Still need one more Gong Act - and am hoping for someone who has never taken part before.  Anyone fancy a laugh?  No one has ever regretted taking part and some (Ryan) come back year after year!  Even if you don't have an act but want to take part contact me as I have loads of silly ideas!  You'll probably only be on stage for 15 seconds!
E-mail me at andy@rccgb.co.uk (subject 'Gong Show')
Thanks

I must be MAAAAD!! Laughing
Every year I always say to myself "I wonder if I will be doing another act next year?"....as Ideas are hard to come by.
But saying that.......yet another idea has cropped up again this year Wink  so I'm afraid yet again guys you are stuck with another act from me this year Very Happy  Very Happy
Seriously though.........................I have never regretted doing it. JUST GO FOR IT AND GIVE IT A TRY Laughing
It is fantastic fun,
Even if you get gonged/boo'd off. (I'm glad to say that I have only been gonged off once, as most people want to hear and see the Full act).
Thanks guys What a privilage Very Happy
See you at Blackers
Ryan

I will be giving the nightclub a miss this year.

Dance night clubs dont really interest me much these days plus the Fri / sat night is the only chance to have a good chat to some friends who i dont get to see very often.

Plus i got run over by a tram last year  Shocked   Laughing

Adam Bradley


No, nightclubs don't interest me neither. I'm sure it will be a great social oppuortunity as I wouldn't get to see people very often from RCCGB.

We driving up from Bournemouth, stopping in at Southport during the afternoon. Hopefully it'll be open!

Then it's evening beer and entertainment. No clubbing for me as i'll be knackered.

Me and Mum are heading up there just after the morning rush hour, hopefully. Going to get the new Camelot tick in the form of Knightmare on the way up.
Can't wait now. Very Happy

I'll also be visiting Camelot on the way up to the Bash.

It's a toss up between clubbing, Funny Girls (had lots of recommendations), after show drinks or a night cap on the Friday evening. Will see how I'm feeling on the night.

Not long to go folks. Can't wait to see you all again.

We will keep a lookout for you aswell Mouseyboy  Laughing Great to hear you are joining us for the best weekend in the year, apart from Megamania lol.
Me and Mum will be doing the Tower after the ERS on the sunday, so can you guys not bother bringing the fog again please  Laughing although it was quite bizzare last year on the walk of faith and from the picture it looked like I was sitting on the clouds, although I'm no Angel  Razz

Yeah, I'm not going to miss yet another Bash!

Might be a mini take-over going on up the Tower on the Sunday as me and Ste (Keefe) plan on heading up after the ERS also.

Hail All! Twisted Evil
Well...Assuming I'm not going to default to my usual absent-minded self and forget in the morning, I should have my membership renewal and Bash form in the post later today. Just gotta hope the cheque doesn't bounce! ShockedLaughingRazz

As someone has asked: No, Nev hasn't got me down for any acts this year at all. On the other hand, I did PM him with an idea for an interesting Gong Show act that I'd like to do earlier this evening...But if Andy accepts it (And the Paradise Room give their consent to the use of certain props) then I'd probabally have a minimum act duration this year due to what I'm doing... ShockedRolling EyesWink

As for when I'll be there on the Friday: I'll probabally be around South Beach area after 16:00 or so as I'll be staying in the same B&B as I did last year if they have space available. On the other hand, it really depends how long I'll have to wait at Taunton for my connecting train! LaughingVery HappyRazz

Farewell, and see ye all at the 'Bash! Twisted Evil

I am coming up on the Thursday, so I will have the whole of Friday to do things, like the peirs, the Tower ect.

I have had a look at the Sandcastle website and it looks a really good pool with slides, wave machine and rapids.

I think RCCGB will be offering discounts for members at Pizza Hut, Ocean Boulevard by the the Pleasure Beach and hopefully if you ride the Spinning Mouse on the South Peir, as I know last year if you showed your membership card you recieved a free second ride.

Also there is the Sealife Centre if any of you wanted to make use of your Merlin Passes.

The zoo sounds good as I have never been to the one in Blackpool before.

Just got in from work (left early tonight!) and am just about to print the Bash programmes.  Depending how long I can stay awake, I'll fold them and stuff them with your trip badges into envelops and on the way to work tomorrow (I'm on another 10am - midnight shift!).  So hopefully you should get everything by Tues/Wed.

If you don't and you have sent your booking, please give it a couple more days then contact me.  If you haven't booked, then don't expect anything  Laughing
And if you are going to book, better send the form quick as the booking deadline is Friday.

Andy

Please stop talking about the Blackpool Bash and Funny Girls and Tower visit 'cos I can't do any of it. Boo hoo! Sad

My boyfriend's birthday is 13th April and I abandoned him last year to do the Bash. I daren't abandon him again this year. Despite growing up on Lytham Road, i.e. behind Blackpool Pleasure Beach, he doesn't like coasters!

Have a fun weekend everyone and I'll look forward to seeing what I missed in the next year book! See you at Loopathon if not before.

Hail All! Twisted Evil
Well...I got my tickets somewhere between Wednesday and Thursday, I can't remember...But I've got them, and that's the main thing so far as I'm concerned! Cool
By the by...If anyone's still yet to book their accommodation, may I make a shameless plug for the hotel that I'm using; The Verdo in Osbourne Road. Cool

This is a very nice B&B situated in one of the back roads just North of the Pleasure Beach (About three mins walk to the Paradise Room) with all en-suite rooms, breakfast included, and good rates if I'm any judge. When I booked with them earlier today, they said that they were fairly quiet over the 'Bash weekend, so there should still be a few rooms available there. Being within five mins walk of Blackpool South station, it'd be a good choice for anyone coming in via public transport as well. Smile

As far as I know, room rates over the 'Bash weekend are: (E&OE)
  • £20.00 Per person/night - Single occupancy,
  • £35.00 Per person/night - Two in a double room
If ye want to check 'em out, call (01253) 343 811, or go to http://www.verdohotel.com Cool

* - Note: The Verdo is a quiet B&B mainly orientated towards families and the over 55's. Therefore, groups of younger people may not find this establishment suitable for them.

Farewell, and see ye all at Blackpool! Twisted Evil
