Royal British legion Raffle

Its the time of year that we raise funds for the Royal British Legion by holding a raffle ,regulars will know most of the details already as they will be same as previous years I have only started organising this today ,but already two Fat lardies have promised some lovely prizes as always.More info over next few days.
Update S&S models are donating some of thier nice models as well

set backs

Hi sorry for not updating anyone on the FOF tournament or even posting on the blog ,but a trapped  nerve led to my arm being in a splint (still is but a bit better ) and Hanna my 14 year old had a terrible accident  which luckily she has got through and her bravery paid off with the good news she doesnt need any skin grafts at all now where as at first it looked like she would need many operations .I will hopefully be up to pace on everything soon and get in touch with everyone who registered for the fof tournament .

 a few more figures ,scenary and cards I managed to finish for my Through the mud and the Blood project

Royal British Legion

For a long time the British Legion has supported our injured service Men and Women and thier loved ones,recently funds have been sparce due to the recession and other high profile charities taking funds away

please think twice if you are going to donate where your money is going ,please give to the RBL either directly or through one of the many people like myself it is easy to do my donation link is on to the right under bemycharity.

Thank You.

Sheffield wargames society

We will be running a Force on Force game for new players next week 18/07/2012 at Sheffield Wargames Society ,all the places have now been taken but please feel free to turn up and ask questions about the game/rules meaning of life etc. The group behind the very successful Triples show have been going since the early 70's and after a long absence I have recently started going to the weekly meetings again and wish to thank them not only for the support at triples but also the backing they are giving us for the upcoming tournament .For more details of SWS  http://www.sheffieldwargamessociety.co.uk/#.
