    I will be attending Hammerhead on 28th April. Is there anything that you would like me to bring with me?

    Unless you hear otherwise from Chris or Simon, just your sense of humour.

    Sorry chaps, won't be making Hammerhead - as the saying goes: "something's come up". Do have fun there.

    Me also. Came back from Prague last Sunday and on Monday went down with something nasty! Shades of the 1918 Influenza Pandemic perhaps? Definitely don't want to spread it around so will keep to my bed, so to speak.
    I suspect the young lady I was sitting next to on the aircraft who did nothing but cough, cough, cough for the whole flight. She blamed the dry air from the air con as the cause but I'm thinking it was probably something more.
    Talking about the return flight we had a medical emergency on board and had to put down at Schipol Airport in Holland to offload the casualty, very exciting but made me very late in getting home. 02.00 hours instead of the expected 10.30 hours. Oh well, such is life.
    Hope you all have a great day. So sorry I can't be with you!

    I notice there has been no confirmation from Strangely Brown of his flight worthiness, so just in case I will pack the big box of WGS delights.
    I am not sure of my eta tomorrow, but will hopefully get there around 9ish.

    Hi Guy's I'm sorry I didn't get to the table until late and had a quick chat with Naharaht and later a much longer chat to Tim (Flying Helmet) but failed to introduce myself to the rest of you. My chauffeur was waiting impatiently for me.

    The WW1 table looked very nice and the sails table was jam packed full each time I came over with everyone laughing and talking 10 to the dozen, looks like they had a great time.

    Tim - a special thank you for giving me your time, experience and knowledge it was a very useful chat.

    I shall have to organise my time better the next time, I don't know where it went.

    My apologies again for having to bail out early, I will be writing up my AAR for the WWII games as soon as I can find a working computer, my laptop has died; Saturday proved to be a bit of a snafu.

    My thanks to all the chaps involved, but most of all for John and the Biggles clan for stepping into the WW2 breach at the 11th hour.
