Weekend of Outdoor Pursuits

[keith_henson]

Evening all

I had a call from where I used to work on the Isle of Wight a few days ago. This was on an outdoor pursuits centre about 5 miles from Cowes. They have an offer of a weekend of fun - consisting of High Ropes, Abseiling, Rock Climbing, Quads, Dragon Boating and various other stuff. The beer is 1.60 a pint (fosters) and 1.90 for 1664, shots are 2 quid a double (from when I was there last).

The standard price, including accomodation 3 meals per day and tea and coffee is 250 pounds, the offer is 110 pounds per person. The minimum that is allowed in a group is 8 people, max is about 100 - depending on space at the centre. Its a bloody good weekend, I can vouch for that!

If you fancy it please post here - the dates set are the 18-20th. Arrive on the 18th early evening (you need to get a ferry ticket from porstmouth to fishbourne or southampton to cowes - both about the same cost. Look at www.wightlink.co.uk or www.redfunnel.co.uk), have a "few" beers, proceed to jump of high things - or if you want to fins a dive boat off the island for the day.

Get merry saturday night, more outdoor pursuits sunday, leave after luncheon.


Any queries - PM me or email me keith@oceans23.com


Cheers

I'm flying back from working in Barcelona that evening, so getting there early is not really an option.........

BUT it sounds like fun........ Juz will be looking into options tomorrow.

So the Kinky's could be an option!

Hi, I would be interested (possibly) in march but earlier in the month would be better if possible? Regards AnneMArie

aye

the reason that it is those dates is because thats half term for all the kids at school and the centre generally dont have none of tehm running around then
