A warm-up game vs Mark, then two competition games at TOIL vs Matt and David. Not all four on a weekend, becasue of a drop out on day two.

Hepburn - for my mum!

 Bad Squiddo Audrey Hepburn, from Annie's Community Miniatures fame. When you read up about her WWII early life, she was something of a bad arse, and then her UNICEF work was incredible too. My mum loves her work especially Robin and Marian, so this is part of her Mother's Day Present. Annie had her sculpted in her iconic 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' dress. She even has the cat on her shoulder So, happy mother's day Pin!
