Prestonpans Wargames show - a wargaming soirée



On Saturday, I headed east for a new wargaming show from the Scottish Battlefields Trust. 

Not only was it based in the historic small East Lothian coastal town of Prestonpans, it was held in the most convivial surroundings of the Prestoungrange Gothenburg, or 'Goth' - a Grade II listed building with over 100 years of history. 

And most importantly, it is a bar, bistro and a micro-brewery!

Fun with livestock



On Monday I was involved with a bit of sheep rustling. Or maybe it was cows. Sometimes I get confused. And there were some unearthly noses coming from the pig pen. In amongst all the shouts of panicked alarm and gangs of villainous riders appearing out of the early morning mist.
