What a lovely typo. :lol: :lol:

I hope the fans liked Steve's song. ;)

Sounds that the Forum meet was a very small one. But I'm sure all there had a great day. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Hope I will make it to Salute 2013 :roll:

I've just got back after driving down. An excellent day! Can't wait for those Perry 8th Army plastics, of which I have photos, but you've seen them now. The Warlord stand was great! Couldn't get near to the P&S game. Well, I got to take some pics but not join in.

I tried several times to get a go on the BA game and totally forgot that Steve was running it or I'd have bullied him into letting me have a go. More importantly, because of my forgetfulness and him being so busy, I didn't get to speak to him either! :oops: Sorry Steve!

SP - I missed meeting you too. :x

I did meet Big Mike and his delightful partner, Undave and Zuckuss, of course, who kindly gave me a Tufty badge to go with my Warlord Forum ID badge :D These will now be regular show regalia! I will upload the photos a little later because I am tired, need a drink and a little food too! :lol:

I'm well pleased with Warlord's previews,
Caesarian Romans in plastic are long overdue.
Peninsular French are great as well.
But the BEST is what I've seen on Wojtek's table, nearly missed it but noticed he was happily scaling away on a 3up of a Russian wearing a forage cap.
Because of my general excitement it took a while for me to realise we will have a plastic Crimean War range soon (ish).
Now even my wife (when she sees our next bank statement) cannot wipe the smile off my face..!!!
I'm in heaven.

Thanks Warlords, you rock!

Cheers

SP

Terrific photos Al.

Really dig the plastic Russian WW2 3ups.

Also, the Very British Civil War game looked like a ton of fun. The Pike & Shotte game was colorful looking too.

And - there was BEER on a table! Never see that over here. Licences and such. BEER!

:lol: :lol: Those beer bottles were mock Molotov cocktails, Grant! The chap told me that he'd made the journey praying that the police wouldn't stop him. It's the London Marathon tomorrow and security was tight. He spent the trip working out how he was going to explain all the weaponry in his car had they stopped and searched him! :lol: :lol: :lol:
