Ticket for Saturday purchased.

So what are we doing? Friday or Saturday night stopover with show Saturday or Sunday? Just so I know what to book - I'm happy to split a room with you Col, although you may need earplugs. EDIT - So having done what I should have done in the first place and read the bloody thread, I've booked a twin room at the cherry hinton HIE for the Friday night. I'll book a ticket for the Saturday show as well. My IWM membership will still be valid too so will be a little cheaper. Flying list looks good - is that the Seafire that belly landed in France several years back? Unfortunately, I will have to fight my way down to Cambridge through the rush hour traffic (I won't be able to leave before 5) so I may have to go direct to the curry house but that won't be a problem - Whoever's making that reservation, could we make it 7:30 - 8 rather than any earlier please? EDIT the second - Show ticket and car park pass for the Saturday booked.

I noticed the Russian lady. The Mark IV we are getting is the most numerous built and quite a few were lend lease to Russia, fighting at Kursk and Prokorhovka. The Normandy version is the better one, the Mark VII, a much better armoured and different beast that didn't appear until 1944. The Dieppe raid used Mark IIIs and North Africa and Italy were also Mark IIIs. Not to say there weren't any modified and used latterly but I don't think the Churchill we are getting is for westernising the Bodenplat or Normandy maps I'm afraid. Makes me think that TC 2 could be Battle of Kursk.

Unfortunately wifey is using the car on the friday so I wont be able to make it. Defo next year!

Chaps, I have been double booked to go to my mate Pete’s 60th birthday celebration on the 10th Sept. His son has arranged an indoor karting event followed by a meal so I cannot decline. Once again circumstances conspire to interrupt my Dogging ! 🙁
