A very busy week

It's been a busy week, heralding a busy month or more of hobby activities that will keep me happily occupied for weeks to come. All of this is part of my 'cunning plan' set in motion months before. But do you plan this far ahead or am I just more peculiar than I already know I am?


Please check out Johnathan's report on his blog Palouse Wargaming Journal of the game he ran for the Rejects on Monday. I expect part two will be available a few days after our final game this coming Monday and victory is still up for grabs by any side. It's going to be exciting!

Partizan Show Report

I have finally finished my show report for the 2022 Partizan Wargames Show in Newark. This was my first Partizan (yes I know, inexcusable!) but it won't be my last. I had a fantastic time enjoying some eye-watering beautiful games, brilliantly fun participation games, a wide selection of trade stands and excellent conversation all day. As usual, I shot hundreds of pictures and most of them are in this photo report, so it's a bit long, but I hope you enjoy it. 


Pour yourself a glass of Port (or your beverage of choice), get comfortable and enjoy some of the wargames eye-candy from this year's show.

A Rejects Road-trip to Partizan

Posties Rejects will be heading up north(ish) to Newark this Sunday for the Partizan Wargames Show. I'm ashamed to admit it, but this will be my FIRST Partizan!! The rest of the group has been several times before but for reasons that escape me I have never been able to get the required 'day pass' to attend. With the cancellation of Cavalier in February and Salute in April this year I am desperate for a wargaming fix and Partizan fits the bill perfectly. 

Several members of the Rejects will be going and some of us will even be wearing our Rejects shirts with our names and the group logo on them, so please feel free to ambush us and say hello. I for one don't expect to get much shopping done as I am looking forward to a whole day of chin-wagging with friends new and old.

Meaningful Connections

It's the end of Mental Health Awareness Week here in the UK and this got me thinking (not for the first time) about the Meaningful Connections I have made through my hobby and how important they are for good mental health.
