Just a few shots of the day, hired a local hall, twenty gamers appeared, beer and curry was consumed, dice were rolled, good time was had.

Nice one dude. Lots of fun had by all ;)
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

Great idea, Will. But how on earth did those big ships manoeuvre  on that little table?  :-\

Rolling table, as a ship hits an edge the table is adjusted! Chris spent a dogs age on those, they were seriously impressive!

A fantastic idea to celebrate a big birthday. I did a similar thing for my 40th, booked a hall and invited a dozen or so gamers along. We just played one huge Romano-British vs Saxon game on a 24 foot table! :D

You'd inserted the address of the image from the address bar, which would work as a weblink, but not as an image.  For sharing Flickr pics, you need to click the little box icon, with an arrow coming out of it, on the bottom right of the screen.  Then choose the 'Grab the HTML/BBCode' option, and select the 'BBCode' box underneath the image size.  A load of code starting with [url=... should appear in the box above, and you can copy and paste that load of code into your forum post over here.

Hopefully that all makes sense, and I've edited the pics into your post now.
