Unfortunately I won't be able to make this date. Nor will David - its GCSE year.

Is this likely to be a new regular date for Rollcall? It puts two of the bigger tournaments very close to each other, with a big gap left in October.

Stay at the Pink Punter. You won't be a Virgin after that!

There's Derby in October.

There is a big tournament just about every month except May this year

It's not a town centre exactly, more of a giant game of Tetris played with shopping malls. There are loads of shiny new relatively cheap hotels.

However, Cranfield, where Roll Call is, is about 10 miles away

Average Joes; 15mm, any army; Only 2 BG may be elite, superior and/or drilled. All others must be average or poor and undrilled.

Inferiority Complex; 25mm
