I’m still waiting to receive instructions from the Working Committee as to what we’ll be playing
The main game is 18thC, but I'm sure that as usual other games will be on offer. Whatever games are played, the objective is an overarching sense of togetherness, common cause and shared enjoyment of the weekend.
Dave and I will be getting together in July to move this along. So please stop holding your breath.

This isn’t HMRC you know. We work to tight and strict deadlines on here. Simon even has a Kanban. Please pull your socks up and get cracking.

Isn't the 'main game' sunday only to allow for lead up games of various flavour on the saturday?

Doenitz found in an East German village, says there never was a surrender. WWII is on again, Russia asks Poland for free passage.

I do hope that the commemorations will keep things authentic. Bunting made out of worn out sacking, Vera Lynn on the gramophone and a menu of tripe, spam or whale meat with roast turnip washed down by acorn tea sweetened with minced turnip and pineapple surprise*
Wasn't "Whale meat again" one of Vera's hits?

There should be some Americans for Gaynor and the harpies to shag in exchange for some nylons.
*It's a turnip
I certainly get a sense that Ayton has never really moved on from this.

That sounds like just a normal weekend for Ayton, with the exception of burning a few strangers at the wicker man.
Just a thought, that as we're doing the first weekend, just remember that the Monday won't be a Bank Holiday day off.
Not that I can give one, because I'm retired.
