Okay, it takes a lot, but now you lost me! Are you using a Tree Stump instead of the Pony for, ahem, pleasure?? If so, "Owwww - splinters!" or are you using it instead of....erm......oh, I give up......come on Eddie - what are we using the tree stump for????????
Or is Tree Stump slang for Dave's Gentlemans Region?

I for one could quite happily never know the answers to these questions.

one thing I don't think has been mentioned anywhere is the limited comic produced for the event.
Designed more to refresh and bring new interest into the hobby it included a re-print of Ascendancy Island, mini history articles as well as awareness of new projects like Red Dawn etc. There are still a few copies left if anyone is interested?
£1.50 to cover postage and packing. Just drop me a line for anyone who wants one.
Dave.

And to think I was suffering death by powerpoint when you guys were happy shopping

Hell yeah to that..... I was also involved in PowerPoint and new business pitches, the bastards. What are the opening times of the shop at the weekends Dave? Might have to tie in a trip from Exeter with the missus and come and salivate round your way. Damn, that's a cracking shop and brings a tear to my eye to think some classic AF is on sale in shops as we type. What am I saying, I need to leave now....
Hah, great job and sorry I missed the meet up. Hope to make up for it next time and during a couple of visits in the coming weeks.

The comic is well worth a read, its far more adult than I remember too.

That was because Eddie drew boobs on all the Shads in your copy, ODB.
