Turkey Left Overs Fry Up IFPA Certified Tournament 28th and 29th dec 2023 PBR

- Start date

Greenwich has *worse* crime stats. That’s the point. If he can’t walk around Croydon without being stabbed, then I should be going down to Sainsbury’s in a stab vest.
[Sorry, pet hate is talking up how dangerous places are based on statistics. Honestly, I had a wonderful time exploring Naples. Gorgeous city, definitely worth visiting. We travelled onto the Amalfi coast, kept bumping into Americans who were literally too scared to explore Naples. They’d read people talking up how dangerous it was, hadn’t dared stayed more than an hour there, got straight onto a bus
I mean, there are places in the world that are too dangerous for tourists - but that wasn’t one of them. Their loss, not mine, I suppose].
Is the planned start time of 7.30pm still valid?
We are looking forward to the comp. and don't want to miss out!
Thanks. See you all tomorrow!
All the best everyone, have a great time 
I think you’ll be buggered trying to get into the west end easily. The overground (orange) line isn’t working this week 
There might be trains on the main line to London Bridge but I wouldn’t bet on it.

Yeah, seems like a lot of hassle so will probably just hang about for the day.
If anyone ends up going to the club earlier and needs a hand moving anything about or just fancies letting us in out of the harsh, cold, wet, knife infested Croydon streets (
) then let me know and I'll happily bung some cash into the club's moving fund.
Huge thanks to Neil and his merry band of PBR helpers. What a great event. Congrats to Andy on the win and to the rest of the finalists.

Great day as always thanks to all those involved with Pinball Republic, roll on a new year and new venue
Not competed much in 2023, work and life sometimes get in the way or you want to spend your time differently... So its nice to make the effort to see your friends and play some games together, lovely to see so many people last couple of days.
Super pleased the handful of times I do play I can still qualify and at times make the finals
Couldn’t ask for a better final than with friends and also the top 3 players in the UK
Happy with my 4th place
The UK scene skill level has been rocketing over the last year or two cause of having great access to machines and also tournaments, this is why is so important to support places like Pinball Republic, Office, and Medway, SWL and anywhere else that breathes life into a niche hobby of ours
