SUP in Bristol and Bath.
The last time I played I played Laser Tag was as a kid in the early 90’s, so I was in for a few surprises when we went along to ICOMBAT in Bristol recently for a game. ICOMBAT now offer a Laser Tag game with true replica weapons […]
Sledging is one of those sports that everyone knows about in the UK, and probably had a go at when they were kids, but are never ready for when the few days of snow settle. Unless you live on higher ground or more to the north these snowy […]
