2012 Nanjing 6′S – Living the Rural Dream!

The date is set, the disco ball has been dusted off and its time for the Bashers to board the train to Nanjing!

Put Saturday June 9th in the diary. The Bashers will be putting in 2 teams as usual.

The plan is to head down to Nanjing on Friday 8th after work to acclimatise to our rural surroundings and enjoy the warm and hazy hospitality of Jimmys. The action starts early on the Saturday morning with a great line up of 6′s talent. Our friends from the Pudong Power and the Xiamen Typhoons will be joining us along with the Bogans and Nongmin to round out what will be a great day.

There will be the option to head back on the saturday evening if you are involved in the SCC game on the Sunday but otherwise we will be enjoying the Saturday night in Nanjing and heading back to Shanghai early afternoon on the Sunday.

This is a great event and was enjoyed by all last year.

The hotel will be around 600rmb a night for a twin room. Please bring along friends and family but let me know so we can organise the train and hotel.

Please post availability below. Hopefully we should be primed for this 6′s coming of the back of the league 6′s a couple of weeks earlier.

Live the Rural Dream!

Xiamen Tour 2011

———————UPDATE 2————————-

Ok boys and girls, lets get this moving. We need to start getting flights and hotels nailed down. If you haven’t posted your interest below already do it in the next week.

You just need to cover the flights up front and then everything else is settled up when we’re down in Xiamen. Flights are just under the 2000rmb mark right now.

Don’t really need to say again how good this trip is but i will anyway!

The guys at the Bogans are literally as wet as an otters pocket about this weekend and have good numbers committed already so we need to man up and commit.

Its basher time!

———————UPDATE————————-

I am just bumping this back out to everyone to remind you that we need to start getting firm commitment for this tour so we can work on the travel and accommodation. Please add to the comments if you are up for this great tour!

Its back, the bashers event of 2010 is shaping up to be bigger and better than last year!

The Typhoons have confirmed Saturday 29th October for their Sixes. A 6 team event (inc two Bashers teams and the Bogans) and Bashers also been challenged to take on the Typhoons at Baseball in a special challenge and a offer of 30 over game on the Friday for anyone wanting an extra day on Gu Lang Yu. Also this co-incides with Xiamen’s end of year beach ALL NIGHT Halloween party on 29th.

The hotel will be Asia Gulf although possible option to stay on Gu Lang Yu on the Friday night in one of the cool hotels there, garden party in the grounds of one of the old houses  and slowly drift into the land of Zen as most people on the island do on a Friday. Saturday lunch option for the Geishas at the Swire house like last year. Families welcome.  As usual Typhoons superb hospitality the whole time.  If Bashers want their own blimp flying high above Gu Lang Yu need about a months advance notice.

Also Sinbad will receive his honorary Typhoons award for still being the only person from Shanghai in any sport that has drunk through the night with the Typhoons on their turf.  Travel logistics definitely not my area so I think Latex will start sorting out things out with Committee etc although Dags offer of a plane charter sounds interesting with Cranky and/or Woodstock at the controls.

Please note interest below and we will get things in line over the next month or so.
