Premier Inn Trafford Centre West is the best placed, and a decent hotel too. That's gonna be the bar most of us end up at after the show!

Hi guys
I would have posted earlier but I've been catching up with sleep.
I've got to say I've had a fantastic time with collectors in the USA ,everyone has been so nice to me and have recived nothing but positive feedback with sky skipper reveal.
It's been exhausting to be honest but great fun.
The idea now is for me to do the same with my cab at replay Manchester.
Now I am not sure if Billy and walter can make it but John from johns arcade will be coming, which is fantastic.
I spent the whole weekend with John and I tell you what guys he is such a lovely guy.
He can't wait to come over and meet you guys and chat about your collections.
So I hope to see you all there.
Thanks again for your tremendous support it's been quite emotional to be honest.
Many thanks
Alex

Cracking work Alex. You guys did a sterling job. The events over the US are well worth a visit - some good guys over that side of the pond.

John seems like a super passionate guy - looking forward to meeting him (and seeing the UK Sky Skipper!).

Enjoyed everything about this project. I'm not sure we all realise how much effort has gone into this. Big congratulations to all involved and appreciate all your efforts in keeping these games alive. Hopefully there is more gems to uncover in the future

That's awesome! Hope they were directed to contact @ChuckieEgg and Whitney. It'd be great to see another cab created and help bring this game back from extinction.
