Thread: Dorset - who is here??

  1. #1

    Default Dorset - who is here??

    I see the posts around Entoyment, Flight Club etc

    How many peeps are local?

    I'm in Corfe Mullen but you knew that.

    Other regulars at Entoyment are Sherlochnumber1 (Andy), Yellow Peril (Hobz), Chianti Raider (Iain) and Frag Thief (Carl). All are registered on the forum but don't seem to have been active on here in the last 6 months. Thommo (Simon) joined the forum in July 2019 but hasn't been seen on here since.

    Very effiicent (as ever) Mr T, Frag Thief, is that THE Carl??

    Yes it is the Carl!

    We have a couple of other players at the store like Richard and Ethan but they have not been coaxed onto the forum yet.

    Shouldn't be a problem setting you up with games once Boris allows us out to play again.

    But I did not know that Andy. My brother-in-law lives in Corfe Mullen.

    Ethan (Squire) is on the forum chaps - but not been active for a while.
    We also have some neighbours in the surrounding counties who join in the fun at Flight Club when they can - Alex (Prodromoi), Mike (Mikeemagnus), Rob (Rabscallion), Neil (NeilCFord) and those from further afield like Tim (Flying Helmut) & Andy (Ajay) when he lived in Sussex.
    These chaps also support the game at shows across the SW & beyond for which I've been very grateful and partly the reason for FC so we can game together in between times.

    Unfortunately not Andy. He is over 80 and a bit set in his ways now.

    Looking promising for some hooking up once conditions etc start to free up. And with Entoyment potentially having more stock arriving, would be good to fly some missions.

    That's a shame Rob. You'll have to try and time a future visit to coincide with a Flight Club at Entoyment.

    That would be good, we missed out by a few days a couple of years ago, and last year went to Praguecon instead of having a holiday in the UK. I have only visited Entoyment twice, and both times it was mid week to buy some models whilst we were visiting my Brother-in-law.
    Once the covid is over and he is no longer shielding we should be down again, so may see you then.
    Rob.

    I'll be more than happy to trolley on down for the next "Flight Club" meet - I really need an injection of WGF, fun and banter!

    Maybe we should try and organise a Southern Command Wings Weekend at Entoyment when the virus allows?

    Absolutely!
    When Pete Valinsky gives the thumbs-up I'll be there!

    Am that desperate for a game, I might even make the trip down (sick of cleaning the Jag for it to sit on the drive for weeks on end)

    Think we'll all need an injection or two before we get that one though !

    Strictly speaking it should be a South West England Command Wings Weekend Andy but it's the right idea. There'll be so many takers we'll need a one way system round the table to move & shoot all the planes

    South, South East or South West, all would be welcome.

    If we get enough players we could run several tables for the weekend.

    Andy, have you ever tried the hunger games scenario for wings like you did for xwing, I think that could be a great historically inaccurate bun fight.

    Perhaps a warm up for a tour of other squadrons air stations??
