Well, there's an Ayton in the Scottish Borders...

To clear up any misunderstandings (We've been here before and do not want to go there again), an Ayton event is NOT invitation only. They are open to all LAW forum members
So please don't feel that you would be unwelcome, quite the opposite.

Unfortunately it looks like I won't be able to make those dates. SWMBO has informed me that the European championships for her horse are being held in Milan the very same weekend and she intends to try to qualify him for it. Unfortunately I won't know whether he's qualified or not until 1st week of September, but since he got a bronze medal in 2019 it's highly likely.

I'm +1 for, well anything to be honest. I'll be like a tramp on chips by October. It will depend when I can get and it's best I don't plan too much with Memsahib back at work and baby in tow. Definately up for ACW and Shiny. Kumbahyah is a possibility? I'm intrigued by Paul and Ken's Trojan ideas too. Though I've no such figures. I'd be very much up for a Lion Rampant game too. Too many possibilities!

Be great to see you and put a face to a badger! I'll have plenty more Prussians if you need a lend.

There is...only a couple of miles from where I am now

Now there's an idea - each year, we have to find a different Ayton to meet up in. Are there any in Oz....?

...have you never heard of doping?

GM and I are kicking around the idea of an Oldhammer game
