I was going to go once for a friends birthday once, but the company booked it for one on Brighton rather than the local one. So it was cancelled. It was never re-arranged

I haven't. :/

My friend and I were going to go paintballing for one of the activity days at school last week, and then changed our minds and went to Alton Towers once we realised that it was being organized by our art teacher.

I have absolutely zero desire whatsoever to go paintballing.

Lasertag, yes...paintballing, no.
