    Rob,
    I can bring one. I would be bringing one to Doncaster, as that is where I remember seeing the flags in the background of convention images.

    Hi pilots,

    I try to collect WW2 planes from Wings of War / Wings of Glory older editions.
    Using the opportunity that we meet soon, let me ask, whether somebody is considering of selling the ready to play airplane packs with planes, bases and cards of:
    - Mitsubishi A6M2 Reisen
    - P-40 Warhawk
    - Heinkel He-111 H-3

    I will be interested in purchase.

    Greetings

    Which particular ones are you after?
    I can probably bring a handful with me, if you like?

    Hi, in the ideal world, I would like to buy 3 x P-40, 2 x Mitsubishi A6M2 Reisen, 2 x Heinkel He-111 H-3.
    But in reality - any of them. Thanks in advance

    One pure practical: I missed the right date for ordering a Con badges. Minimum is 25, but I can send them to all important parts (UK, Warsaw, Opole, Beograd, Nurnberg, Rome and whole CZ). Are you interested in them? Price same as last year.

    1 for me if you include France in important places list.

    To be honest, I am sad I missed this order. I really want to realize it. You know - if you want to motivate a boy scout, promise him a badge

    I do count on our Czech comrades, but I can't just show there and ask "Where are the planes"! Although, with enough šljivovica that could be arranged

    I've got missing zeroes, so it's O.K.

    What is not O.K is: Serbian wing arrives heavily depleted: only Jelena and I are coming. All others are out. However, Vladimir sends ajvar for Saturday and prizes for competition.

    It does look nice. One of best meals is chopped grilled meat cooked with paprika, onion an spices. It's called mućkalica.

    They were satisfied. It was just a canteen, nothing serious, but I like it also. More or less, Balkan way of enjoying food and life is famous

    Hi. I will bring a few plastic ship from an old boardgame for the Malta scenario. If anybody has a couple of more realistic warships, a couple of merchant ships and/or an aircraft carrier around 8/11 cm, please bring them. They will form a British convoy headed to Malta. Not needed, but to add a better touch. Thanks!

    Right on their way back home from Prague, my buddies from Warsaw, Rafał and Darek have paid me a visit bringing some cheerful memoires and specials!
    We had some soft drinks and a photo in the afternoon! They told us joyful Con stories.
    Could not make it this year, but my thoughts were with you, chaps!

    You were missed, Andy. By more than me, too. You were mentioned, at least, once a day, if not much more, within my hearing.

    Andy, Jelena and I missed you! I prepared special Celebration Kit (consisting of bottle of fine šljivovica) to enjoy every time when (hopefully our) team scores a kill

    Hello pilots,
    thank you all for the great CON. It was my pleasure to spend the weekend with you.

    As previous year I made a labeled picture. Enjoy! (and let me know if you find some mistake or typo)
