Great report Herky. I was playing that Star Trek game when you took that photo so i can sort of put a face to a name now. Happy to report a stunning victory for the Federation when one of the Klingon Warbirds got caught between two Constellation class ships in a manoeuvre Nelson would have been proud of, and blew up! It was glorious. Thanks to Stu for the invite as we have the game at home and i needed motivation to get it painted up. Also thanks to the lads from the Newbiggin club for helping out with the setup as, due to conveniently planned holidays, house moves, injuries and general malingering we were a bit shorthanded this year! The traders seemed happy and Warlord have asked to come back next year and will be warmly welcomed of course. With Caliver back next year from a bit of an enforced absence due to their move of premises and its fair to say the show is growing nicely. Hopefully we can entice more people to put games on too. |

Yes a very good day, I was the guy handing out immortal fliers, wish I had of had time to watch the games or take part. Maybe next time |

Thank you. It was on my list this year but got squeezed out, so I appreciate the chance to check out your photo's |

Missed it for the first time in years due to careless holiday scheduling.
(I do think we should all 'support our local'.) Glad everybody had a good time! Maybe I should undertake to spend double next year… only seems fair. |

Sorry you missed it. Should we charge you double the entry fee next year? |

Ruddy heck, you're keen!
It's a shame nobody on MH370 had missed a week's subs, you'd have found them by now. |
