If you want to drive, parking is controlled on Sundays in the streets immediately around the pub, but if free a couple of blocks away (in some streets which may be somewhat less secure?) - otherwise there are car parks nearby as well

All army lists must conform to the following restrictions
6 battle troop foot bases per artillery


The cost will be £10, and any excess after paying for the venue and prizes will be put behind the bar as a tab. You will be able and expected to "buy at least a couple of drinks during the day and order a curry for lunch" as a condition of entry.


We will aim for a (civilized) 10:00ish start time, so curry lunch at 1pm-ish, so we can all aim to be done by around 730-ish pm.
We can definitely fit 10 tables in, and I think we can get up to 12, so at least 20 people can enter.
Pay on the day

Its 15mm and 800AP, but we might make deployment zones a little deeper for battle troops so everyone gets stuck in quickly.

Lists to me by the 10th July please

Simon

Great news Simon - put me down for it.

Don

And me

Keith

A really good mate gets married the day before, so it's a no go for me. Sorry chaps, can't give you all another set of 25-0 scores!
On the plus side, you won't have to suffer my hangover!

Unfortunatly the late start and laid back antipodean schedule means that I cannot make the last flight of the day. I need to be at Heathrow at 19:30! I will therefore have to give it a miss. Shame.
Happy to prevent a bye for the first 2 games though.
Steve

You are lucky I'm doing it in UK time, not Aussie time!

At this moment in time I can't see ant reason why I can't attend so add me to the list please Simon.

Are you deliberately spelling other people's names wrong in revenge for nobody getting yours right?
