Matakishi's Tea Party- Pics and videos (sort of)
« on: August 11, 2011, 12:56:27 PM »


I've made it to 50 (well, I will have by the time of the Tea Party) so I'm holding a little get together to celebrate.

There will be games of course and tea and everyone is welcome but space is limited so if you let me know you plan to attend in advance it would help.

I'll be posting details of what's going on in more detail as they become clear. I will be hosting a game, Conan probably, Thunderchicken has promised a game of something exciting and my friend Mark Bush will be putting on a historical game in 15mm probably ACW.

The Tea Party is being held on Saturday October 1st 2011 at the Bishop David Brown School Albert Drive, Surrey, Woking, GU215RF.

There are buses and taxis from nearby Woking and its mainline station, a shuttle service will be running on the day, if you need a lift from the station please let me know in advance so I can provide you with a phone number.

Details of updates will be posted as they happen on my site here:
http://www.matakishi.com/teaparty.htm

There is also an email link for you to contact me there and a map. Better maps and directions will be posted in the fullness of time.
I have contacted several people in advance and some said they'd come, some said they couldn't, some weren't sure. If everyone could let me have a final confirmation soon, along with any offers to run games, sell stuff or whatever that would be a great help.

It's free of course but I hope to be offloading some wargaming tat on the day to offset the costs :)

Congrats dude. I have a nice big ocean between me and the party and I'm starting school so I can't go (though I would very much like to) but seriously best of luck dude.

May the dice be with you. Always. ;)

Already in my diary Paul, doubt I'll have my complete Post Apoc game ready in time, but will still attempt to get together a small introductory game.

Matakishi,
I'll be over from Canada last week of September, first week of October.....................unless an erupting volcano scuppers my plans again.  I'll do my very best to get there and roll a few dice with you guys.

I'm aiming to be there, Paul, perhaps with a small Wars of The Roses skirmish, if required  :)

If not, I'll just play.

Cheers

It's a shame that some of the regulars can't make it, no matter, there'll be pics!
A War of the roses game would be brilliant Richard, I'll pencil you in :)

Happy birthday when it comes, Paul.  It is just too far to go from Scotland - sorry I'll miss it.

As a commemorative piece I have commissioned 50 gold plated (22ct) Miniature Metal Matakishis to mark the event. Everyone putting on a game will receive one of course, the remainder will be up for grabs in a first come, first served basis.
