Fantastic show and a lot of work for all involved but what a great crew.
Funny I  didn't realise the absence of "Cookie Cutters" like Adams Family" until it was mentioned but there was stiil a good variety with definitely no complaints.
The number of people with their own machines who thought there was no one else out there with one was amazing.
There was also a long line of people with non working machines who will keep our two local techs busy for years.
A number of machines also changed hands so expect a number of newbies joining the forum over the next little bit.
Our 20 page program went down well with the punters as did the AP key rings that Gav supplied....people love free stuff.
Great to put faces to names and Gav is certainly a top guy but Mike Homepin that is another story. <.> He did win the silent auction for the David Hankin autographed Orbit 1 back glass so he went home a happy man.
Just to back up the recent comments from those that were actually there and involved. It was rewarding to see the Newcastle Pinball Association event was free of any the politics of pinball.
The venue owner was that impressed that he wants us to fill 2 function rooms next year. Don't miss it.
