Excellent:

I've posted a small order, but can't rule out some impulse purchases while I'm browsing your wares.

Leon could you bring a couple of Austrian 1866 rocket launchers please.
Don't buy your daughters a pony, buy them heroin instead, its cheaper and ultimately less addictive.

Can you chuck that over to me by email and I'll get it printed off to be cast up.

Had a great day at Carronade, caught up with a number of familiar faces - traders and punters.

Got there around 11:30 and lasted until around 15:30. The show seemed busy and the traders I spoke to seemed to be having a good day - always a good sign.

I have around 140 pictures, which I'll post on Facebook later, set to public view (if I can remember how!), so you don't need to join FB to see them.

Lots of 28mm stuff, as usual, both trade and games.

I picked up a couple of spray cans of paint, some figures from Gyrdan (a Pugwanian Veteran, 3 induction drones , a crashed induction drone and a crashed laser drone), a pack of 10mm dogs from Pendraken and a pair of two-dial MDF damage trackers from Warbases.

Good day all round. Looking forward to next year!

Another attendee.
Very satisfying day.

Loot includes, magnetic circles, lizardmen to predate on my orc army, paint, trees, flock, gravel, a steel cutting rules, tongue dep^H^H^H^HPainting sticks, and some Maccabean Rabbis.
The latter will undergo conversion to put in a shift as Abysynnian priests.

Some nice participation games:
  A Characterful, but not particularly challenging Grail Quest (Monty Python Style) - my bad luck to NOT be waylaid by the sisters of purity.
  Podracing (with guns) - in which we mostly crashed and burned around the first turn.
  A very nice medieval hunting game - played smoothly, wonderful terrain. I never did quite catch that badger.

A good show, aided by being staged in 5 rooms and a broom cupboard, most rooms felt fairly intimate the segregation limits the problems of visitors who brought their "outdoor voices" inside with them.
Some fine traders (Pendraken best obvs.) and a few outstanding display games.

Fine bit of work Mike.
A nice record of a fine day out.

A few tables there that I don't recall seeing.
Maybe the old grey cells playing tricks, or maybe I missed a room.

Still no pictures other than first five.
