Meet at mine / Arc-Aid catchup 13th~15th November

[LAZORIAN]

Hi all, its about time I had a meet so I am organizing one.

The plan is to go to the Cambridge Computer Museum during the day to catch up on the cabs' progress and do a few jobs then back to mine later for food, games & drinks. I live about 10 minutes drive away.

Anyone is welcome to come along either on the Friday night before, anytime Saturday at the museum or at mine or even Sunday.
There isn't much space at mine but I could put up a couple of people if you don't mind an inflatable mattress on the floor. Breakfast provided!

The lineup might change but here are my games to play:
Pacmania, Phoenix, Return of the Jedi, Mr. Do, Moon Patrol, Gyruss, DK Cocktail and hopefully Pole Position cockpit.
There are also all manner of retro computers and games consoles available courtesy of my housemates collection.

Hope some of you can make it, would love to catch up with some of you again.
Drop in, stay 10 minutes, stay a while, play some games, whatever.

Reply to this topic or drop me a pm if you're interested.

Ian.

I'll be there Friday evening, Saturday & leaving Sunday morning. Looking forward to catching up and playing some games

A full Arc-aid won't happen until next year so this meet is very welcome!! Nice one Ianski.

Sounds good and would love to - but alas it's too far for me.

 

[LAZORIAN]

No worries Martin, hopefully see you again some time in the new year

Hey Ianski

I would love to come over on Saturday afternoon / evening.

Would it be ok to crash on the floor somewhere and leave on Sunday?

The chance to see for the first time and play on a real Mr Do! cab is not to be missed.

I will have to get the train to Cambridge, is it far to get to your place by taxi / bus? I dont drive and last time we met Roger kindly drove me to the Arc-Aid / Steve's meet-up.

This time I will show you how to smash your PB on Mr Do! 300k+ will be yours!

Cheers, please let me know by PM if it is ok to come.

Thanks.

Hey mate yes of course you can come it would be great to see a proper game being played on my Do.

It's going to be a bit rough and ready for sleeping arrangements but we will work something out, no worries!

I will no doubt pick up Nes4Life from the train station so you are welcome to jump in the car with us if you arrive a similar time, it will save the cost of a taxi

Yeah its not easy picking a date when it suits people, its why I've left it open over a couple of days.

Well no worries Alex hope to catch up with you again soon

I will probably make the Friday night if that's ok?
I have the kids on Saturday.
I was planing on a meet the weekend before but time is not on my side.
I will sort one in January and will have a few new games for all to play.

See you Friday.

 

[LAZORIAN]

Great stuff Steve look forward to seeing you

 

[bonehead]

I will also return your gorf manual as I have now got one at last along with my 12 faulty pcb sets!!!
I still need to help you check your out for your cab.

 

[Bensonrad]

I would have loved to have come up, but am actually away in Bristol that weekend for a big birthday bash (family related so very much tied to it). I will defo come to one of these events one day!!

Cheers
Ben

i have tried to amend some plans but it doesn't look like i can make it

 

[LAZORIAN]

Bump!

This is happening next Friday night / weekend.

Over 700 views for this thread!
No love for the games / me? Lol.

Don't be shy if you want to come along to mine or meet up at the museum

 

[bonehead]

As before put me on the list for Friday night.
Cheers

 

[LAZORIAN]

You're most welcome Steve.
If you want a space to crash so you can drink let me know.
Otherwise at your convenience.

Look foreward to seeing those who are coming

 

[Nes4life]

Can't wait!

 

[t-m]

I completely missed that this was happening

I should be able to make it down Friday night, maybe daytime on Saturday. Will be good to see you all again!

PS: Steve - I have the new ROM for your Star wars pin, i'll try and remember that...

Literally just received the Tempest board from Jason. No promises given the tight timescale but I will do my best to turn it round and get it back before next weekend. I'll plug it in and have an initial nose later tonight.
