Last Sunday I dragged my hairy ass out of bed after 2 hours sleep and after finishing another 12 hour night shift wondering why but then I'm a Wargamer and a show is a show and so the SELWG 2012 slow two step began...
I took a lot of pictures but most of them are all over the sodding place but their are better out there (see some links below first picture but not Ray's), I remained static for a lot of the show with brief bursts of buying (GZG, Painting Supplies and Perry Miniatures the main beneficiaries!) but a lot of it was a blur, I believe I met a lot of people but as it went on the heat and chlorine got to me....
We ended up at the golden arches, made it home and was later shouted at by the family to go to bed as I was acting weird(er).....
......there are a lot of pictures of Ray but maybe that's the lack of sleep or honing my stalking skills, his big head, the bright red top or....?
The show was well attended but maybe not as much as last year
A steward spots a problem in red....
Lovely WW2 game from the Crawley boys, I believe it won best in show....
Another lovely piece of WW2 but forgot name..........
Ray yet again seen bothering people.......
....and traders!!
Battle of San Tarzgarotto, First Carlist War 1837 from Redhill Games, this to me was the best in show....
Postie suffering back pain again, Ray said it was his wallet.....
Postie and Ray have a moment......
Look at the evil git Posties face as he tries to stick his finger in my ear, the dirty ba$tid!
ReplyDeleteAnd why the hell are there so many pics of me!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGravity mate. The camera is naturally pulled towards the object with the greatest mass.
DeleteGood one Lee!
DeleteCause...you are an Issue? LOL ;D
DeleteA pleasure to attend the show with you Ray and Postie. It really did add to the experience. Really nice pics and a great day. Thanks mate.
ReplyDeleteA pleasure as always Clint!
DeleteNice pic's Fran. Some great looking games.
ReplyDeleteLOL looked like a good day out tired though you may have been
ReplyDeleteThey even had lights on theirs? That's epic but maybe it should be against the rules, you can't compete with something like that.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you ended the pictures where you did - the next moment could've been awkward.
ReplyDeleteLooks like quite a show! And the one that won Best in Show was amazing.
Good one Fran, looks like a good outing.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you guys had a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteI always like SELWG if you get bored looking at toy soldiers (god forbid) there's always the female polo team squad to ogle at!
ReplyDeleteThey were all mail this year except for one lonely girl!
Delete...Male!!!!!
DeleteGood photos. Nice looking miniatures. I like that lit-up French town and the Carlist battle.
ReplyDeleteThat poor little female security guard in the safety vest must have been in awe of all the manliness there. "WINK"
Great photos! Looks like a great time was had by all!
ReplyDeletei want to party with you guys... i will bring the cake!
ReplyDeleteWe like chocolate!
DeleteDARK CHOCOLATE...

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the pictures, looks like alot of fun.
ReplyDeletethat's a whole lotta wargamers per square meter!
ReplyDeleteGreat pics and that crawley table: amazing. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteseems like one could spend a lot of money there.
ReplyDeleteAfraid so!
DeleteGlad you boys had a good time! Hello from McDonalds, eating a greasy sausage egg and cheese biscuit. My arteries are cloggin with each bite!!
ReplyDeleteGigging will sort out the calories woman!
DeleteLooks like a great time was had and those set ups are rad.
ReplyDeleteThose games look amazing. And it looks like you guys had a pretty good time.
ReplyDeleteI see Ray likes to wear a lot of red. They say it's the colour of passion.
Glad a good time was enjoyed by all!
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures!
ReplyDeleteGood stuff :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you guys had so much fun!
ReplyDeleteA nice report. I think Ray was everywhere...
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. Looks like a good time was had by all.
ReplyDeletesounds like a good place but not so nice experience on your part. lets hope that you feel better for the next one. trust me I would make sure that ray was kept in line. besides I have got 7 years experience in martial arts and I am a good long distance runner, I assume ray has neither. so even if he snuk off during a game I would catch up... just trying to get invited along :-) and if you two are ever in NZ I will come and meet you.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking tables for sure! Now go get some sleep.
ReplyDeleteChristopher
Nice coverage, good to see you guys having fun.

ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun time! Beautiful shots of those games, very nice looking layouts.
ReplyDeleteKeep it up!

How the heck do you choose a favorite? Missed you wearing your Burger King Crown :/
ReplyDeleteI've missed you my friend. Good to see you're still at it.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you back!
DeleteWow, those street lamps make that WW2 setup look so amazing.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great show and again with the MacDonalds, always with the MacDonalds.
ReplyDeleteSo many pictures of Ray.. Is that what love's like?
ReplyDeleteLOL
