So that's the true reason why Napoleon and Austrian painter failed with invasion: paperwork!
Paperwork... the nuclear option

Paul, really sad to get this news but here's to next time
Like others, I fail to understand why the testing costs so much. Someone, somewhere, is really milking the situation I think
Canada being Green means we can return. We still don't know for certain that we can go or what the conditions will be when we arrive. We've only received official confirmation that canada is opening its borders on 9th September to citizens of the USA or those with residency rights. As of the last info we received, UK citizens were still not allowed in. Hopefully that will change soon.I thought Canada was green now so you could jet off there?
No one at all has posted any interest in a BSG game - just one of the Dutch chaps mentioned it as a back-up if he didn't get his first choice games.
If enough folks commit to wanting a game, I'll run one; but it would not be Friday now, since I'm in the "Zombicide" game Friday pm.
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
The chainsaw is the best weapon for putting down the undead. Failing that, go for sniper skills and offer top cover for the team.
So jealous of everyone who gets to play Zombicide. Don't get hooked as there are about 1 million mini's to paint.
Now I have to go work on my Electric Chainsaw weapon card - All the zombie stopping power, with none of the noise!
TWO WEEKS TO GO....Even Boris can’t screw this up for us now (I hope)

Wanna bet?

Do I detect a hint of disillusionment with regard to our glorious BoJo?
Two weeks n counting. Looking forward to my first attendance.
We are OK, there is no COVID. Only elections in the first half of October. So no pandemic until October
Love the optimism in this thread.No I'm sure he is doing a splendid job Reg
Really looking forward to this one
I'm in the Premier Inn from Thursday evening, so will be around to help out Friday.
I thought I might actually look around the museum (something I've never actually done ) Friday morning.

Careful now... the section on English & French sailing ships 1765-1820 is very interesting I hear

ONE WEEK TO GO....
Just a few name badges to print as well as scoring charts/sheets and I think we’re all good this end... however it’s party time today as my granddaughter turns 11, so not going to happen today, lol
Never Knowingly Undergunned !!
24 hours to go... car is half packed, checklist ready, polo shirts ironed, camera on charge.... after two years I’m finally good to go.
Never Knowingly Undergunned !!
If anyone needs anything (and you don't have my contact number) drop me a PM with your number and I will give you a callback asap..
(although in a meeting until about 8:00pm this evening)
Never Knowingly Undergunned !!
Car packed, dog with neighbour, ready to rock n roll early on the morrow. I should see you fine fellows around lunch time.
Run for your life - there are stupid people everywhere!
Just got back from the bar.
Now for a good night's sleep in a big comfy bed...
Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow.
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
Really miss the event. Wish you a bloody good time!
Many thanks Dan, safe journey folks, see you shortly...

Coming down is the hardest thing
Hey Guys,
we hope you had a wonderful friday and saturday playing. And of course the nice evenings in the pub and restaurant.
We'd love to have been there.
On Friday Lex, Arjan and myself enjoyed a game of Wings (WW1) and a game of Zombiecide, separated by an Indonesian dinner.
On saturday the three of us travelled to Belgium to visit the Royal Museum of the Armed Forces in Brussels. I can seriously recommend it
Today you're playing "Ace of Aces" .... first time without foreigners joining in the competion. Who knows ... this time the British side might even come up winners
Have FUN,
cheers,
Guus, Lex, Arjan

HOT NEWS OFF THE PRESS.....
After 8 attempts the Ace of Aces game was won by the British, by one point, courtesy of two Germans colliding and destroying each other in the very last round of the game.
In other news, I am delighted to announce that the winner of this year’s Eagle Trophy is Mark (Woof) who had a storming Ace of Aces with 4 kills and zero losses, which combined with a strong display over the weekend gave him a well deserved win on his Doncaster debut.
Massive thanks to everyone who made it to Doncaster this year... pictures and reports, will, I am sure follow shortly
Never Knowingly Undergunned !!
Let's hope that next year travels to UK will be easier!

Eager to see them!!!pictures and reports, will, I am sure follow shortly
Yes indeed, many congratulations to Mark
I didn't get to chat to him over the weekend (something to do with a twenty year historical gap between WGF and WGS) but I hope to remedy that at some subsequent show, or the next Donnie, where we all hope he will return to defend his title!

See you on the Dark Side......
Cheers for a great day, great to see you all again. Well done Mark for winning the Ace of Aces and Simon the sails trophy.
I'll leave Chris to update everyone on the others.
Sean and I had a great game, even though I drew the dreaded boom card twice.
See you on the Dark Side......
Thank you for this first appetizer of report! May I share on socials?
