Ok so you have always wondered what it would be like to play Call of Duty for real. I can tell you it's really good fun. We 've been up to Laser Battlefield near Beamish on our lat Troop night of the Summer term. I have to say that the Scouts had far too much fun chasing down and shooting the leaders. Despite both of us being armed with extra powerful sniper rifles we were both well and truly shot.
