being a sniper after a sniper cull. Either that or running of platforms backwards.
Lightblade VR - Lightsabres.
Omega Agent I also don't remember buying this. Looks like a jetpack-em-up or something
Project CARS Drive a car quickly. Not bringing wheel.
Race the sun Think I got this for free before the vive was even a thing. I think you fly in it, presumably either against the rotation of the globe or against some other point of reference to the sun.
Raw Data Also not played this. Supposed to be a good futuristic ninjaing game or something with various multiplaying things too.
Sairentro Have played this. A good futuristic ninjaing game with bullet time and things.
Space Pirate trainer - That thing you all played last year and liked
Spell fighter VR Be a remarkably nauseous wizard.
Sportsbar VR This was a quite unconvincing pool game when I bought it with wierd people who you could put your head in. I think it's been worked on quite considerably sice then.
Superhot VR Superhot. But in VR.
Surgeon Simulator VR: Meet the medic Be an incompetent surgeon.
Thumper Fast whizzy rhythm thing.
Tilt Brus Paint. But 3D.
The Lab Minigames from Valve.
The vanishing of ethan carter VR The vanishing of Ethan Carter. but in VR.
Vanishing realms Dunno. About some realm that vanishes or something.
Windlands Grappling hooks and a world hovering over an abyss.

Davpaz... Don't forget your cheque book!

I once knew someone who would get friends to write him cheques for a million pounds to put in a scrapbook for his collection.

Pffff... as if I have a cheque book!

Your word is sufficient?

Does anyone know what the oven(s?) is/are like? I was going to make a cake to bring but I might not have time so I was thinking I could do it on site....

What?!

If that is multiplayer, not sure I want to play...

Well... it's no Aga, or even a Rayburn.

Pretty boggy. Most of the temperature dials are unreadable. Also note that use of the kitchen(s) is VERBOTEN when the Yes Chef!s are cooking. Unless you're kindly helping.

Just like 'Call of Duty', you play a marine and....

I'm sad you're not attending this year.

GORN Gladiatorial melee fighter fromthe makers of such wonders as BROFORCE and Genital jousting. (Only recently bought, never played)

Baking has possibly been done at the other cottage as well? Should be feasible for you to do it, but you'll want an oven thermometer and to keep an eye on it.

Oven thermometer? Far too much faff. I'll just have to do some late night baking on Thursday. Cheers guys

Amusingly I have hardly anything in that list, and I always forget about the lack of mobile signal or other networking capabilities, so yeah - I'll leave it at home. Probably best, if I move the PC it might reveal horrible cat-related bodily excretions behind it.

Sal's doing some now!

This is my last day at work this week but I've still got to take my girls swimming on Friday evening so I won't be there until about 8ish... possibly.

I'm going shopping on the way home today. My list consists of cereal, pepsi or coke and chocolates. Done.

Awesome!

Coke? What type of party is this exactly?

I won't be there until after 8 either. Probably.

I'll be drunk. HTH.

Spot on Giphy! Good work!

My train gets in to Derby just before 13:00 I think, so probably be at the cottage between 13:30 and 14:00 or so.
