Having swallowed the bitter pill of not being able to attend Battleday, I thought I might tempt fate and see if I can get down to Salute 51 next month

The good news is that I could do this one on the train, almost door to door

Sorry not to see you at the Battleday. 

I will be present with the Society of Ancients stand.  We will be selling our new publication Alala! (Greek Hoplite Rules from Simon MacDowall) along with our usual selection of goodies.

There will also be a demo game, using Impetus 2 I believe, from the Society of Ancients demonstration team (The Dead Arrows!).

The Dead Arrows.....

My son has just bought tickets for Salute 51.  I hope to be there to join him and, if so, will drop by.

I have also tempted fate and bought venue and train tickets.....

Enjoy.  I will have to get down again sometime.  On my one visit, about 10 years ago,  I found the scale of it almost overwhelming

15mm?

Steady on!  Has everyone recovered from the Battle Day misfortunes yet?  I can see them exclaiming words like "Oh no!  Holly is going to another wargames event!" and diving for cover already.

You can go off some people.....

on a 54mm battlefield

It will be bedlam I am sure. Looking forward to it

Whatever the scale 

well, I seem to be on the train and on my way to Salute....so far so good

Enjoy yourself.  (If you haven't already spotted this, large stretches of the DLR - which is how I generally get there - are out of commission this weekend.)

The Eagle has landed....

Show is very busy thus far and Richard is looking keen and raringto go on the society stand 

Watch out for Bob Cordery, who is apparently motoring around on borrowed mobility scooter.  Crowded Salute, inexperienced driver.  What could go wrong  Actually, Bob's been struggling health wise and it looked like he wasn't going to make Salute and the Warlords stepped up and sorted the mobility stuff, which was very decent of them.
