Like Killjoy I would love* to go to Gencon but for the price of the flights.  I recall that some Acaeum members who live in Texas meet every now and again.  Do many others meet up?  And, I would be happy to organise a UK Collectors meet - if people are interested.






* maybe next year  :D

Sounds good to me.

I have to get across to London for some CPD hours before the end of November.

Well, anyone coming to a Penn State game should let me know.  I'd enjoy meeting up with some Acaeum brothers.


Let mirth prevail!

Next year's GenCon in Reading is a must. I assume you'll all be there?

And I'm going to Claymore next weekend (August 5th). It's at Meadowbank Stadium in Edinburgh and opens at 10.00am IIRC. It's mostly tabletop warfare, but there's usually a good second hand stall (for charity), a good spread of dealers, and an auction (No PoVQs or RPGA pre-pub's I'm afraid.)


This week I've been mostly eating . . . chicken and wild rice soup.

We're planning a trip back to South Jersey for the end of August-ish through the early-middle of September-ish.  I haven't been out to PSU since 1991, I'm sure it's changed a lot (is Book Swap/Comic Swap still there and run by Chris?).

My Aunt in Wilmington DE is in bad shape; if I end up back east for the funeral I might hop across the CommoBarry and go shoot some pool in Vineland, like in the old days...

We've got a discussion about a South Jersey meet-up going, Frank, over on DF @ http://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=18859 if you'd like to try to plan a visit at the same time?
