That's a very good idea. LAW should perhaps put on a game?
We’ve got enough collateral from various Aytons to put on some rather good games

A fine idea from Mr Burt! Look forward to his organising it... :)

Do we have any chance of surviving a weekend in Boro?

Probably not. But who wants to live forever? My biggest worry is I might survive it.

I'm not going until they reorganise the whole biz so my armies come with me. St Peter can go fuck himself.

After a weekend in Boro would you want to survive?

Illustrated Talks: The First Great Civil War in the Tees Valley

The Battlefields Trust: North East & Borders (South) will be presenting three short (about 20 mins each) illustrated talks at Battleground 2018. The presentations will give some background to the English Civil War in the North of England, the importance of the River Tees and the implications of each battle for the area, the Royalist and Parliamentarian factions and the wider war overall. A Question & Answer session will follow each talk as required. All presentations will be by Phil Philo of the Battlefields Trust.

11:00 - The Battle of Piercebridge (1 December 1642)

12:00 - The Battle of Guisborough (16 January 1643)

13:00 - The Battle of Yarm (1 February 1643)

These presentations will take place upstairs in the Battleground venue and admission is free!

In the main hall, we'll also have the Battlefield Trust stall where you can see our Civil War education collection and the fantastic Battle of Piercebridge model by Mark Hornsby. Pendraken Miniatures, in association with the Battlefields Trust, will be launching a range of army packs representing the three main engagements fought in the Tees Valley in 1642-43.
