There was so much going on, I got distracted from using the camera, but I took some video I'll post shortly. I did take one picture because (due to my odd sense of humour) I thought it funny... better than a blue screen of death I suppose...

Pinball Expo organiser and all round nice guy Rian (on the right)....sorry the flash didn't work  @.@

Note that Rian is only 27 years old - what an achievement and it was fantastic to see him really enjoy himself

This is Petershame Town Hall - where the event was held. Real nice venue and very art deco inside.
