Well, the Brictoria Barracks has accomodation available for 2-5 [there are 2
single beds and floor space [as what was graciously provided to the visiting
Bric-torians earlier in the year.]] along with a double(?) bed and floor
space with Sue Ann...email the appropriate person to place a booking.
We were also planning on doing our trading on Saturday night if you're in
town...it saves transporting large collections of spares to the venue and
having them mixed into the battle.

Well, the Bric-torian troops will be safely in transitmode, resting in
preperation for the battle, so there's little chance of unexpected attack.
BTW, any one staying at the barracks is free to make use of the available
parts to assist in decorations for the battlefield.
