Well, final prep for tomorrow in hand.

Picking up my nephew from the station at 09:25 then off to the show to spend money I don't have on things I don't need :)

May bump in to some of you there!

Sadly not, it's a bit far for me. Plus, I'm off to get filthy drunk at the rugby with a bunch of mates  :D
Well that went down like a lead baboon......

Well if you spot a bald fella with a rapidly greying beard,plenty tattoos and a shirt advocating bass guitar.

That will be me ;)

Good day had by both self and nephew and less cash spent than expected (though possibly more than I should have spent!).

Good photos, I forgot a camera :-[

I also forgot to be sporting a bass playing shirt,it was hidden under a bowling shirt emblazoned with twin dragons ;)
Fact it was a day of forgetfulness,stocked up on bases from Minibits and forgot to buy more dice.

On the spending front I behaved myself quite well,no 2mm goodies anywhere so a couple of 3mm command packs were got.couple of rule books
for horse & musket bought at B&B despite owning no horse & musket figures  :) and a pack of 15mm resin walls for a fiver.

All told no a bad day,caught up with some folk and saw soon interesting games. I was going to say hello to a very tall fella from the forum but he was having a kip :o

Glad you and the nephew enjoyed your day

old smokie

* except Dave
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Seconded =D>

A good mix of ages in the attendees and quite a few "more intelligent sort of girls", to quote HG Wells ;) :)

It is quite an impressive shirt even if I say so myself  ;) Got a compliment from Dave Lanchester about it too.

Westmarcher

I dressed my age.   :P

Glorfindel

Excellent photos - thank you.

One pic nearly made me lose my cornflakes, however.   I think (god I hope)
it shows an arm not a belly.... :o

Anyway. really impressed with the effort put into the games - this certainly
encourages attendance at next year's show.

Thanks,


Phil

Worry not Glorfindel, merely an upper arm :)

The guy stepped sideways just as I took the shot and i only realised afterwards it was the only shot I'd taken of the game. I think the only game I didn't get a shot of was TFL's post-WW2 CoC* game - too busy yakking  :-[

Thanks to all for the kind remarks about the pics as a whole. I'm quite pleased given they are taken with a forty-nine quid compact in less than ideal lighting conditions!
