My photographic inclusionary skills are best left undiscussed in proper circles.  Here, too.   ;D

As for the well, it is well that you did indeed include, well, a well. 

And I'm certain the good Pugwash can effect a proper rescue.  Carry on with the plan, my good man....

And please be kind enough to excuse the tardiness of my reply.  It seems Higher HQ and are are gallavanting about Portugal at the moment... :D

are are - are you having a laugh or is it code to indicate you and Mrs Jim are indeed in Portugal, if so where are you, inspecting the lines of Torres Vedras, sunning yourselves on the Algarve, taking in the delights of the Ship museum in Lisbon, enjoying the Port in Porto or some other adventureous adventure we should know about.

I have indeed played out the break in and break out of the camp and it didn't go quite as planned.  lol.

I don't know if anyone is interested but here in Vagabond Manor after only 3 years the gaming room is bursting at the seams and I'm having to be inventive with scenary because it takes up so much space.

So I tried to be a little inventive in how I made the camp buildings and I'm very pleased that they don't take up much space.



I wish I'd thought of this years ago, I know plenty of other people have.  :(

Good to hear! After all you wouldn't want it to have been a boring uneventful escape.  lol

The terrain would certainly work for an armed rescue mission scenario.

As a point of clarification, "are are" should have been "I are". Oh well.

Right now we are on the Douro River east of Porto.  Spent 3 days in Lisbon.  We did have an opportunity to tour the Convent of Christ in Tomar - the HQ of the Knights Templar in Portugal and later the Order of Christ.

And I shall review the official reports of the breakout attempt...

Hope you're having fun in Portugal! I look forward to hearing about it over beers at Advance the Colors in October... ;D
