And for something totally unrelated; I knew I had seen John Coutts, of Westerhope Wargames Group before. Here he is looking remarkably like the guy that used to present Police Five, all those years ago on Tyne Tees Television.
The Independent Wargames Group. Being a Journal of views, prejudices, ideas and photographs of wargaming not just nationwide, but hopefully world wide. The name IWG was adopted in the early 1980's in response to the then dominant Wargames Research Group, but things have moved on, and wargaming appears to be in somewhat of a Golden Age, so sit back and hopefully enjoy my rantings.

ReplyDeleteBrian,
DeleteHe is the spitting image of that guy who used to front the show, maybe he was his love child.
I can't remember ever having that much hair!!-this was a very early wargames show in Durham castle,organised by Derek Sharman.

Evening John,
DeleteI sadly missed that show, which was a classic by all accounts. Derek Sharman was ahead of his time as regards putting on a wargames show. I am very intrigued about the figures though. Are they Prince August?
I was at that show in the Castle- as a punter. We were in the process of moving up here from Manchester. Man Was that a few years back or What!
