Val Day bummer

Rotten luck. I had hoped to attend Val Day this year, and see both my Knight (Sir Morgan Olander), my foster (Sir Garth of the Crags) and one of my 'pole-arm gods' HRH Sir Tom.

Alas, real life has conspired against me.

Lost the brakes on my F150 and a new engine for the wifes car (it threw a rod), so ALL of my meager discretionary funds are gone (plus some) until ye olde tax refund gets back.....

I was really hoping to fight in what will be an excellent ToC, see a friend get elevated to the Chiv, and fight with my unbelt brothers, but......


GAHHHHHHH!!!!

Actually, the engine was $700 in and out.

The brakes will be about the same....

Go figure. :lol: :lol:

With 4 of us and my armor and Will's boffer stuff, prolly need a bus :lol:

Thanks for the thought, but it is also fairly close to the MiL, and she'd be really ticked if we went past without her seeing the grandkids (and I get along with her, so I try not to get on her bad side :wink: ).
