You have time for LUNCH !!  :o  ;)

Sometimes!  Adele was with us at this one, so each of us were able to take a bit of time away from the stand for some grub.

I think he was SK on one or two occasions, but we went to ECWS as a family quite a lot when I was younger.

Glad you had a good day Ithoriel, although apologies for missing you when you came by the stand, I think I'd popped out for some lunch.

At least I managed a quick word when I arrived and also had a chance to talk to Adele when I picked up the stuff from the stand. Had hoped to at least manage a "hello" to Dave but when I got there he was lost behind a wall of wargamers ... OK it was only three guys ... but they were all built like me, so more than enough to qualify as a wall :-)

 ;D  ..... and a yellow checked scarf (and looked like a bear)?

Although there was a guy at the 54mm game (I think?) who was dressed rather eccentrically ..... but I don't think it was a Dave. Can't recall exactly, but I think Dave was wearing something dark .......  :-S

By the way, what annoyed me was that I wandered around with a Westmarcher name tag .... and no-one from the Forum said hello.  

OK. I made that last one up .... but I did think about it ..... but couldn't find any sticky labels (they were in the drawer when I looked ..... years ago). But, heh! Why don't we all do that when visiting future shows? Instead of wearing dragon T-Shirts, ladies clothing or Dr. Who scarves, etc. - although maybe that could be more fun?
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Well I posted that I would be at Phalanx on the LWA stand wearing a Lance and Longbow polo shirt, but it had little effect.

Cheers Scolty, see you again next year? (my autocorrect seems determined to call you Scotty - it's beyond the laws of physics!)

"Scotty, take the lift down to the engine room." 

"Aaww, but Captain, it's awfy heavy."

Not sure which episode - perhaps a trekkie can oblige?

Back to Scottish shows - shame about Forfar - next show will be Kirriemuir which seems to be going from strength to strength.

No, it was very useful. We knew where to avoid.  :P
