I'll be attending the Carronade show on May 3rd.
All the usual stuff: Look at some club games, play some participation games,.
But mostly to collect an order form our favourite purveyor of 10mm goodies.
Are any other forum members attending?
How will we recognise each other to say hello?
I find it increasingly hard to describe myself, but this is a quick survey from the family:
* Male, 60 years.
* Temporarily dodgy left foot - may exhibit a slight limp.
* Light dark rainproof jacket.
* Short light hair, greying.
* Pale blue tinted spectacles.
* Almost certainly carrying a small backback for all the loot I expect.
If you see me, stop me and say hello.
Health and the bus companies permitting, I'll be at Carronade too.
Look for a six foot 71 year old with dark hair going grey, a beard, dressed in black, with a black backpack also for loot acquired, possibly peering myopically through half glasses at something he doesn't need but will buy anyway because ... Ooh! Shiny! I suffer from gout so may also be limping. Or maybe just shuffling along.
We need Pendraken pin badges or t-shirts or MAGA style hats. :-)
If either of you kids make it to Falkirk look me up in the flea market. I have loads of goodies to offer as well as a cosy chat but forgive me if you find me collapsed on the stairs.
Don't forget the white gardenia, Mike, the classical identifier! Will complement the black ensemble perfectly.
:D

If I find you collapsed on the stairs I'd off to carry you up .... but then we'd both just end up collapsed on the stairs! :)

I prefer a red carnation and a rolled copy of today's Times :)
Clearly you need a Pendraken forum "special" handshake to identify yourselves.
I'll be wearing a Pendaken shirt and a Pendraken hoodie, stood under the Pendraken flag on the Pendraken stand. Just in case you might miss me...!
He's so small it's easy to do so.

Do we know you?

It sounds as through we could almost be twins - down to our gamercore fashion choices.
Just the hair colour to distinguish us.
I wonder about wearing something distinctive.
At present I see only a headband with a pair of leopard ears - remnant of a D&D campaign.
Wandering around a show with cat ears would be silly ... so I'll contemplate something more practical.
IF you spot a baldy grey beard who is sporting far too many tattoos it'll likely be me ;)
Should several baldy tattooed grey beards be in attendance, I'm the one with F*** the World" inked across my right hand.
If you see a well dressed gentleman with cravat...
...it won't be me. Falkirk is a bit far from Bucks!
You own a cravat!
QuoteYou own a cravat!
Doubles as a facemask to repel all those MDF fumes.
Too far for me, but I would be wearing a Cold War Commanders tee shirt

Excellent! If I see someone who isn't there wearing a Cold War Commander t-shirt I'll know it's you.
:P ;D =O :-bd

"Wargamer sees something that isn't there"
