Dave,
Not only is Photoshop lacking a spell checker, it is not able to discern the subtleties of 'local' usage. Canadians don't use either word, 'regale' nor 'stand', in common conversation. It was my feeble attempt to put a 'British' spin on the description.
Thanks for clearing up the definition and usage of 'regale', although I don't think many will lavish drinks on the card bearer for one story. I also took a moment to check out 'stand' and hope I got a bit closer on that usage, too.

Could we have one with just flames and smoke for our WingCo? It's his usual state of being

Too good, Mike.
Wish I could be there to see these cards bestowed, regaled and cried over.
... especially the flamer
Ah, the Hot Fiery Death Card of Doom.
Mike, these are brilliant. Any chance of one suitably worded so we can give everyone a card for attending (e.g. "I attended Doncaster and lived to tell the tale").
Neil, I don't mind printing off and laminating some/lots of these for Donny.

Cheers Steve that would be great.

Regales's hardly in common usage here Mike, thanks largely to our education system I expect, though I did find out it also means to lavish food and drink on someone which is why I mentioned it, so, just shows we learn something every day.
As for a survival card as Steve has suggested perhaps a "I attended Doncaster without contracting something" would fit the bill ?

Very droll Steve.

And, despite the comments on the lack of subtlety, I bravely press on with my attempts...
Not sure if the "skill" icon location is the place for the mixed roundel, or if it should be a watermark behind the text. Also, I know that there are no German participants at this passage of arms, but there will be planes on the tables with the markings.
Thoughts and edits?
PS: watermarked mixed roundel

Very nice Mike. Personally I prefer the second of the two as is looks less cluttered.
Paul's rep gun is jammed but mine isn't.

I quite liked the first one, but we are a democracy after all.

Thank you Rob for posting this photo we took in the magnificent town of Newark.
It has brought back cheerful memoires of my stay.
So nice.
Funny, I have just completed my on line "check in" for the flights a moment ago.
See you soon.
