Anyone going?

I'll be there unless the NHS wants to adjust my inner workings again.

I will be there.
Our club, Redcar Ironbeards are doing a 28mm ancient battle at the show and hopefully I'll get some time to chat with people

:D :D :D

I'll be there helping to run the Falkirk Club's Sharp Practice French & Indian War game. You should come over and roll some dice.

Jealous of you guys up north with so many decent shows withing bow range :(
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

Well the area has been described by the politicians as the "Northern Powerhouse" but I don't think they meant wargaming  ;D ;D ;D ;D

I'm in Edinburgh so I get to Claymore, Carronade in Falkirk, Albanich in Dumfries, Skelp in Forfar, Targe in Kirriemuir, Border Reiver in Gateshead, Battleground in Middlesbrough, Vapnartak in York and Phoenix in Cumbria. These are mostly within 2 hours drive but a couple are around 4 hours.

I don't get to the 'big shows' like Salute, Colours, Triples or any of the Partizans. You can see why I don't need to.

I also usually go to Crisis in Antwerp each year (8 times in the last 12 years) so I do get to one 'big show'. Nice beer there.

Yes, it was. I've been tied up ever since, been to two parties, Sat and Sun, Hospital on Monday, home today.

Might blog something later.

Thanks for the link, Jim (and to Herkybird). Loads of photos.

Not that I know anyone down there (or anywhere) however I did recognise one gamer, Slimreidy's "arch-enemy" - his dad(!) (in the Dave Lanchester Books photo).
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
