How do you fit Airsoft around work and home life?

[Lozart]

I have more issues organising all my mates to turn up than I do fitting a game around the rest of my life!

[shortman]

I work mon-fri normally, weekends are overtime and rare enough that im normally happy to earn the extra. My curret issue is im grounded! (Yep 31 and grounded!!) My gf has said no more airsoft till i finish the electrics and plumbing in the house hope im done in time for longmoor!

This is increasingly my issue..

 

There are 6 of us so its not too bad, as long as 1 other is up for a skirmish I will go not really a lone ranger type.

always a bit of a trade off, got a new job that gives me more pennies to spend of airsoft goodies, but now hardly have time to get to a game, only managed three so far this year!

I am also grounded! I've been told no more Airsoft, golf, fishing or gym until the my loft conversion is finished......

 

However i played Airsoft last night, was at the driving range tonight, 18 holes Sunday and the gym 1 hour a night, every night!

 

30 and grounded, I love it.

Since I started doing 3 Advanced Higher subjects, my life has been reduced to garden plinking... oh wait, I've been doing that for the past 5 years :/

Life / work / social life always comes first. so no time really.

Don't be silly, nobody who plays airsoft has a real social life, if we did we wouldn't be playing dress up with toy guns.

Easy there - these are REAL toy guns I tell my other half

[beastmode]

I don't have a social life so I'm good.

Airsoft being Sunday means it aint too difficult for me. My missus works a lot of Sundays so I'm usually kicked out her house with cab-fair and a lemon-scented towelette at 7am regardless. And my friends are either sensible couples who reserve the day for chores etc, or single bums who won't be conscious and out and about until late afternoon/evening anyways.

 

Gotta be hard to get a day pass if you're married with kids though.

Yes it is. I am meant to have two Sundays a month to play but that rarely happens. Wont even get one this month.

[shortman]

Im not married yet but she keeps hinting! Is hard enough getting a pass now let alone once she legaly owns my arse!

I have to work it around my daughter as I have her every 2nd weekend & my mate as I don't drive but we usually go once a month but sometimes twice. My son's are old enough to attend aswell so I take them in turns & the other one stays with my mum or dad

[joshcowin]

Well as of recent i can go whenever at weekends i work all week and and just being single i have alot more money to spend. The main problem for me is getting to the sites as i dont drive and they are out the way of buses etc

[AJWest]

Rather annoyingly my work consists of basically every weekend and the occasional few days during the week, sometimes I get sent on a job during the week with the weekends off but its rare, being on a zero hours contract I can turn down work as and when I please if I'm getting the urge to airsoft urgently however I don't particularly like doing it because that means less money
