I went to this on the Saturday morning. It was great, the venue was awesome too, plenty of space etc.

Entered my son in the Little Wizards U16 tournament which he managed to win (he won it at last years show too).

I think next year I will need to buy a pass for a couple of sessions or even the whole weekend. I just didn’t get to play enough, there were plenty more pins I wanted time on.

I was there Saturday morning too, would have been good to meet you.
I put four machines in this year including my prized WNBJM.
Next year I am hoping to be less on machines and give the tournament players a few surprises ( I hope )

That's a shame I missed you.

I saw your WNBJM but being in the tournament area I didn't get to play it.  Although I have played a couple of games on one when I went to Graeme's place when he helped me with some riveting for my WW restoration.

I was thinking similar re. the tournament.  I should probably make an effort to go in it next year since I haven't before.

2023 is even better for WCPF
better venue all round and even more games.

This is a glimpse of the tournament machines with a great diversity.
Of course the best game ever, GI and Celts and a snippet of the 30+ machines Kids Just Wanna Have Fun
contributed. The latest Bond 007 was there too.


Awesome work to all involved


My photos suck, sorry.

I headed down for this mornings session with my son, it was really good. It’s definitely growing and getting better with each year it’s on!

I plan to head back again for tonight’s session too.
