Posh Lard 2022 -Saturday September 24th 10am to 5pm

Post by TroubleAtTheMill »

We’re back!

The venue has changed from previous years to the George Alcock Centre, Whittlesey Rd, Stanground, Peterborough PE2 8QS, handily available just off the parkway to the SE of town. There will be food and a bar available on site.

The games available are still under discussion, but will include for definite:

Chef du Pont (yes, finally) – 15mm IABSM in the flooded waters of the Meredet on D-Day – Peterborough
O-Group - one or two possible games
Sharp Practice

and other games subject to confirmation (there’s at least two on the cards)…

We're aiming to make a food menu available to attendees for lunch, which you will be able to order from when you arrive, and also place an advance order for breakfast (likely sausage or bacon rolls). Watch this space (again) for details.

Anyone else interested in bringing anything else, please drop us a note at lard@peterborough-wargames-club.org.uk (please be aware, though, that until we have a confirmed idea of numbers, there will be a limit on the number of games we can immediately accept).

Tickets available for purchase here, admission £5.

Apologies, but Paypal are (inevitably) being temperamental at present - please watch this space while we get it sorted.

First off, apologies for the radio silence, which has been due to a combination of work, the heat and a much needed vacation.

Things to be aware of:

- if you’ve signed up you should have just received an email.

- the list of games will be out Wednesday next week, at which point I will be asking people for choices. (I’m in the middle of contacting the folks who’ve already offered.)

- If you’re interested in putting on a game and haven’t had email from me, do drop me an email ASAP.

- Iff you haven’t signed up yet, we have fixed our issue with PayPal (after actually managing to talk to a human being!) so you will now be able to pay via PayPal as well as card or Apple Pay.

Tickets can be purchased from https://www.peterborough-wargames-club. ... lard-2022/

Best wishes, and hoping to see some of you at Posh Lard,
