The Other Partizan Wargames Show Report October 2023
Please forgive the direct link. There are far too many large photographic files to load onto every fora I'm posting on without losing a year or two of my life.
for the lowdown and the juicy pics- just pop on over o my just Add Water Blog here:
https://justaddwater-bedford.blogspot.c ... eport.html
A visual report on all the games that caught my eye except for The Bodkins Siege of of Hennebont, 1342 (Precurser to the HYW) on which I was waxing lyrical. I've struggled for time ergo the lack of commentary on the rest of the games.
All the games are a visual treat and i urge you to pop over and have a gander.
Many more pictures on my blog! See link above.

I missed it due to a gammy leg (war wound, dont'cha'know). Pity as some cracking games there, although Mr Baccus did say it was probably good for me, walking on a stick would have been tough with the numbers and crowds.

Like most UK shows the numbers thin in from about 1-2pm- not so much at Partizan but I reckon, if you can stand the discomfort, it's worth a look around(?).FreddBloggs wrote: ↑Fri Nov 10, 2023 2:18 pm I missed it due to a gammy leg (war wound, dont'cha'know).

Frankly,. I would agree with Mr B - I'd say you were probably well out of it. I currently need a four-wheeled walker (slightly sparkly Irish Racing Green, since you asked) to get around, and have done since the Ayton weekend back in late April. With it, I have attended Partizan I, Colours, and a few smaller local shows - but not without difficulty. Despite having an extremely useful integral seat (with an equally useful storage area under it), to be honest, it has given me a tremendous appreciation of how even a small lip in a doorway can inflict a disproportionate amount of misery and I have every sympathy for those who have to cope with far worse and/or more permanent disabilities than I have. Get well soon, Fredd!FreddBloggs wrote: ↑Fri Nov 10, 2023 2:18 pm I missed it due to a gammy leg (war wound, dont'cha'know).
