    Once again IPMS Avon & Lincombe Barn Wargaming Society are pleased to present this years Modelling & Wargaming show held at Thornbury Leisure Centre BS35 3JB just north of Bristol.
    This years show is even larger as it expands into a 4th hall full of modelling & gaming clubs, traders & displays.

    For more info see the show website ipmsavon.org.uk/shows.php
    Though please be aware the site isn’t completely up to date with the Wargaming clubs or traders.

    Highlights include a B&B run by Lincombe Barn for both wargamers & modellers, an Art de la Guerre competition run by Berkeley Vale, awards for the best demo & participation games & a special class for Wargames units in the Modelling & Painting competition. The latter was one of the better supported classes last year.

    For more info please ask here or contact me direct at [email protected].

    I went, with my son, who had a great time – mainly I suspect because of the purchase of a 1:48 Tornado IDS variant kit, although greatly enhanced by not being made to get involved in any wargaming (quite  a lot there this time by the look of things) and the availability of pizza.

    I looked but didn’t see any of the above usual suspects – sorry I missed you all.

    Sorry you couldn’t make it Mike, but I feel better knowing I didn’t miss you because of my eyesight.

    I couldn’t make it either due to a simply exhausting 12 hour day at work the day before.

    Rodge, Shaun and myself went down for the day.

    It is a good show and the addition of wargames is a good idea.

    Talking to a few of the exhibitors, there are quite a few IPMS shows and they seem keen to include a wargaming element to these shows
