VBCW Ayton 3rd May 2019 Organisation Thread

Yes, the vast herds of Nguni that trample and fertilise the fields of Yorkshire are famous around the world. It's why EB yells "AYTON" whenever he arrives in Southern Africa, Texas, or the Northern Territory.

Gary - well its possible your re-enactors have gone for true authenticity and liberated some from Flamingo Land (which probably didnt exist in the 30s but who cares)

Original request restated since we have turned the page

Call for scatter scenery.

All - we will be treated to some sumptuous mats and buildings courtesy of Purps and LT with myself and Jeremy topping up where needed. We probably have enough walls, trees and hedges. But any period appropriate scatter scenery will be most welcome - signposts, telegraph poles(British), post boxes, phone boxes, milk churns, razzle mags, farm animals, crates, beer kegs etc. that sort of thing. Could you post here if you have anything of this sort that you can bring - thanks!

No, he yells Ayton because that's where he thinks he is. Immediately after wondering why the journey takes so much longer each year.

It's a damning indictment of my livestock collection that almost all that I can lay hands on are bears and wolves. I've got some sheep somewhere but I'm not sure if they look fierce enough for the local variety.

[Jeremy]

I have some sheep, pigs and chickens. Certain of the Ayton Warbands may have to dice against their resistance when seeing such tempting offerings. I’m just worried there won’t be enough sheep to go round

[Buff Orpington]

I shall try to find my flock. I shall definitely be bringing Redvers the bull and Wee Eck the little Highland bull. These two in conjunction with little Timmy Wilkins, the catapult armed boy scout could be an event card on their own.

[levied troop]

Little Timmy will be very welcome, I’m doing some event cards and there’s one that needs a Boy Scout

If anyone has a Morris Dancer that might be useful

[Jeremy]

John, I’ll send you a list of civilians I’ll be bringing

[World2dave]

Won't the Morris dancer skew the whole scenario? With everyone trying their damnest to kill the fecker they'll forget GM's finely crafted narrative.

[Peeler]

What about the magic phone box, well known, where delicate young ladies enter & come out with a pram, baby therein, a fag in their gob and a shitty attitude?
