NOTE: Where a slot has 2 spaces disregard the split cell should be 1 space not 2.

4 attendees have given no preferences for game slots, yet.
1 attendee has only given 2 game slot choices.

11 members still to confirm attendance.

So where games look devoid of players they will fill up.

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

A little more info on each game:

WW1
Combat Patrol:
That early morning, or any time of the day really, combat for control of the skies.

Photo Recon:
2 seaters head out to photograph targets and try not to be shot down in the process. (2 seater mayhem similar).

Bomb the target:
Once those photo's have been developed it's back out to bomb them and rack up more points.

Spare parts required:
Combat in the air with a naval twist.

WW2
Battle of Britain:
Opposing squadrons fight it out as the Germans try to bomb London and the RAF try to stop them amid the chaos of the Battle of Britain. All early war stuff I believe.

Sino-Japanese War becomes Coral Sea!:
Apologies for the change of venue so to speak. The US carrier aircraft have to try and sink the IJN Ryuju and escorting destroyer before they can get off the table. All in 1/200 scale. (simplified altitude, torpedoes, dive bombers and did I mention float planes...slipped that one in for fun).

Beaufighter:
Lots of action involving Beaufighters. Sworn to secrecy with this one but it will be a doozie!

Lancaster Raid:
Lancasters escorted by Spitfire IX's (and possibly a mosquito or 2?) try to bomb Germany as the Luftwaffe flying FW190's, ME109K's, ME 262's etc try to stop them.

Sails of Glory:
Fleet Action: 2 opposing fleets slug it out for control of the seas. (Standard rules)

Pirates: Some old favourites on the table, The Black Pearl et al contest treasure, boarding and lots of Arghhhhhh m'hearties to boot. (Standard rules)

Frigate Racing: Around the ragged rocks the gallant Frigates raced. Who will win, will dirty tricks and back stabbing come to the fore. Standard rules)

Mystery Fleets: A blind draw not only for ships but Captain and crew skills not to mention what side your on. (Advanced rules).

Ace of Aces:
Same as last year. Eveyone attending, one table, random sides and opposition (pilots).

[FLt Brown]

Do you have a date for all this wonderful stuff?

[Nightbomber]

Table 2 for all the Sat games if you please, Neil.
Beaufighters game details will be posted tomorrow.
8 players is a perfect number (5/3) [more may be welcome if interested], although less (like 6-7) may be quite all right too.
The game's title is " The Black Friday", for those who may be interested;).

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Most certainly:

Friday 30th September
Saturday 1st October
Sunday 2nd October

Air Museum Doncaster. If you follow the 2016 thread you'll get most if not all the info.

I take it you are coming?

Do you have a date for all this wonderful stuff?

[Rebel]

Hi Neil Book me a slot for the Beaufighters Game please. I can supply 2 x MK.I and 1 x MK.VI if needed.
Reg

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Bring them along Reg, Andy might have need of them, possibly Paul too.


Hi Neil Book me a slot for the Beaufighters Game please. I can supply 2 x MK.I and 1 x MK.VI if needed.
Reg

[Nightbomber]

If Reg is so kind and bring them - it will be super fine. I will have 1-2 of mine Mk. VI anyway (recently developed a way to carry them in a small box):).

[Guntruck]

Neil, can you put me down for table 2 on Saturday please?

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

I'm sure Rob has a couple to Andy.

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Done and dusted Steve.

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Reg are you only playing 1 game?


Hi Neil Book me a slot for the Beaufighters Game please. I can supply 2 x MK.I and 1 x MK.VI if needed.
Reg

[Nightbomber]

BLACK FRIDAY the Beaufighters' game.
With this scenario we are going to recreate the attack on Z-33 German destroyer that took place on 9 Feb 1945.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Friday_(1945)

Not intending to reveal the details of the scenario, here is what you will get:
1. Beaus plus P-51s as escorts are tasked to find the Z-33 and destroy it.
2. German Fw-190 interceptors are somewhere there on lookout.
3. Z-33 and an accompanying z-boat are to be found and destroyed.
4. Waypoints and spotters/or/snipers abilities will have to be assigned by the teams before the mission starts as well as altitude.
5. The first to spot the enemy, the first to attack.
6. Flights are restricted: Beaus are tasked to hit the vessels only. P-51s provide protection. Beaus have to find the vessels, destroy them and make for home.
7. Explosions: houseruled. Beaus hit or miss: zero counters return to appropriate bags.

