It is my birthday later in the month and I am expecting a couple of Amazon gift cards so may well be getting a copy then!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-71237827736729612032019-09-11T08:05:05.955+01:002019-09-11T08:05:05.955+01:00Hi David in Suffolk,

I am not planning on gaming either anytime soon but it would be good to see what was in the magazines.<br /><br />I know what you mean about the memory! I can remember details f games I have played from 30 odd years ago but not what I had for dinner last Wednesday evening (actually I can but only because it was our first night in Clyst St Mary....)!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-58166608626159792182019-09-11T08:01:14.278+01:002019-09-11T08:01:14.278+01:00Hi Geordie,

More a staight historical account I think, than Andy Callan's scenario/campaign guide. <br />So why can I remember that from 30 years back, but not paying the water bill from last week?david in suffolkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02945969485547328039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-45075206330980201462019-09-10T23:07:01.435+01:002019-09-10T23:07:01.435+01:00The "master plan" is to start with the &...The "master plan" is to start with the "extra infantry" packs outside Eric's OoB - so I can get my "eye" back in<br /><br />I may be jumping about from 15mm to 28mm because of a Malburian project in the offing from an "unstructured group" musing what to do ... winter is coming so there should be plenty of opportunities to paint ;)Geordie an Exiled FoGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01002743056274635657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-34826494343529572562019-09-10T14:09:56.726+01:002019-09-10T14:09:56.726+01:00Hello Geordie old chap,
