Excellent Tristan.

I've canceled the EGF calendar entry on the 7th March in favor of your event; But ultimately it's not up to me. David, you happy with this?

Alpha and I were planning on coming in to play some 2-er ASL on Sunday. Is there any extra space for a couple of rogue wargamers? :D

The weekend was a huge success! I hope someone took a few pics and can post them in due course. Numbers on Monday were good too.

As a few people were heard to remark, it was good boardgaming weather all weekend!
