What a day, I really had a ball, well done to Sparkie and John... Paintballing was brilliant, espically the second game - those of us who ventured into the muddy trenches we able to pick people off, its a shame Ger didnt play, but at least he didn't fake a hangover like Sarah :lol:

I have about 8 marks on me which are real bad, I am blaming one of the girls who was on my team, she sent me out to capture a flag ... that turned out to be nothing to do with the game ... and I got pummled :lol: All good fun though.

Thanks a million Mark and John.....some very nice roads!
Sorry I bailed out on the actual paintballing....was feeling quite ill this morning and didn't exactly relish the idea of being chased around a field by a crazed Starry Walsh armed with paintballs! I wasn't the only wuss though......... :roll: :roll: :roll:
Cheers lads...and thanks for the certificate.....eventhough I didn't actually earn it!

No Mark, not scared. Had planned something with the kids but that went out the window aswell, so yesterday and today were spent in A&E in C.U.H.

Anyway two kids by 25, my aim is spot on :P

Well done Mark and John. Another great day, and the paintballing was good fun. I managed to get through 650 paintballs, oops.

No it was Actionpak standard issue, for some reason I think it kept on jamming up. But I was just defending our flag. :lol:

Thanks to everyone that came out yesterday, we truely had a great day!

Lots of funny 'friendly fire' moments like when Starry made great ground, making it all the way to within 2 metres of the 'enemy' flag, when all of a sudden some 'friendly' fire to his back side stopped his forward progression!!

And Oliver, I hope you got that Yellow paint out of your hair.. your glasses.. your mouth! :P :wink:


I want to acknowledge John aswell as he put in mountains of organising into this one ! - Thanks

The MCOI have also organised discounted framing for anyone who wants to frame their certificate.... :P :P


Anyway! Roll on the next MCOI event ! 8) 8)
