Historical gaming since the mid sixties; discovered Lard in about 2011/12 and have never looked back.

Too busy herding cats to take any photographs of the games in progress; these were taken by one of the players in the pm game (thanks JJ).

The large ones are 20, 33, and 50 Litre, which stack well as they all have the same footprint; the others are 10 and 4 Litre (one 4L with a high lid to fit lancers).

Bloody hell mate, what have you been up to now? OML related? Hope it’s nothing serious, look after yourself and get well soon.

After being quite ill (temp of 39.8C on Sunday), Gibson is now well enough to resume his interest in this year’s Giro.

I should have said that I stopped running games after the first couple of events, there was generally too much to do herding 60-70 cats for me to run a game, except in an emergency

Running Clotted Lard (passed on the baton last year) I always tried to have a spare game up my sleeve, even one I could put on myself if necessary.

Doesn’t get any better; long gone are the days when I could drive four hours to a show then drive back afterwards, now it has to involve at least one night in a hotel

Hello, yes, Legionaries and Auxilia, in fact all of the figures are Foundry.
