It was Charlie who got me seriously into wargaming when he presented the battle of Otterburn, with the appropriate figures inside Morpeth town hall about 1974/5. It took me a long and roundabout route but I did compleate a collection of my own Otterburn figures and owe Charlie still more thanks for his pointers towards researching the heraldry for the combatants.<br />http://thenorthumbrianwargamer.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Medieval<br />If you see Charlie at any of the shows do introduce yourself, he will always find time for like minded people, a top chap.<br />Dave.Dave Huntley (sheepman)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14728830987896678578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1558595533686058562.post-58482076760426929762015-07-19T08:00:40.290-07:002015-07-19T08:00:40.290-07:00Fabulous - I am a huge fan of CW - never met the m...Fabulous - I am a huge fan of CW - never met the man, but much of my continuing enthusiasm for wargaming is down to buying his "orange" book, at a time when I was getting a bit disillusioned with the hobby. It would not be appropriate to suggest there was a regional aspect to this, but I never felt he received all the recognition that was his due.<br /><br />Looking forward very much to next instalment - thanks very much for this.MSFoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470241067504971068noreply@blogger.com
