I do miss the old days and atmosphere of Kensington Town Hall, just as I miss the Hexagon at Reading, but times change.
Rules? You ask me what rules do I use. No, I don't do rules.

Unlike Grizz's underpants.

They don't get changed, they get condemned by the PNG Health Commission.

Another excellent collection of show photos, a mere 250!

I’m more worried if he washed his face with said underpants.

Well, you wouldn't want to get the clean underpants dirty before putting them on.

Looking at Henry's pics from Salute I'd say the average age seems a little lower than normal for wargames shows. The small LAW turnout probably helped with this.

I went to the first one at Excel and was so severely underwhelmed that I have never been back. I used to like Olympia -despite the bl**dy Underground engineerings on the line- and thoroughly enjoyed Kensington Town Hall and also Derby at the Uni. Both Excel and Derby are now on my Don't Go To list. Like others I much prefer the smaller shows which allow more time to chat and be generally congenial without resorting to violence when shoved by some six foot, hairy Mungo type character with a Bergen and all the charm and personal hygiene of a troll.
