  10. Superb photos Ray, some absolutely stonking games on the tables I must say!

    I liked the mirror use by the fantasy games it did give another dimension to the game.

    All the best and hopefully see you at Partizan next year.

    Cheers

    1. Yeh, that mirror confused me for a few seconds when I first saw it. I thought I was going crazy as the game was moving???

  11. Much better than Colours now. The Newbury show is not what is was. It seems ill organised with few demo games or anything else of interest for that matter. Colours also seems to be really short staffed by the club that runs it.

    1. We've not been to colours for a few years. There are so many good shows all around the same time, and my "Good Boy pass" doesn't stretch to far!
