Well, I survived the drive home (more than can be said for a lot of the models,
oh well :) ). A big thanks to Richie and James for their organizing skillz.
I’ve uploaded the few low quality pictures of the Sunday I took with my antique
digital camera (grumble grumble - a poor workman blames his tools etc). There’s
a lot of stuff I missed so I’m hoping to see other people’s piccies up soon!

Some of the highlights of the day for me were:
The Impromptu building competition
This was a lotta fun. Trying to portray such ideas ranging from trucks to
communism with a single Designer set was extremely challenging, however some of
the results were suprisingly innovative.
‘Partsies’
I wasn’t involved in this, so it’d be better to hear from someone who was, but
from what I could gather there was some purhcasing of interesting sets and
frantic divvying of pieces.
Brikwars
By the time we had finished aforementioned fun activities, there was
unfortunately little time left for Brikwars. What there was was cool as usual,
The Queensbrikian Expeditionary force had a glorious victory (well, at least a
glorious tactical retreat), capturing some valuable GoldDomium, as well as
several cans of coke, without suffering a single casualty:
(The team pose with the stolen goodies)
All in all, a great day was had by all.
That’s all (from me, at least)
