    Talking Laser Quest...

    We did "Laser Quest" this afternoon at work... ie the whole company took the afternoon off and went to play soldiers in a barn, in the middle of nowhere... it was brilliant... running around in the dark with your teeth glowing in the UV light, and a flashy vest on, shooting the boss in the back as he's busy sniping someone else through a hole in the wall brilliant fun.. and I came second... by 5 points!!!! For all the game only lasted 15 minutes - we were all thoroughly knackered afterwards - but on the bright side, it only cost a fiver, and there's a nice pub just down the road a ways with loverly cold cold cold Guinness on hmmm beeeeeeer

    I've only done paintballing once but my word did it rock! Lasers? Pah! Lets have some REAL projectiles flying around!

    Laserquest is still immensely fun though.

    Man used to love laser quest when i was a kid, sucks balls now though where I live hehe. Good idea is to back against a wall and cover your front pack - invincibility!

    They used to be a deal at the Reading lazerquest, £25 for 6 hours. One day it was just the 6 of us all day and at the end we played two 45 minute games. We were all just sitting down by the end hidden and unable to move from exhaustion. Fun time had by all

    Went paintballing at the weekend - stag do - it was class.
    Nimrod for those who know him (Xtr for one) did probably one of the funnist things I've ever seen:
    He's a bit a of a Counter Strike nut and during one of the games decides to use a smoke grenade, in true counterstrike style he throws it into the tree infront of him watching it bounce back and land at his feet. I was in tears of laughter

    High light of the day was torwards the end for me was knackerd and couldnt be bothered to do all that tree to tree and running about stuff. Just walked straight up the middle firing the gun one handed John Woo style, got shot to death loads but took a few with me Also managed to get a few surrenders that day too - when you sneak up to someone and with the gun point blank (usally aiming at the nuts) and ask them if they want to take a stinger or surrender, strangly enough they all did - class
