Is there a Peter Pig presence planned for Attack, in a couple of weeks time...?

Hello Martin
Thanks for the nice thought.

I don't really do any shows anymore as my health makes it too much effort.
I have 3 hospital visits planned for this week (injections).

Devizes must be one of the longest running shows on the calendar.
I remember Jeff Mascal(Club organiser ?) and the Baileys as regulars there.
The Guild hall(?) was alway jolly hot and crowded on those lovely weekends.

Good wishes to al that do make the effort to go.

Perfectly understandable, martin!! Good luck with the medical folks 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼.

Despite it being only an hour and a tad away, this'll be my first visit.  (I suspect school hols type stuff used to interfere, 'back in the day').
Someone's running a DBA event there, which should be a laugh. My army has some Alexandrian rioters, made with PP peasants throwing rocks and sticks from the ancients range.

Devizes was one of the first shows Pjil Barker brought his DBA too.
One 2x2 green scenery tile.

Getting old allows more looking back.
Those good old days (?)

Ah, but the thing about nostalgia is that it's not what it used to be......🙃
