But, when arranging a LARP you want the forest in question to: A) Be isolated enough so the experience isn't bothered by motorways and aeroplanes all the time, but actually feels like Fantasyland, and B) That it's close enough to a human habitation, so you can actually get there in the first place. Fairly contradictory. _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
