Day 1 successful so far ! Met Blaine and Daniel in Peterborough. Can't wait to see what Blaine and his class will do with the Joust cocktail vid ... however long it takes !  Hooked-up with Dan and played his awesome game collection. Necro, Squid, Vengeance and Sparky showed-up too. Looking forward to meeting the other folks at Playdium on Saturday. (...espcially those I need to trade goods for [ MonkeyBug, Steel/Marktoo, Terry ] ) Cheers, Steph |

SUCCESS !!! Delivered all goods, picked-up all items, .... and didn't lose any piece along the way (...I just hope people got the right machines ! )  It was a blast to see everyone and finally put a fact to the names. I must have met about 20 MAACA/TOPL folks while I was there. BIG BIG thanks to Dan (BallyBoy) for hosting his party on Friday night and letting me stay at his place overnight. Trip highlights: =========== Meeting the folks Playing free pinball Dan's personal collection of pins Meeting Elvira (see pics in the other post..) Having 8 guys load-up the Defender in my truck Driving 10Km on HWY 416 with the trailer hatch open... Trip Low-lights ========== Being at an auction with 400 games and knowing that bringing anything back home will lead to an immediate be-heading Spending over an hour at U-haul returning the damn trailer ... and then being "trapped" in the parking lot as moron upon moron returned their rented trucks and left them right and the entrance causing a massive clutter. I basically had to drive across their front lawn, and down the sidewalk to get out... But I'm home safely and all is good !  Cheers, Steph |

Cheers, Steph
Oh, Oh    I thought you said Defender was one of the lighter arcades???? Thanks again for doing that for me and I hope it didn't cause too much trouble picking that up for my friend. You helped convert a new collector at least  You're awesome Steph I only wish that trailer had been delivering to MY house!  Have a well deserved Sunday with the family ME |

Yah, I know... The look on her face when I took the game down to her basement tells me I'll likely be doing this again in the not too distant future... At least she's got good taste in games !  Steph |

You are the best Steph. I didn't expect you to take it down to the basement. I was going to go over and do that for her. Thanks definitely from me for going the extra mile. Now maybe I'll finish off AFM today with uninterrupted time. I owe you! ME |
