MD,

I think alcohol kinda got in the way of any group photos , but Bob and Tony Neville should have captured everyone on the video recording they took. I think Bob was filming for about 5 minutes, so after editing, there should be at least 20 seconds of usable material.

Was a real laugh when Bob started filming,i'm praying that most of it is indeed unusable as some of us were slightly drunk

Rob

Luckily I have far more willpower. So I just picked up the Figarti Iraq Insurgent set.
And the Market Garden 6lb set.
Oh, and a few of the MG singles / doubles.
And some of the second wave of FJs.
I seem to recall getting the WS99 Tank crew set as well.
And some more Conte Spartans
And some Tradition castings.

Ooops....done it again.....

Rob

Don't worry, that's what I remember as well.

Whether the edited version will reflect that, is another matter.....

Great show. Got myself a few goodies, mainly WB Zulu War Matte figures, the last figure at some of the stalls, pure luck.

It also opened my eyes to the other brands, K+C make some great crusade figures, sadly I forgot to pick up a flyer for them. Made me laugh when I carried a WB bag through, giving it the hard sell!

The £18 charge for parking was a bit of a stinger though.

 

[Tony Neville]

Hi System

Glad you liked the show, and managed to get some goodies.

£18 for the day in th emiddle of London is amazing price!! you park in other parts and your looking at £20 - £25plus for a few hours!

I parked just outside Soho for a west end show once and it was £33 pounds for 4hours!

Send me a PM with your address etc and i will send you a Crusader Flyer!

regards

Tony

Soho? A West End Show? Of course it was.

Next, you'll be telling me that you had a bout of food poisoning at the December 08 show.