6-10 players are welcome.

[Rebel]

Andy I have a couple of Z models in 1:700th scale if you need them.

[Rebel]

Reg are you only playing 1 game?

No, put me down for the Photo Recon and the B17's please.
Thanks Neil

[Nightbomber]

Andy I have a couple of Z models in 1:700th scale if you need them.

If you do not mind, Reg. I have some Axis and Allies WaS minis that I use in my games, but yours are probably more accurate.:)

[johnbiggles]

Hi Neil,
At the moment I have no idea what the Biggles ladies will want to play, although Amy tends to be exclusively WW1.
Hannah might want to be with BoB, or any game she can fly her Roland in.
SWMBO is WW1 or Sails.
I am possibly in danger of Sails, being drawn to things Piratical, Beaufighters sounds fun, and I would like to be on Dawn Patrol unless someone needs help with BoB.
I will try to get clarification from the ladies later today.

[Rebel]

If you do not mind, Reg. I have some Axis and Allies WaS minis that I use in my games, but yours are probably more accurate.:)

No problems Andy. Just thought it might ease your hand luggage capacity.
I look forward to playing the game.

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

NP John let me know when you can.

[tikkifriend]

Neil is the B17 game at 16.20 T2 a typo for my raid on Hamburg with Lancs ,?

[tikkifriend]

Right I fancy Combat patrol , Pirates AAAAH and Andy's Beaufighters.
Obviously my Lancs game as well.

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Apologies Paul I forgot to change the B17 to Lancs.

Timings firm. I just put games down as they came up.

[Rebel]

No, put me down for the Photo Recon and the B17's please.
Thanks Neil

I see that the B17's have morphed into Lancasters but that's fine with me.

[tikkifriend]

MMh an interesting concept . Anyone got a couple of 17's to play with?

[johnbiggles]

NP John let me know when you can.

Ok,
The Young ones are going for WW1, Ruth is uncertain, so put her down for the same as me

[Rebel]

Neil
Are we anywhere near knowing numbers signed up for the games or is it a bit early?

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

I think Chris (Boney10) was going to put on a sails game. I'm up for anything.

[tikkifriend]

Looking good for the Hamburg raid :thumbsup: 10 would be ideal :pray:

[Embis]

Table 1 for me all day please.

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Post 34 updated.

[Maverick]

Hi Neil

As small numbers for sails so far...:(

If Chris runs game 1 - please put me down for BoB

If Ensign Patch runs the pirates game 2 - Chris can get to play on a table

and if no takers for sails games 3 & 4 - perhaps we can join in other tables?

or

Perhaps I can have a go at trying to blow Chris out of the water for a change!
Well there has to be a first time for everything...doesn't there?:hmm:

Flexibility as always...

Mav...

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Simon will your son be attending? I had not included him on the list I think. If so that's 1 more attendee. Fantastic news.

Now if everyone else who hasn't, does, we can let games organisers know how many to cater for.

So come on you lit. Fingers out. Start tapping the keys and let us know....pretty please?

[Maverick]

Hi Neil

Regret Andy will not be with us

Just me

Regards

Mav

If Tim can run the final WW1 game of the day - I would love to take part in the Lancaster raid... (space permitting)

and would love some Sails on Sunday afternoon

[Hedeby]

I can supply a few things for Friday night (depending on table sizes at the St. Leger) Carcassonne, Zombiecide, Escape from Colditz, Kingmaker, etc etc... or even a few planes, lol

[Rebel]

I've probably missed something in translation (remember I am a Southerner) but is Friday evening just at the pub not at the Museum?
Where is the Pub?
What time Saturday morning at the Museum; remember I am running an early game?
Where is the Restaurant for Saturday evening?

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

We are hoping to get in for 0830 Saturday Reg. Pub for Friday is the St Ledger where most if not all travellers are staying .
The Sat evening meal is the pub attached to the Premier Inn about 5 minutes walk up the road from the museum. Doncaster East? Or West? I'm sure Chris will keep me right.

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

I of course will bring Bang.

Would that be The Grand St.Leger Hotel or the St.Leger Tavern?

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Grand St Ledger.

[Embis]

Sorry, have to announce my withdrawal from Doncaster, I have double booked a trip to London with Mrs B. Much marital disharmony would ensue if I were to DNA. Quite how I managed to do this I am not sure and my sincere apologies to all.
(Border Reiver I am good for, double checked that!!)

