Today has been spent at the Crisis show in Antwerp. It’s been another good one. It’s the largest mainland europe show in the calendar , with a good range of traders and games. It benefits from being in a great city too. We will certainly be back next year , combining a great show with the history of the Low Countries , good Belgian beer and food... well what’s not to like .
So learning from last year I decided to have lie in and leisurely breakfast - our hotel is about 20 minutes walk away. - and decided to turn up for 10.30 to save queueing . Some hope , there was still a full queue , but at least it moved quickly , taking about 15 minutes to get in overall .

My queue joining point . |
Another learning from last year was to take cash , as there isn’t a cash machine on site, and not many traders take card or Paypal.. it also costs 0.5 euro to go to the loo !
I had a small shopping list , pocket money in hand , and friends to chat too .
I met up with Sander and Arthur , handing over my challenge painting items, next up was Stefan Ko and Sidney Roundwood (aka Adam! ) . I had a good chat with Colin and Katherine re the Kenilworth event next year too.
There were plenty of good looking games on display , so here is the montage . Sorry I didn’t note the providers or clubs . I will do the stash post next
