I need a bigger watergun.
Apperantly the Mutual Assured Wetting idea didnt work in this case.
Who has some pictures of the whole thing?

Mario - the water gun was fine even though the water came out like lemonade. Thank heavens I wasnt on the receiving end of it. Anyway we all got more wet from the rain on Saturday than from each other.
Im still trying to fixed the jammed super soaker ready for any battle that might take place at the world champs.

Yer it was a great event.
Did the tornado team run the teslacoil in the end?
I really wanted to see that going.
Oh and Dave, dont worry, the party wasnt that amazing, but the bouncy castle was, hehe.
I did have planned some petrol powered water guns, but i didnt have time to get them running, oh well.

Oooh hes coming to us like the Terminator !!! was something Mario heard from the fleeing masses. Ah well, the other Flemish and Dutchmen (with the exception of WJ but he is a special case anyway...) stayed dry and cozy in the beertent while the rest of the crowd was either trying to outrun a very efficient Kane-Mario-team or trying to get their baberques started in the downpour. Dont know what hit them harder: the heavenly buckets or the KM-teams wettinators.

The event itself was great, efficient people all around as usual, but I dont know what that poor girl in bikinis was doing in the pits on Sunday. Man, she must have frozen to death that poor kitty ! And no kind gentlemen offering their coats ! Shame on you !!

Match Report:
Tilly AFC vs Windy Wonders FC

It was a glorius evening at the Newark showground even the rain couldnt spoil the event. The two captains lined up the, Mighty Mini Shane and the Sian the trig Phillips, took there picks and the sides were drawn.
both sides got off to an explosive start and quickly the scores were 3-1 to the Windy wonders, so the mighty Tilly AFC desided to bring in number one goal keeper Paul Gibbo the mighty Gibb which helped there cause to no evale as soon its was 4-2 and the sheer brilliant captain Shane Tilly took an injury to his mighty little finger and both him and Craig the cannon Danby had to leave the field of play, with the injury departure of what be came clear the 2 best players on the pitch the fantastic Tilly AFC went 9-3 down to the lax and un impressive Windy Wonders.
the mighy Gibb soon gave way to second choice goalie telsa man Dave gamble which some what explained the score line, then the long awaited return of captain Shane and the Cannon brought a turn around. with the score at 9-3 it was time Tilly AFC turned on the charm and blagged there way back into the match.
Cannon Craig Danby took his time in goal and became top shot stopper with that and the combination of killer crosses from Mr Kenny himself and Ian DTKs better than Dantomkia and mighty runs from dutch wonder WJ whos anti-gravity passes soon turned the tide of defeat to a tsunami of victory with capt trig letting in 12 goals to get the score to 15-9 and a glorius display from Tilly AFC

Take a look in a few days, there will be more to come!

Ive had a great time, even though the robot broke down the first day and nobody seemed to have a spare bosh. Too bad there where lots of burned out electronics and motors.