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

NP Mark. See you at Border.

[Brambo]

Hi Neil, sorry for the delay, I've just got back from my hols.

Saturday

Table 3 - Fleet Action
Table 1 - Photo Recon - Bomb the Target - Parts Urgently Required
If any of them are full I'm happy to play on any table.

I will be making the meal, do I have to contact them and book it? I'm not sure what the process is.

Unfortunately I can only make Saturday now as I'm going to the Derby Wargames on the Sunday with my Grandaughter.

Cheers
Trev

It will great to see you there Trev. :thumbsup:
Paul

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Trev great news. Don't worry about meal we just need numbers confirmed.

[Nightbomber]

Excellent idea, Chris!
Carcassonne is the one I know well.
Kingmaker - would be sweet, however I played a computer version only years ago.:)
The number of potential players is the key question, however. Most of the game are up to 5...
Pssst! What I dream about is to test you chaps in X-Wing which scales quite fine up to 8 players (tested) in a typical clash between X/W vs T/F, but a table over 90*90 cm is necessary and --- I am not sure if you are ready for such an experience, knowing the hated dice issue;).

[tikkifriend]

Kingmaker is always a good choice for me. Anyone got Settlers of Catan that they can bring along?

[tikkifriend]

Neil when you get the final names for my Hamburg raid can you pm them to me so I can forward them a brief and allocate planes. Ta.

[Guntruck]

Kingmaker is always a good choice for me. Anyone got Settlers of Catan that they can bring along?

Reminds me of the Big Bang Theory episode where they were playing Settlers of Catan, with Sheldon repeating "I need wood, anyone got wood?" :D

[tikkifriend]

:lol: :lol: up for a game then Steve ?

[Boney10]

Kingmaker, brilliant game, especially with a group of friends and a few beers. Played many a game on our barrack room balcony in Cyprus in mid 70's drinking cockaneli. The Avalon Hill version was as good but preferred the original

[tikkifriend]

Got the Gibson games original but it will not fit in the Ryanair luggage

[Hedeby]

Got two versions - I can rock up with either - may as well fill the car boot and see what people want to do whilst downing a few beers

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Not played KM but I'm up for a challenge.

[Nightbomber]

Settlers of Catan :thumbsup::D.

[Nightbomber]

When other possible boardgames are taken into consideration, please bear in mind this one ;), "Rebellion", that my buddy Darek (Empire) and me (Rebel) have just started yesterday.
After 5 turns there are only 3 systems left that actively support the Rebellion (Bothawui, Toydaria and Nal Hutta).

204813

Han Solo has been captured by the Imperials and carbonized on Mustafar. A rescue mission carried out by young Skylwaker failed...

204814

But a major rebel pincer operation is about to begin with reinforced fleet starting in Bothawui and a the major force launching from our hidden base on Geonosis (yes!). The Imperial forces in Naboo and Sullust systems are weak and will be subject to some sabotage missions.:slysmile:.

204816

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Oh that looks good Andy. Not played that one either nor Catan. Up for anything and drink.

[Guntruck]

KM or Catan will do me.

[tikkifriend]

PM nightbomber and tikkifriend as they are running those games.

Are you sure this is correct as the Grid in a previous post (#92) has 5 names entered for the B o B game for instance but only 3 on this latest list?

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Reg these are the spare slots for each game for player to put their names down for.

[Rebel]

Whoops!
Just goes to prove the old saying. "Read the question fully before you attempt an answer!".

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

I'm going to pm all the games organisers to plan for 8+1 ie 8 players and 1 playing organiser. With those yet to pick some if not all the spare slots will be taken.

It's the best I can do without the 5 telling me which games they want to take part in. So for the remaining slots it's first come first served. Sort the rest out on the day.

[tikkifriend]

:thumbsup:

[Nightbomber]

All right chaps.
Those who have signed for the Beaufighters Game (and all otheres interested of course:)) may get the rules of engagement early before Donnie:
Below is a link to a downloadable mission sheet in .pdf from my digi-loud.
Do not be put off by the one die used in preliminary phase (suspense) and the rules, I promise to follow them:).
The rules have been changed slightly after playtesting, so it is version 1.2.
Any questions are welcome.

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BxzMwcp0O5-ANGhEQ3NMRVFSYkU&usp=sharing

I will be just mastering the game, not necessarily playing it by myself, for the comfort of the others.

