I've just finished playing a few games on the Flash Gordon set up in my room . Sealed a deal at 4 am this morning on the way down in the truck with the London boys and it was delivered tonight. They plan to carry it down the hall to the "party room" sometime tonight......


Congrats!!! Looking forward to playing that gem.

Let's just say today brought something else and it involves HUO and Lymen Sheats  

And it'll be set up for the OPL meeting in a few weeks.


Exactly how big is that van Team London is driving?   I suspect it's going to be a crowded drive back.

I'll give my review tomorrow night when I get home. Just about to cruise into London within the hour. Unload the van in the am and head to Ottawa tomorrow then unload again! Luckily Gus is bringing my FG home otherwise it was going on the roof.

Absolutely a blast of a trip thanks to the London boys. The people I met were amazing and had a great talk with Mrs Brian Eddy. She's going to get Brian to send me a special treat for my MM .

And man was that autograph session fun. Greg Freres and Brian Eddy gave me an extra surprise present and Dennis Nordman was amazing. An absolute highlight was having him sign my POTC translite and talking antiques and woodworking about Project X!

What a trip!!!!

Dennis Nordman is very generous with his time.  A real gentleman.

HEY! HEY! HEY! I finally made it home safe and sound...Left Chicago Sunday morning at 7h30 AM, picked up a pin in Detroit and another one in Windsor.....arrived home at 5h00 AM Monday morning got 1 hour and 49 minutes of sleep and back to work!!! Man!!! I love this!!!!

The show was a blast again this year, although I was expecting a bit more this year for their 25th years. I met a lot of people and the Pinbrawl was exiting too.

My two "coups de coeur" (highlights) of the show were:

1) Goldeyes, very cool and fun pin...a bit easy, but very fun to play...actually, I would mind having one.
2) Frankenstein, a bit more challenging than Goldeyes, but very interesting as well....

Doing the 5-Man-Mayhem tourney was exceptional as well....a lot of fun. The "gathering" at Terri's was great too...nice pins...

Hope everyone made it safe and sound home....

Next year any one????
