Only joking  lol

Looking forward to it very much. Especially running your game, what with my extensive knowledge of the Samurai and Warhammer, what could go wrong ;) :D

You could have kept that one going for at least another couple of days  ;)

Think we should - just to say hello and put faces to names.

There again, we say the same thing every year, and then about 4 people turn up! (Then afterwards, about 100 LAFers say they were there and wished they'd said hello  ;)  ::))

So, let's pick a time and a spot for a 10 minute LAF rendezvous, and a quick bit of speed-dating!  :)

Maybe early afternoon. once everyone's spending-lust is sated?

Well I vote for 1pm at jimbibbly's Oshiro model stand, seeing as how he intends to have me shackled to the display game all day, I will need a dose of LAF talk to help get me through the day... :D

Hmm. Can we make it 1.30? I think I'd said I'd say hello to the Steve Dean Forum meet at 1pm!
(Ah, the busy social whirl...  ;))

I'll try and remember to drop by and say hello, in between spending my pocket monies.
It's a great way to make foes for life, is meeting people you've only ever spoken to via the internet...

Aye we'll be there... I'll be dressed as an Anglican Reverend and I think Slug will be a member of the blackshorts, got a special piece on the table for the VBCW game. Stinky will be with us too, well have to start the lads young eh?

Really looking forward to the two Frothers Games too, mainly buying scenics this year, but imagine there'll be the usual temptations.

If you see us and feel like saying "Hello" please do... met a fair few folks last year thanks to Slug having a fez on... like you do.

I'll be there with members of Newark Irregulars, running my large Abyssinia 1935 game using Triumph and Tragedy.  We have what looks like a busy location right next to the main entrance and Gripping Beast!

Back to building terrain... :)

Yaaarp. I'll be there somewhere behind the Empress stand.
Last year it was nearer 3pm before I could get away, but if anyone is passing then please stop and say hello  :)

I'll say hello, probably even spend spend some money. Will you have the Rorke's Drift characters on sale? 8)
Well I've lead an evil life, so they say, but I'll outrun the Devil on judgement day.

Getting to it was hard enough... three deep when I first tried. :o

Yep. Should have plenty of everything if you are early enough.
Who knows, but last year I think we were running out of a lot of things by the afternoon.

I've got a cunning plan, I'm not going to wash for a fortnight and wear a big fuck off rucksack! That should clear me some space to maneuver  >:D

Umm, so, how will that be different from the other NKG (Never Kissed a Girl) attendees not of this board?   :D ;D

I will be there. My manager has offered me a wheeled cabin bag for my shopping to save me further elbow and shoulder injuries  :)
I'm not a mercenary. Killing's more of a hobby for me.
