Little Wars Centenary - it's on!

There is wild excitement as I prepare to set off for the Little Wars Centenary Event at Sandhurst this weekend!  No less a person than King Boris III of Forbodia (pictured below) has been supervising the loading of my car with not only his army, but other essentials including champagne and a very large sponge cake.  Hurrah!
There will no doubt be more news of this event when I return.

    England expects that every tin soldier will do his duty.

    Looking forward to your battle report. Have you packed the ascot and straw boater?

    Cheers

    Forbodia fully expects the plastic ones to die trying!

    Suitable garments have been packed.

    The weather is fine at the moment, but it pi**ed it down several times en route.

    Hurrah for King Boris. I trust Forbodia shall acquit itself well on the field of honour.

    Sponge cake, an essential munition!
    If you come up against Brian, watch out for my old Emir's Guard!

    Otherwise, have fun!
