The Sims 2 Free Time Community Day

Baker011 · 29-12-2007, 09:38 PM

Hi Guys,

We will be holding a community day for Free Time in our Chertsey office on January 14th. This will consist of a presentation from the games producer and a chance to play the game for the rest of the day (taking a break for a lunch....on us)! You will also get chance to meet Omni and myself too. At the end of the day you are welcome to join us for a few drinks and meal.

If you would like to come along then just send me a PM and I will confirm some final details with you. Please note there are limited spaces so those who are not confirmed will not be able to attend. You also need to be 16 or over.

It should be a great day and I hope to see you there

May I ask, where the heck is Chertsey?

SchnoodlePlayer · 29-12-2007, 10:33 PM

That's just what I was thinking.

Not that I could go anyways.

Baker011 · 29-12-2007, 10:36 PM

So inconvenient

I would have to endure a 10 hour round trip if I went

Graeme · 29-12-2007, 10:42 PM

10 hours? i live in scotland and it would probably be less than that... i thought you were english?

By the way, thats on my birthday so i hope you'll all be thinking of me.

Well I recently went to London and it took about 4.5 hours.

This is a bit forther so add an extra half hour and that's 5.

Multiply by 2 and you got 10.

Baker011 · 29-12-2007, 10:48 PM

I used to live in the North East of England and it takes me about 4-4.5 hours to get down to the office, or back up north. Its a 2 hour train journey to london though

It's still not ideal unfortunately for me, as much as I'd love to attend.

Baker011 · 29-12-2007, 10:53 PM

We are looking at other venues for future events, Birmingham being one since its middle of the country. So I am sure there will be one you can make

Tom · 29-12-2007, 10:54 PM

can't go only 14

Becky · 29-12-2007, 10:54 PM

Wish I could go.

But I also have a problem with travel. It takes me about four hours to get to London.

Sheffield, on a Sunday afternoon and you're looking at a winner

"all round trip" makes sense to be now...

i'm going to bed.

coolandme87 · 29-12-2007, 11:01 PM

You deliberately arranged that on the date of my critical thinking module! *gasp*

Either way, I don't think my parents would be happy about me skiving off college in order to go.

Ah well... the sacrifices I must make for education.

gracie249 · 29-12-2007, 11:32 PM

It's the day of my geoscience exam, so I couldn't go. No way I'd manage to get from Scotland in time seeing as the exam finishes 11.30am. Pity it wasn't three days later when my exams are over.

The_Doctor · 29-12-2007, 11:35 PM

I'd have love to have come down but as im in Doncaster its too long.

lilmidgeb · 29-12-2007, 11:48 PM

i wish i could go i'm in surreyish aswell

Which is why they should have one in Sheffield

Graeme · 30-12-2007, 12:30 AM

Just throwing it out there, as a suggestion... like.

Why do people keep telling me this? Birmingham is nowhere near "the middle".

It's not near the middle, is it. Leicester for example is much more central.

limabifrost · 30-12-2007, 12:59 AM

Yeah nyaren, you're right, Birmingham's not central, it's really northern! :P Haha, you can always count on a southerner to think they're central to the world.. I'd love to come along, hopefully i'll be free but i'm up at Uni so instead of it being an hour round-trip it'll be 5 pfft. I'll have to check my exam date and see. Fingers crossed!

The middle of England perhaps, not the UK though...
