Happy New Year to everyone, and happy new show season!  We're only a few weeks away from the 2020 opener at Vapnartak in York and then we'll be attending a further 13 events this year!  As always, if you'd like to pre-order anything for any of these events, please make sure to let us know at least 7 days in advance!

There's a new addition to the calendar this year, as we head down to Kent for our debut at the Broadside show in Sittingbourne!  It's been a long time since we've been down this way for an event so we're hoping to hit some of those south-east customers who can't make it into Salute.  We'll also be returning to the new Glasgow show for a 2nd year, which certainly has potential.  For anyone who regularly attends the Warfare show (in Reading), you'll be pleased to know that it will be moving to a new venue for 2020, at Ascot Racecourse!  This will definitely be an improvement so we hope that folks will support it in it's new home.  

And at the end of the year, our Battleground event will be taking place on Saturday 28th November!

If life doesn't get in the way I hope to make Vapnartak, Carronade, Glasgow, Claymore and Battleground.

We'll see how many I actually get to!

I'm very unlikely to make WMMS this year due to Bump being likely to become Daughter the 2nd within about three days of it :D

Club mates will be there running Battletech: AlphaStrike so if anyone's free for half an hour bug them to shove some giant robots about!

Already looking forward to Warfare at Ascot, it's only 15 minutes down the road from me  :D

Come to Warfare, you can stay over and top-and-tail on the sofa with Will  ;)

June is a bit busy then!

Yeah, I'd not quite realised it'd be 3 weekends in a row when we agreed to Broadside!  Never mind, it's a nice little selection spread across the country.

I'm sure you can still get a few hours off to attend the show...!

It'd be great to see you if you can make it, we'll treat you to a meal somewhere nice while you're here.  McDonalds or KFC?!

Is Broadside on Saturday 13th or Sunday 14th :-/

I suspect Mrs Pixie is not as forgiving as Mi'Lady ;)

Are you sure the Pendraken coffers can be opened that far :-\

As long as Phil is happy with the £1 Saver menu, we'll be fine...!

Mrs Pixie is very definitely not as forgiving, sadly! It's hard work getting out to the club of a Wednesday evening on a normal week, awkward for even local shows, let alone when she's got a full term tiny wee one that's not so tiny threatening to drop any minute :D

A whole pound for a burger?! Surely for true magnificence you should wait till everything's marked down at closing time and get a real spread :D

Where's your sense of priorities   ;)

My eldest was born on a Friday, on the Saturday I went to a Society of Ancients day at the Tower of London all about Ancient China. Then visited the then wife and new daughter in the evening.
