    Perhaps a small Zep game could be in order on the day ? Bit of a thank you to the Museum for hosting us and Something the public might like to see. Only a suggestion as it is late in the day to change the running order.
    Ah how about a static vignette with a Zep and some scouts being attacked by Home defence boys ?

    A side/demo game like this would definitely attract the audience, Paul.

    I think there are more than enough Zeps floating about - we had a pop at three of them at Doncaster in 2014... just to confirm we have the room until 7:00pm on the Saturday so no rush to finish and on Friday night they will leave the keys with one of the campers so we can get in to set up early doors - so who is camping? I assume John Biggles and crew are?

    Oh and I have increased the print run on the consoles so should be enough for everyone - printed on card and laminated...

    For those undecided about their fourth game:
    somewhere in the Adriatic, a U boat is tracking a small group of merchantmen. It must surface and attack with the deck gun to sink its prey.
    The British Royal Navy have a small presence nearby, comprising surface craft, an airship and some seaplanes.
    The Italians also have aircraft in the vicinity.
    The Austro-Hungarian air forces are on hand should the U boat need assistance.
    Pilots are therefore required to fly Short 184s, Phonix D1s, an Ufag or two, the occasional Macchi M5 etc.
    your mission should you choose to accept it,
    Entente: stop me sinking the merchant men with cannon fire
    CP: prevent the entente forces sinking me

    Hi Paul,
    I'm bringing a couple of 190s and Spit IXs.
    On a similar note, does anyone have a couple of Macchi M5s or other Italian or British sea planes I could borrow, just in case I get a full table?
    FO Kyte has offered to fly a Felixstowe over, and only the one is really needed I think, but if someone wants to join in with another I won't turn them away

    I have 2 x Fw 190Ds I'm bringing along for Andrzej's game - you're welcome to borrow as well, if the sorties don't clash.

    I can also bring an as-yet unidentified number of Spitfire IXs and Mustangs; I've never used them, and can't remember how many I have!
    I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!

    Friend of mine has this business... - was wondering if any of the chaps would like one - could take orders on Friday/Saturday have then delivered to the museum on Sunday morning... pretty isn't it? large enough for most laptops.

    Super

    any chance of light blue like the T shirts...?

    ditto Rob - How much?

    Only three colours at the moment - the desert (ish) one I have, a darker brown and slate grey.
    Cost on his website is £35, but I can definitely get them at £30, maybe less if there were enough ordered, probably down to £27-28.
    He can do custom jobs as well - in fact they can put any image you like the bags just need the picture.
    Had this one done as a test but really pleased with the final outcome, hence thought I would see if anyone else wanted them - its something a bit different and of course we all need our 'man bags' in these enlightened metro sexual days lol...

    People can take a look Fri/Sat and if they want one, there is no issue with the finished article being available to take home on the Sunday...

    Going to see if I can get one done at 'mates rates' and have it as a prize for one of the games...

    Certainly better value than having to buy a plastic shopping bag every time you go to the local games store. Also much more environmentally friendly.
    I wonder if I could get a bottle of Gin and a Fire extinguisher in one?
