Hi all,
Hope you are well?
With Woking taking place tomorrow I thought I would drop a message that I will be organising another Northern 54mm Games Weekend at Element Games in Stockport.
It will follow the same format as last year with a number of hosted games on the Saturday and then a big battle on the Sunday.
I will be speaking with Element next week to check whether the weekends I have in mind 23/24 September or 30 September/1 October are available.
All the best,
Antony

Antony,
For what it's worth, I can do either weekend at the moment.
Cheers Anthony

Hi Antony,
I didn't manage to make the weekend last year due to Avanti's diabolically bad train service but I'm keen to try again this year. Thanks for oorganising.

I too had to cancel last year due to train issues. I am very keen to come this year. Have we arrived upon a date? I am very likely free on both these weekends. Looking forward to it and thank you for arranging it Alan

Hi all,
In discussions with Element but going for 30 September/1 October.
I need to get an idea of numbers to help with finalising arrangements for whether we book 11 tables now to secure space or have to wait and book later in the year and see who else is using the gaming centre that weekend.
Thanks
Antony

I'm on for that. Hopefully Avanti will have finally kicked out and a decent rail service restored by then.

Hi all,
So, my plans for using Element have fallen through as they would not allow me to book the weekend without paying £275. Initially I baulked but following a discussion with my wife we decided that Imperial Miniatures will subsidise the weekend. I got back in touch only to be told that they now have something else booked in but offered the weekend of 20/21 October.
I still want us to go for 30 September/1 October so I am looking to book the community centre in Poynton. I have been in touch and the weekend is free and I am going to have a visit next week.
For those travelling there is a Travelodge in Poynton and a Premier Inn in Tytherington which is 15 minutes away by car/taxi. Poynton gives us lots of options for a meal on the Friday and Saturday nights.
Those travelling by train can get to Macclesfield and Stockport mainline stations and I am happy to pick people up from there or one of the local stations.
Stay tuned.

Good luck with that Anthony. A great time last year so I hope we can repeat the experience again this year. See you at Phalanx
