7:30 Thursday night and 10am Friday morning
Well, it's going to be starting when the club opens at 6:30pm on Thursday, with qualifying overnight (for slow coaches/long games/good players) and finals starting around lunchtime on Friday morning (I'll get my coat)
[On a more serious note, it's in my diary, but I did wonder...]

The End of the Year Turkey Left overs PINBALL REPUBLIC Fry up

Unfortunately working between Christmas and New Year, so will have to miss this
Do we get to play all 12 rounds head to head match play format?
It's four player and across two days, so you'll play 24 games at least
Two and half weeks left until one of the greatest matchplay pinball extravaganzas in UK history - the 250% TGP End of Year Turkey Fry up at PBR... around 50 people attending so far and hopefully more to come. Think the UK top 5 are overrated? Come take ALL OF THEM on with household names like Foster, Pullen, Vince and Iles in attendance (and one other guy).
A feast of modern games and classics, all you can eat over an evening and a day of fantastic pinball action. The tournament will be worth 2.5 times the normal amount - and even better there will likely be a whopping 24 playoff qualifiers - meaning everyone has a great shot to make the big show.

Pick me up a steak bake and a couple of sausage rolls please Ben.
Anyone got suggestions of things to do in Croydon tomorrow during the day?
I assumed originally it was daytime both days so Josh and I are heading up and staying tonight
Theres a cinema and an Ikea further up the road from PBR, or get the train into central london from waddon station, it goes direct to Victoria, every 30mins I think.
You can also take a train to London Bridge and route into central London from there.
The only recent crime in Croydon I'd heard about was a private school girl being stabbed, and that was her ex-boyfriend. So, in short, the safest thing you can do in Croydon is not to fall in love

You going to miss several rounds (Half?) as I think the finals are starting middayish on Friday
What is the crime rate in Croydon 2023?
Annual crime rate in Croydon postcode area is 36.7 crimes per annum per 1000 workday people as of December 2023. Compared to the national crime rate, Croydon's crime rate is at 104%. Violent crime makes up 29.3% of all crimes reported in the postcode area.
The Metropolitan Police recorded 1,007 knife crime offences in Westminster over the past 12 months, compared to 802 in Croydon and 743 in Newham. Offences involving a sharp instrument have increased by almost 30 per cent this year in Westminster, and by 14.9 per cent just in a month between October and November 2023.
So basically more than 2 a day.
Surely there's no way the finals are going to start at midday if there's 12 rounds of qualifying to get through and only 3-4 rounds on Thursday night!
Did think about going to Chief/Brunswick but from the Premier Inn it's about an hour and a half each way, at the mercy of the rail unions, and not sure I can be bothered
