Bolt Action: Western Desert Boot Camp Live Blog - Friday
Unsung Heroes: Jen
Big thank you to Jennifer (@gladesrunner) who has come all the way from Florida to do the dishes! We hope @oriskany knows just how lucky he is to have such a wonderful woman by his side!
Teamwork makes the dream work!
Everyone was working so hard building entire armies, the least I could do was fuel the troops with coffee and tea!
Am army marches on its stomach and the commonwealth doesn’t do anything without a cup of tea on board first and the Germans love coffee so good work!
And sweets and cookies.
you were a great military support at the Camp Jen
It was truly my pleasure @christianhou52 ,as @collins and a certain historical editor I know have said, an army travels on its stomach. I figure the same rule applies to gamers and playing on their stomachs … uh I don’t think that game out right 🙂
hi Jennifer! guessing you didn’t have this level of excitement in mind?
Coffee, tea and dishes were nothing. Later I got to serve curry chicken and chips to 30 starving gamers and staff who hadn’t eaten for 8 hours. Next time I’ll just take it easy and build an army in a day like everyone else.
Are we going to a match up between Jen and Cass.
Absolutely! That girl has some seriously great taste in games!
Wow. I could use some help with dishes too. Where do I sign up?
Easy, @mc1gamer just host a boot camp for 24 site members and I’ll be glad to help!
I’ll get right on that 😉 All the way from Florida huh? I’m looking to eventually make my way to one of their bootcamps, but a little closer, I’m in NJ.
*Thumbs up!
Why thank you @Rot6 but the stories I get to listen to more than pay back my efforts. Lets just say I’m getting quit the education.
And they’re all true @gladesrunner! …………………well,………..mostly ?
Whhhaaat? Tales heard in pubs over multiple pints of Guinness aren’t all true?????
Jen, I think you earned yourself a truckload of brownie points :p
Thank you @Sneakyrabbit but can I have a truckload of brownies instead?
What are brownie points for if not redeeming them for sugary goodness 😉
Too true @sneakyrabbit! I redeemed mine for first dibs on the pastries that were brought in Saturday and Sunday morning.
That’s my girlie! 😀 😀 😀
please treat her nice boys!!
They were all perfect gentlemen @toricova I didn’t buy my own drinks all boot camp. Some even…if you can believe it…washed their own mug and spoon!!!!!
Hooray for Jen!
Thank you so very much for looking after us all, some of us need it more than most. ?
Thanks are appreciated @brucelea but not needed. It was just my own little way of participating.
How sweet is that <3 I wonder if I can talk my boyfriend into coming along and make coffee while I paint and play…
Well @aurorainbag if he won’t, I will!!!! I’m always up for a visit to Northern Ireland.
Hahahahaha! Deal 🙂
Get this woman an army and a game!
Man your station’s.?
GROOOOOOOAN!
Tell the lot of them to take a “spade in the desert” and do some shopping.
It must help that she doesn’t have an army to build. I would think but maybe she does…
No army to build @spacewolflord ,but an army to feed.
Jen rocks @gladesrunner thanks so much for looking after us Jen you’re an angel xxx
You guys kept me well entertained and educated @buggeroff ! Thanks for the Dublin tips.
no problem what so ever, did you get to see much?
It’s the unsung heroes that make the difference!
Too true @fireblarney , and I would like to thank the partners, wives, husbands of all the participants and the crew, for putting up with loosing their loved ones for a weekend.
Wonderful woman!
Thank you @warlordcharlie but I’m really just trying to earn points for when I need @Oriskany to clean up his hobby stuff so I can have our table back.
Very nice of her.
A very nice comment @rbwgames especially for someone with such a cranky icon.
Go Jen
Go @daverouge for participating in the community!
People in the background making it all happen.
