Cavalier?

[Captain Blood]

Anyone going to Cavalier in Tonbridge on Sunday?

I haven't been for a few years. It's not one of the bigger shows, but it's only 25 minutes from me, and I do need some paints and a couple more boxes of plastic figures, which I'm hoping I'll be able to pick up there.
I say hoping, because the Tunbridge Wells Wargames Society website isn't exactly brimming over with info...
There is, for instance, no list of demo games, nor participating traders: not that I can see anyway...
But I think I'll give it a try.

I intend going, circumstances permitting...

Wont be there until about noon, though.
See ya then, if you are still around at that time, that is.
Pint?

Very possibly

after visiting this show for a couple of years, we won't be there this year because Eurotunnel has multiplied their prices for this sunday to the extreme.

[uti long smile]

Yep - we're trading there - only 30 minutes from me.

[Eric the Shed]

Will be there with wife and kids

Going out for Sunday lunch afterwards

Dear Boys,
I am about 1hour 15mins by car and have an outside chance of making the show.
I would love to meet fellow hobbyists.
How will we recognise each other , maybe cocktail time at the bar for some
light relief or a light lunch at a local bistro . As Panto season is truly over
for another year it would be nice to relax with like minded people.
We all could wear a flower in our pin hole for identification .

Regards
Cecil

Karl was wearing his badge 

Truthfully, it's not the biggest of shows... 90 minutes was the most I could manage - and that included going right round several times as well as shopping, plus stopping to chat to Ged, Karl, and a couple of other old faces (Eric the Shed was arriving just as I was leaving... )
Still, I managed to get some of the GW paint and various plastic figure sets I wanted.
Many of the display games weren't much to write home about I'm afraid - although the Maidstone WW1 Belgium game on the stage was mighty impressive, and I liked SELWG's little Valhalla table... Quality terrain on both those. Most of the rest - meh.
But overall - considering it's not too far from me and only cost 4 quid to get in - thanks are due to the TWWS for going to the effort to lay it on...

Id echo Richard's points about the level of quality of games - but I do understand that to cart around a lot of stuff might not be everybody's cup of tea.

I did feel for one kid (with his dad) when he approached the M&T game in the small room and asked if it was a participation game...he was told it was a demonstration only. Nobody was playing and it could have been a great opportunity to inspire..

Very much looking forward to Salute
