[GeorgeDick]

What I have been asked to remind everyone to have the army list in before the 3rd March, so we can plan some other stuff going off like food, and the likes

Thanks..

are there still places available for this?

as I havent won a game at V2 I figure Id best learn the rules properly from the experts.

If there is:

1. Any recommendations on cheap hotels in the area?

2. Im in Sunderland, anyone around that area or on my way want to share transport costs?

cheers
