Hello Bob,

got the docs at the weekend. All look good to me. Might want to think about Victory conditions ie what constitutes:

Total
Partial
Draw

Either way and also associate possession of various landmarks/ casualty levels etc with the above. That will give both sidea a steer on how to win/lose.

I'll be there

cheers

Hi Bob, please count my head in - just the one of them! I've watched your "baby" grow over the years and know this can't be missed.

Hopefully I'll see a lot of you guys at the Falkirk show this Saturday where Barry and myself are putting on a part of the Borodino game.

Bob

I'll be there - and really looking forward to it!

If you are still deciding 'who will be who', if I could put forward a preference I'd like to be Russian!!


See you June.

Angus,

Is it an Orkney trait whereby it's compulsory to play the accordian one-handed whilst holding a wee dram in the other?

Gentlemen,

Bob has everything ready to go for the Alma battle and we plan to meet at the hall from 6.30. As many hands as possible required for a big table.

See you on Friday guys.
