[Big Phil]

Can't believe I haven't posted this yet.

8th year in a row. Same place, same laughs.....hopefully not the same amount of drinking!

I will be bringing my upright Firefox to this event, will also have a table with some related artefacts on display including a 1/24 model of the fictitious MiG-31 herself!

You had me at drinking, but a Firefox is the clincher!

I've not played a Firefox for years... I've got it running on my Jedi through Mame but I'm really keen to compare the Mame experience with the real deal...

See you in July...

Sadly I can't see mass gatherings being allowed as early as July 4th, so I have cancelled my hotel room whilst I still can.

Play Expo in Glasgow is postponed so don't get your hopes up guys...2nd wave will have hit us by that time...figures are creeping up again and idiots are going to the beaches in droves

Yep, I reckon you can write-off the rest of this year at least, before this kind of gathering is allowed again.

I am hearing this is officially cancelled now, which whilst not expected is a great shame. NERG is my favourite weekend away with my mates....with the exception of the Chicago arcade road trip of course.

Sadly due to the social distancing laws etc, its pretty much not practical to hold it this year.

Only a month away and with schools expecting to be partly open from the start of June and non essential shops starting to open mid June and the possibility of local Lockdowns occuring what with the north easts current higher R rate etc.

Also not sure when Hotels will be allowed to open yet, not seen any mention recently.

Sorry, I should have posted here last Thursday.

Yes, NERG 2020 is CANCELLED.

Stay tuned though as I'm looking to get some silly merchandise produced.
