Had an absolute blast! Rav your place is awesome!
Thanks to Rav for opening up his colection to all of us yesterday. Great to see the old school guys again and meet a few new people. For anyone who's not been highly recommend going to the next meet. Where else could you see and play up to 100 classic vids?
Favourite game of the day for me was Zookeeper, surprisinigly addictive. Also enjoyed some competition on Gyruss and Time Pilot.
Thanks again and hope to see you all and more next time in early Sept.
Cheers
Greg

Just got home from Rav's as usual one of the last to leave
Big big thanks to uncle Rav and Mum (Sam) for putting up (and up with) Ade Baz and myself.
Was awesome to see the "usual suspects" and to make some new friends.
Pictures will be going up on facebook and here when im back online.
Once again great meet cant remember the last time i laughed so much (probably the last time we were all together, that bruce is a bad influence on me )
Got some great gaming in good food great company, just what the doc ordered!
Hope to see you all at the next one!!

Ok you asked for it...
And you can't "un-ask" for it!
And yes, hang over (which lasted most of the day) and yes 2 and a 1/2 hours there and 2 and a 1/2 hours back is too much driving for me, any more than an hour and I get the hump!
Normally I can talk sh*t for England and you can't shut me up, esp when arcade related, was I bit silent compared to normal, If I'm invited to sept, I will stay over nearby so I will be fresh in the morning.
Regreted not speaking to some of you as much, and regreted not asking Alpha1 nicely if I could have turned on his Hard Drivin'.
Enjoy...
Nice to finally meet some of you!
The Atari rebound was the b*ll*cks!!
And Ice Cool Beer is so cool for a electrical mechanical game.

nice set of pics there fella - amazing how the majority are taken with the row of cabs inquestion turned off I treid to even the rows on/rows off thruout the day and hopefully next time i can get the 32A->64A feed so allot more could be on at once
Glad you made the effort and great to meet you!

Yeah the reason I took them when most were turned off was I didn't want to pi*s people off taking pics with a flash, as they were going for hi scores, so instead waited until everyone had turned a couple of rows off (and moved across) then got in there.
Just seeing all the cabs and artwork is cool and gives others an idea of what we were playing.
Thanks again dude.
P.S:- Out of all your cabs I would love to own 1st Mr Do! (I love that universal cabinet)
2nd Bubble Bobble.
Although you have some ultimate cabs they would just be my choice as those games were my era as a kid.