Andy,
a Minor Ally.

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

So far no word off 4 and the fifth has put himself down for 2 , games only. To make this fair for organisers tables will max out at 8+1 organiser.
The few who have not put names to slots will just have to fill in when and where on the day.

Neil

So far I have 2 Luftwaffe pilots for the Hamburg raid. No Brilcream boys yet in either bomber or fighter command, or a solo Yank for a B 17

[Rebel]

I'll take a Lancaster if I may Paul but I stopped using Brylcreem about 50 years back and I'm not starting again for anybody. Does that disqualify me?

[tikkifriend]

Reg you will be pleased to know that you will have 2 Lancasters to fly on the day. Chris (Hedeby) has the other flight.
As for the Brycream that is optional on the day :)

[tikkifriend]

So far the players for the Raid on Hamburg are as follows

RAF/USAF
Lancs . Hedeby and Rebel 2 planes each.

Lufwaffe

Places full
Nightbomber Guntruck and Skafloc. 2 planes each

So Deadly M and Hawkhurst have the choice of 3 planes each Allied fighter cover. Thats Spits IX and P 51s

unless someone desperately wants to play the B17 it will be retired from the roster as of today.

[Nightbomber]

Chaps,

version 1.3 (small changes) of the Beaufighters game is available via the link you can find in my previous post.:)

[tikkifriend]

Gotcha Andy

[Boney10]

Are my two B-25 and B17 still needed for Doncaster ?

Also do I need to bring any mats or aircraft for WW1, I got some Roland Fighters, Pups, Strutters and Seaplanes?

[tikkifriend]

[Nightbomber]

Chris, do you have any sea like mats that you could bring? I do not have in mind the SoG mats which are so to say SoG oriented, but just a plain dark blue, grey or similar?
I own a custom one, but not sure if I can fold it into my cabin luggage (probably will succeed anyway).

[Boney10]

Hi Andy, I have a blue table covering I now normally used for my sails games.
If you need I can liaise with Simon to replace my sea with his covering, this will leave it for you to use.
Ill talk to Simon and let you know

[Nightbomber]

Thanks in advance, buddy!

[Flying Helmut]

I also have two large 'Dunelm' sea mats, which I use for WW1 and WW2 naval games

NO SAILS!!!!!

I can bring them if needed - just let me know.

Just as an intro for my game:

Coral sea 1/200 scale
During the attack in the Coral Sea one of the smaller Japanese carriers suffered engine failure and was unable to take part in the failed attack. Admiral Yamamoto, not wanting to lose another carrier, dispatched the destroyer IJN Inedikazi to find the IJN Nosho.


The destroyer has been spotted by the air group from the USS Yorktown and they proceed to follow the ship, hoping it would lead them to the fleeing Japanese fleet.

US Players (5 max)
Your task is to sink any Japanese ships in the area.

The SBD dive bombers are equipped with 3 bombs each.
The TBD bombers may have 3 bombs or 1 torpedo each.

Japanese Players (3 max):

You are flying aircraft from IJN Nosho, you must protect all Japanese ships in the area.

[Hedeby]

As a teaser for my game - going to play with a few additional rule tweaks as we all know what we are doing....
Have created a special console for use on the day...

[Guntruck]

I've had to bow out of Doncaster due to my back problem being worse that first thought.

Paul - you'll need to find someone else who can bring the industrial mat and any planes you need

Andy - similarly I can't provide the extra 190s I promised.

Rob - I'll PM you about the cards I printed off from Mike's template

Sorry to leave you in the lurch

Steve

[Hedeby]

Regarding Industrial mat, I will bring mine.

If anybody could bring 3-4 Fw-190Ds I would be more than grateful, chaps:).
Get well soon, Steve!

[Flying Helmut]

Sorry to hear you're hors de combat Steve.

Had two slipped discs myself, some years ago - you have my sympathy. Hope it gets sorted out soon.

I can bring my Industrial Mat if needed; also have a couple of Fw190Ds (don't know why!)

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?

[Hedeby]

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

[johnbiggles]

Hi Yes, we are camping, not sure when we will arrive, hoping for a bit earlier this year.... but I said that last year:brickwal:

[johnbiggles]

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

[Hedeby]

What time is the Restaurant booked for?

7:45 Reg but they are pretty flexible and only 5 minutes walk away

[Rebel]

[johnbiggles]

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 :guns::crash:

[tikkifriend]

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

2 190´s and a Dambuster Lanc.

