Hi guys good to see that there's some people up here on these forums as most of these kinda things all seam to be in the US or if there is anyone in the UK they would all be 100's of miles away.

Listening to Clyde 1 the other Sunday with Paddy and they where talking about retro games and their first computers games systems etc. Someone phoned in saying about a retro game expo somewhere I think in England and gave the jammy begger free tickets.

Is there anything like that in Scotland? Or does it just get added to the Scottish Comic Con in the SECC?

Get yourself to NERG in Gateshead

Or if you can't wait for NERG to come along check out the Game Masters Exhibition at Edinburgh, on until easter.

Not bad for a tenner and close to you.

I went at the weekend, I would recommend a week day if possible, I was on some of the cabs and I could hear the parent tutting and saying 'you think he would let the kids on'

 

[tazfaedodge]

I was thinking about doing just that, as my weekends have been booked for the next few weeks I'm needed as a driver for the family.

I would have been saying that I've paid just the same as everyone else (prob apart from the kids that get in for free) and should be able to have a fair go at playing a game. Some people that think that their kids should get special treatment just cos they think that they should and not cos they do have special needs.

I have aspergers and my nephew and niece both are on the spectrum as well and we can all cue and wait our turn.
