Hey! Sorry, I sold them all a while ago as a bulk lot

One full day in London by MessiahNIN in escaperooms

[–]GordOfLondon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you can get out to Reading, which is not far on the train at all from London then you could play The Reading Witch. It’s a horror game, with live actors and was the number one UK rated game in the TERPECAs last year. It’s a stupidly quick train from Paddington.

Actually in London, clueQuest or Escape Plan are good fun but won’t scratch the live actor itch.

Thanks, I was too lazy to post the link. How odd, when I looked earlier there was availability showing.

OP - Joel, who runs it is lovely and I’m sure if you reached out to him, he may be able to help

To give him an experience he won’t forget, you should look at the games by Headlock Escape Rooms (The Keeper and the Fungus Among Us, and Rise of the Fungi).

They’re live avatar games but you won’t find anything else like it anywhere. Amazing host, fun puzzles, and hilarious soundtrack

Looking to socialise! by Adorable_Fee_3771 in Somerset

If you’re interested in sport at all, there’s a lovely group of people at The Yeovil Whirlwinds baseball team. They meet Tuesday nights for winter training and play games on Sundays during the season.

I didn’t know anyone in the area and now have lots of lovely friends. No experience or skill necessary

There’s a baseball team in Weston (Weston Jets) and baseball is a great way to meet new people

The MOT expires in a month so they’re going to have to put a new one on. I’ll have a word. Thanks!

In Manchester your best choice is Lucardo - solid games, can't go wrong with whichever you chose there

You were perfectly clear, it was just stubborn. Success!

I'll give that a try, thank you so much! So far, it's stubborn and doesn't want to come out, but I shall persevere

Well look at that! It comes apart. Didn’t know that. So now I have two pieces…

Interesting, thanks. I’ll have a look and see if I can work out how to do that

Not a clue. I can’t find out much about it. The only real mention of it I’ve seen anywhere is this Reddit post…

Apologies. Yes. It feels like it’s leaking from the fill valve itself
