Ice Mob event, Sept 20th! (past event)

CacheWalker gets chilly - Ice Mob Event
HTML http://coord.inf
o/GC5C644
Thanks for organising [member=3]walktall[/member] :)
This is an Ice Mob Event to have a bit of fun in the icy waters
of the Windrush in the middle of Bourton-on-the-Water and to
confuse the locals!
What is a Ice Mob Event?
This is very similar to a Flash Mob Event except you will be
standing in water to sign the log book and for those who want to
do it, pouring icy water over themselves (optional)! If you are
not familiar with a Flash Mob Event, the idea is to be close to
the Event co-ordinates but blend in with the muggles, acting
like a muggle. At the start of the Flash Mob Event, usually a
whistle is sounded, you all congregate at the Event
co-ordinates, sign the log, swap trackables and have a chat. At
the end, again a whistle is sounded, you all disperse as quickly
as you came, leaving the locals wondering what on earth just
happened!
The Event will begin precisely at 12:00 noon and conclude
precisely at 12:15pm.
This Event is to have a bit of fun in the icy waters of the
Windrush. It's optional but why not join in a mass pouring of
icy Windrush water over yourself, hopefully someone will be
taking pictures. So bring along a bucket, spare clothing and
towel but REMEMBER, until till 12 noon, you are a muggle and
shouldn't stand out of the crowd
There will be a log book to sign but can you please BYOP (bring
your own pen), to speed up signing.
Hopefully we will get a group photo as well just before the
Event ends.
Keep a watch on the Event just in case of any updates.
Parking:
Bourton-on-the-Water is a busy place for parking with all the
muggles about; DON’T expect to find any parking very close to
the Event. There are several Pay and Display car parks but if
you are prepared for a short walk, there are free parking spots
off Station Road at a local supermarket and country store
outlets at N51 53.297 W001 45.295. MAKE SURE you allow time for
parking; I wouldn't want you to miss logging the Event as you
were trying to find some where to park!

Hope you all have a great time tomorrow, I have a bad cold so
didn't think it'd be wise to attend, giving the forecast too
:(

Sorry you're feeling under the weather. You should pop along
though, if only for a few minutes for some fresh air. I am
feeling abysmal too with the shakes after a three day migraine
and a nasty chest infection (is there any such thing as a nice
one?), just will be doing my best to avoid flying buckets of
water :-\
