    Right, I'm turning 40 next week, so if anyone is interested in coming along to a party I'm having in mine, please PM me!
    There will be games served in the Gamesroom, although you may circulate with the regular folk as well if you like!
    It'll be the evening of the 14th of Jan, that's a Saturday folks!

    Atavan rang me NYE when he was in the pub and said he's hosting the next beers with Obscure/Obscure 2 and he also said Overblood is the best game he's played this year. :P

    Ok, so my 40th is changed to the 13th, at least I won't have to get up the morning after for work!
    So, if anyone wants to come along, more the merrier, plus there will be arcade and retro in the gamesroom!

    I'd be very disappointed if the party didn't have one of these:

    Ok so, thanks to Kerbdog, my Taito G-Net is a go, and I'll have a couple of CF Cards to flash as well.
    Got another Supergun and this time it has a S-Video and Composite out so as to be nice and compatible with as much as possible, including the projector.
    It also has sockets for Neo Geo sticks, and I have an AES one and about to pick up another, thanks Pyongyang!
    So, if you are free on Friday please come along.
    I promise not to ban any non-attendees...
    Although, I might, I'm pretty petty at heart. :)

    Tbh I don't know if anyone is going, aside from Retr0 and Sera... :(
    I posted up here about it but it's been quite quiet about it...

    Cidey No Mates, that's me...
    Too much time spent here and not enough meeting real people (although personally I reckon it's all over-rated)

    atavan-halen, if you're coming across the city will you be passing near Sunnyside?

    I'll swap you all my best Pokemon cards for a lift:

    If atavan-halen can't I can give you a lift.

    Has mister Ciderdude got a chipped PS1 in case there's disappointment at the lack of Overblood? I put my copy in the attic last night but have my 'backup' on hand.

    Good stuff. I should be finished in a timely manner in work today as well. And I got a full 8 hours sleep last night too so no need for a nap.