[Hedeby]

Where did you get that from Chris:envy::envy::envy:

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.

[Flying Officer Kyte]

What colours do they come in Chris, and how much do they cost?
Rob.

[Maverick]

Super

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

ditto Rob - How much?

Mav

[Hedeby]

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...

[tikkifriend]

MMMM love to have one . Can you deliver by 12.30 |Sunday( plane to catch)

[Flying Officer Kyte]

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?
Kyte.

[Maverick]

Hi Chris

please put me down for a slate Grey one

good for RAF WWII, well almost...

I will not be there Friday night as working late

will see you Saturday morning - cash in hand

Thanks

Mav

[Flying Officer Kyte]

I will also go with the slate grey Chris.

Rob.

[Boney10]

Those look nice, could you put me down for a grey also Chris

[Hedeby]

Cool will do - order placed should have them for you when you arrive. Anyone else let me know - we can get them made up this weekend

[Flying Helmut]

Fantastic!

Grey for me, too, please!

I will ask nicely Paul

[tikkifriend]

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?

Surely Glamping for Mr Biggles and Co :)

[Hedeby]

Ok first batch of bags done.. so thats Rob,Simon,Chris and Tim

[tikkifriend]

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...

Do you think that Keith might be interested in putting them in the Drome Shop Chris?

[tikkifriend]

I will ask nicely Paul

Merci Bien

Now that's not a bad idea.. although dont know if shipping costs might be an issue - lets see what Keith thinks and I can always put the two parties in contact... In the meantime yours is being produced on Tuesday and will have the French Tricolour on it....

The elves have awakened and want one to live in, any chance going across the big blue with one? Any color will do, they are color blind . . . : )

[Hedeby]

Will see what we can do David - bag no problem - postage costs might make things a bit scary (had a quick check and looks like about £15 to post to the US of A)

[clipper1801]

Spare no expense my friend, I can do a paypal when you need it, thanks! If I keep the elves distracted in the meantime . . .

Can do - however the only decent logo I have is the UK Squadrons one...

We have 2 late comers to our gathering. If you don't already know it is my pleasure to announce that Dan-Sam and Kubajs from Czech Wing will be joining us for the weekend.

[Nightbomber]

Excellent news! I was secretly informed of their plan, but waited for a formal announcement:D. :thumbsup: chaps!

[Nightbomber]

[tikkifriend]

They are indeed if not on this mission Hamburg will test them

Paul, I'm most interested in an AAR with Lancasters involved. :)

Andrzej, try to get a FW190D or BF109K + gunpods. ;)

(You know the formula, my friend: Andrzej+jetengine=boom :lol:)

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

See post 1 for up to date information. As of 0500 27th September 2016.

I thought Steve (guntruck) was not coming so I had 2 places left for the Hamburg raid Neil.

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Officially I heard nothing to say he isn't coming.

[Nightbomber]

Absolutely. 109 Karl would be my first choice!
I can not forget my finest hour during Origins 2016.

Bad news. How are you doing, Steve?

[tikkifriend]

Paul, I'm most interested in an AAR with Lancasters involved.

I can PM you the outline of the mission Sven and will no doubt have an AAR after the game.

[Guntruck]

Bad news. How are you doing, Steve?

I can just about get my socks on without assistance now, but a 3 hour drive to Doncaster was going to be a killer. The industrial strength painkillers I'm on tend to send you to sleep every 5 minutes so ....... :sleep::sleep::sleep:

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Apologies Steve, missed that one. You'll be missed. Get well soon and give our love to Jill, 'll keep a count of how many beers I owe you for next year's shindig.

Post 1 now amended. For those running g games please check.

All games now have at least 1 slot free.

[Dan-Sam]

For those who do not know now - me and Kubajs will join you in Doncaster. That is the reason why we are in lists ;) :pint:

[tikkifriend]

Dan The place you took on the Lancaster raid was Steves (Guntruck) who was playing Luftwaffe fighter defence. That ok for you?

I can feel your pain old friend. Pass my best regards to your lovely wife, please. This is the moment your love shines. Lucky you, she is by "her Man".
:thumbsup:

[Lt. S.Kafloc]

Can't wait Dan, Kubajs. Game slots booked. Looking forward to seeing you both again. We are meeting at the Grand St Ledger Hotel on Friday night. However Chris knows your hotel and I'll try and get there to pick you up or arrange something.
