Aqua Springs. It may look like a warehouse[1] from the outside, but once you're inside it's a 'mediterranean themed' hedonists paradise. Hot spas, Saunas, Steam room, assorted showers (bucket, needle and ordinary), cool pool, cold plunge pool, jacuzzis, juice bar, lounging area... the works! In fact, it has everything that is needed to provide a relaxing afternoon in preparation for an evening of drinking and socialising and all the other diverse behaviour patterns that when veiwed in combination class as an afpmeet. So, the question is.... does anyone else like this idea? If so is the afternoon/early evening of July 11th a suitable date? and which pub should we go to afterwards? In case it makes a difference, admission to Aqua Springs is 5.80 per person, although if there are 10 of us we can claim to be an engagement party and get in for 3.50 each... Carol & Tap (I'd be happy to go for the sauna and then head back to Ipswich for an afpmeet at the Fat Cat or pick a pub in Colchester - if people wanted to bring kids there is a public swimming pool adjacent to Aqua Springs with things like water slides and jacuzzis so even that's not a problem) [1] No that isn't where dyslexics go to get laid -- Carol Willis http://www.afawcett.demon.co.uk/carol/ From: Carol <carol@wibble.org> Newsgroups: alt.fan.pratchett Subject: [F] Colchester Meet - afp-decadence Date: Tue, 16 Jun 1998 19:47:58 +0100 Message-ID: <3586BDDE.123B@wibble.org> Sorry folks but I seem to be loosing track here... Please could you email me if you are planning to attend this meet - (that's the one in Aqua Springs sauna complex in Colchester), if there are ten (or more) of us I will pre-book so we get a discount. For those of you who missed it first time around - this is what the original message said.....
