    Have a brilliant time Rob. I am also away, the good lady wife has finally persuaded me to cross the pond. So am off to New York (don't worry have already been on to the US forum asking for the best games stores in the city) for the best part of a fortnight (I have renewed my gym membership to coincide with my return, lol). Once back the countdown to Doncaster begins.....

    Rob, what a wonderful photo account of your time.

    Is that a little pipe action going on in the first photo?

    Thank you for posting.

    You spotted the pipe Eric! Unfortunately not lit, because of the English Law prohibiting smoking in enclosed public places.

    props to the photo-journalist Rob - will she be doing a version in oil & canvas ?!

    Mrs K expresses her thanks for your kind words Dave, but says it it is more likely to be rendered as an embroidery than in oils.

    Thumbs up

    That looks like great Fun Rob!
    I always wanted to get involved in American Civil War Games but the only active group was in South Australia which was a bit far to travel!

    Had to make do with a bit of fun down on the farm with some mates from the pistol club.
