We'll be there as Circle, running a participation game of... something... not sure what yet, might be WW2 coastal, might be 10mm Twilight of the Sun King, might be Black Ops or Song of Blades.

I've short cut that by just sorting it, usually :D

Although this year for Wargamer it was different - John said he wanted to play Black Ops so we did :D

Quite refreshing!

WMMS show 2018 is on Sunday 18th March, surely?

Or is this just a test? Did I win?!


I'm pencilled-in to be working on the Colonel Bill's stand, if there's Forum members at the show.

I'll come across at some point and say hello, toxicpixie. Can't miss me. Ginger-haired and wearing a Col. Bill's polo shirt.

They'd be brave putting it on on Mothering Sunday!

They've moved it back a weekend this year due to the venue being booked up, so it is indeed the 18th!  I'd already booked our hotel for the 11th as well, so if anyone wants a night in Wolverhampton on Saturday 10th, give me a shout!

Wyre Forest club will be there doing a game set in Ireland in 1690 with the Twilight of the Sun King rules, unfortunately not 10mm :(

Yeah, there doesn't seem to be much there!  We looked at the local tourist attractions to see if we could take the kids down for a day out, but we didn't find anything suitable.

Black Country Museum is about half an hour away, or there's a bunch of National Trust stiff like Wightwick Manor, or the RAF Museum at Cosford.

Dunno what Wolves night life is like anymore, it all ended with the death of the Dorch IMO ;)

I'm off to see my Mum on Friday lunch time so I can report if the city centre is a ghost town or Mad Max if needed...

We're there on the 18th, Black Ops, Circle Wargames. Hopefully with enough minions I can do more than hare round the hall once :D

Cosford is well worth a visit (they even have a Centurion  :-$)

Used to go out a bit in Wolvo as a young man and saw a lot of gigs at the Wulfrun, great days  8->

Not sure I'd hazard a night out there now!

Oi !  Thats my home town you're knocking you cheeky so and so    ;)

I have to admit though, I don't tend to visit the town centre when
there's a full moon...

I haven't been out in Wolves for a night for, errr, probably a decade plus. Actually, probably close to fifteen years...

It's mostly my home or at least formative town, but it's heyday was gone well before then.

Except for WMMS, that's awesome ;)

And I'll make allowances for my family, I guess  :P

I think that's the same in a lot of places now, we've not been for a night out in Middlesbrough in about 12 years I think.  We go for a couple of drinks after the staff Christmas party each year, but that tends to be one or two of the quieter pubs away from the main boozing areas.
