If there are others in that situation I would be happy to do 42mm on both days. Failing that does anyone have a spare brigade of 30mm? I really can't justify dropping another £100 or so in these uncertain times.
Having done the maths it might well be more than £100 so I'm wavering. I do have a bit of spare dosh from being innactive but keen to spend wisely. I may also not get much painting done by then, so I'd in theory be available for more 42mm doings. Or another +1 for ACW. The situation is fluid.

So the rumours are true then?

Oh yes. How do you think us local yokels make our beer money?

Still along way off but I note that some wargames events for October have been cancelled (albeit in the US as far as I know) are we going to leave it as late as possible to make a decision so that we can react to events?

I confess, I'm not sure whether we will be going ahead with Targe in Kirriemuir. It's scheduled for November, but even then, who knows?

I'd love to schedule another The Other Shedcon for November, but I guess we'll have to wait until much closer.

I think it might be a case of second guessing for Ayton. Targe might well have the decision made for you during October! If there is the expected upsurge of CV19 cases in the autumn we might see another crackdown :(
Targe used to be the only show I went to every year...won a fair few painting prizes there too :)

It would be a shame if it didn't happen, hope you make it if it does.

And I think I'm currently the holder of the quaich for a British Army subject.
