Sue and I are spending a week near Filey, North Yorkshire. We popped to Bridlington today by bus - a form of travel we never usually use much at home! While Sue was hunting shoes, as she does, I took the opportunity to visit Mighty Lancer Games. Fantasy, Sci-Fi, board games, Warlord Games hysterical, acres of plastic and more paint than you can shake a stick at! What did I buy? A large pot of GW Null Oil! Last of the big spenders me!

Bridlington? You were lucky Peeler's retired, or he might have been there to truncheon you for being a suspicious looking non-local.

We were there last month, great little shop and loads of temptation.

They are a good crowd at Mighty Lancer, and pre pandemic ran a great two day show at Driffield.
Rules? You ask me what rules do I use. No, I don't do rules.

The owners were on the sculpting course that Norm and I went to. They seemed very pleasant

I believe that, in Peeler's mind at least, that counts as a tautology.

Frankly the locals looked odd enough to us.

Well, the locals are odd, until you've been there long enough for them to look normal. NfB, that is.

If you locate their preferred sites you can observe their strange mating rituals although I wouldn't recommend it. Peeler has a list of locations.
One couple from Brid got disorientated on a trip to Scarbados so they tried it in the queue at Domino's. It wasn't a great success.
