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.

Nanjing 6′s Sunday – Basher on Basher

As the Bashers slowly congregated in the lobby of the tallest and most expensive hotel in Nanjing (possibly Jiangsu) a few things became evident:

1. Filthy and Shears had not made it home to their loving wives (Fei and Squeaky contacted me about good divorce lawyers the following Monday)
2. They had paid for their lavish accommodation (floor/chair) in various ways. I personally would like a refund from Shears as his services were as good as his bowling, extremely disappointing! Sinbad & the Korean mentioned something along the same lines about Filthy.
3. Birdshit was still not happy with the hotel service and was wearing two different shoes.
4. A lot of the bashers looked in good shape and therefore had not gone rural enough the night before.
5. The Castle Bar is a real sh*thole

Nanjing 6′s Camel Bashers Lumberjack Day 1

Here you go, the one you have been waiting for! The first part of the Nanjing 6’s lumberjack.

This just covers day 1 for the Camel bashers, day 2 is being made up by Swahilli because no of us have any idea what happened apart from something to do with a glitter ball (not to be confused with Gary glitters balls) (more…)

Nanjing 6s Warm Up Drinks!

To combine with the Xiamen guys being in town we are having a rural style send off for the boys heading up to Nanjing for a rural weekend of 6′s. We are sending 2 teams up to what is looking like a great weekend.

The unbeaten Camel Bashers will be in action again.

 

While the Just Beer Bashers are hoping to make progress from a drunken performance at the Santafe 6′s.

 

Even if you are not coming away for the weekend try and get down to The Camel for around 7:00pm so you can breath in the smell of the impending ruralness!
