Re: Maxen- a SYW approximation

I'm a bit tired of the ECW project (all that fighting, screaming, bloodshed - and that was just the group planning sessions), so I thought a gentlemanly game of SYW would be nice. Cuirassier and cuirassier, said Alice. If I didn't know better, I'd say you were just pandouring to those granny dears ...

Re: Salute 2024

What are the car park charges like now? It would cost me about £40 return to travel by train, or £15+ each way + parking by car.
