What are people buying?

Just ordered The Silver Bayonet deal from Northstar. Napoleonic fantasy skirmish. Described by one of my friends as Pride, Prejudice and Vampires. I'll need a green uniformed officer so that I can say "Have that yer bastard" in a Yorkshire accent every turn.

How nice, so Brian Blessed.

Sharpe has a distinct Sheffield accent.

Not bought exactly - a free 15 draw Bisley cabinet. 8)

I went to watch Warrington Town play Whitby Town and at half time noticed that the club shop had thrown out said cabinet. The shop had been refitted and it was going to be left outside to rot.

I asked if I could have it and they said yes. All I had to do was get it home. I'd had a couple of pints so the car was not an option. What to do? I called my wife and she walked to the ground with the frame from her shopping trolley. At full time we pushed it all the way home! What a sight we must have been.

It's all cleaned up now. It's in decent shape.

Excellent capture. i ended up spending £90 I think on two a few months ago and they are fantastic both for figures/scenery and tools etc...

That's about the going rate so you can imagine how pleased I am.

That's a good result. Instead of calling the missus, couldn't you have just asked the rest of the crowd to help you? Two more blokes would have made light work of it.

3 if the away supporters chipped in?

I often get a lift home but my mate was working.

Not according to Helion, the publisher. Nowhere to be found on their site. Very odd, as I would have pre-ordered.

well it was listed as 2020 due from Helion, so it might be worth an email to check there is not an issue and everyone else is not using a placeholder.

I got an email back from Helion, they have confirmed that the book has been cancelled. Which is a real shame.

Ah well...
