Afraid I will be calling in to Colours on the way to Devon where I will be all week. Got to keep the misses happy so she gets her annual horse-ride on the beach.

Les,

I think many of us are going to Follow the Pig to Newbury on Saturday.

The Model expo  does not seem to include any wargaming?
Diid they drop that option?

A friend is doing this gaming exhibit.

Friends who like Rapid Fire WW2 Wargame Rules

But not much else, do not know who the coordinator is.  There seems to be lots of modelling clubs.

Anyone here  went to it??

I went to London, Wembley Arena to see 3 bands instead, hence why I didn't go to Colours either.
Bad timing on Bovington's calendar to clash with one of the Wargames Premier shows ! If they were serious about doing Wargames?

Colonel Kilgore

That's a good point, Miles - I'm guessing it wasn't on Bovi's radar.

Hope you had fun at Wembley!

Bovington did ask me to run the wargames part for the day but I declined on the grounds that most of the traders would be at Colours.
I told them they should move back to July but the events manager wants wargames and models together.

Stewart

Colonel Kilgore

Thanks for the explanation, Stewart - that's interesting. I guess the Bovi events manager may be repeatedly disappointed if this is how things are scheduled...

They certainly are a strange lot. When Dave and I go down for the Tiger Days there are always complications (not saying they are caused by the Museum staff), but when we do TankFest it all runs smoothly. Bizarre.
