    Following a couple of questions today I would like to confirm that DONCASTER 2022 will be Friday 30th September Saturday the 1st and Sunday 2nd of October. So get your rooms booked and travel plans made and let’s have a record number of attendees this year.

    Why is Tim wearing boxing gloves in the second photo? Were the punters getting a bit rowdy?

    Err, nice pics Rob, but shouldn't they be in the Hammerhead thread? Or were there bits of Doncaster that I didn't get round to last year

    Sorry chaps, they are supposed to be in the Hammerhead thread. I tried to move them yesterday, and remove the double posted one, but am having trouble with that for some reasons. Even on the edit attatchments they are not showing up. I am going to delete them if I can and repost. I also noticed that for the first time for years they are not showing up as attatchments but the proper posts?
    Rob.

    Just so you know what this is all about I will leave you with this one photo.

    Is there a suggested hotel to stay with the main group?

    Well, I think it is time to cancel my "will attend". It is mix of feelings, because the reason is simple: estimated birthday of my second child (so something purely positive!). On the other hand, I missed 2 years already and planned to visit NRM in York again, this time in group of 4 players from CZ. Well, hope in 2023.

    Hi.

    After a talk to Paul in Prague I double checked the chance for a weekend vacation and connections from Nürnberg to Doncaster.

    Unfortunately the connections to Stanstead are too expensive at the moment and I would be forced to book for 5 night instead of 3...

    Beside this I'll change back to the airport police station September 1st, so no guarantee for a "non-duty" weekend.

    So I hope for 2023, gentlemen.
    Voilŕ le soleil d'Austerlitz!

    Might have to wait 'til Prague 2023, now, if I can get to that gig.

    I could reserect that Scenario for Doncaster 23 complete with additional underground toilets. An added incentive for Sven to attend

    The PTO version of the scenario requires a Kama Khazi pilot.
