Nope. I wanted to Tim, but I'm due to work that day and unfortunately can't get the day off. :(

Well if memory serves me right it is in ExCel now, which is just up the road from my mum's (easy Parking), and my house mate is a GW staff member and she thinks she is working there that day, if not she definately wants to go as well so seems like I could end up going as well.
Another opportunity to spend more money I do not have, on more models I do not need, gotta love this hobby. 8)

Wow, if my local GW store had staff that looked like your housemate I would spend an awful lot more of my time there, lol. Instead I have to converse with sweaty guys with long hair and goatee beards. :roll:

Sounds like you had a good day. Shame I had to work.

Oh, now, don't be unkind. GW employees are not all beardy and sweaty. Or spotty.... :lol:

I envy you gits for having great events happening nearby... what I wouldn't give to walk up to some Stormtroopers and say (waving one hand mysteriously): 'These are not the droids you are looking for...'

That is true, and yet...

there is a common theme.



I had long hair once and look at me now! Perhaps I'm just envious. Tried a beard several times but it's just too itchy.

I'd love to go along to some kind of event like this. My parents live a 10 minute drive from Warhammer World in Nottingham. It's just a pity that I live a 4 hour drive away from them.

Any more photos to be had from the day? Especially photos with your housemate in them Tony - she's quite... arresting.

At my "local" GW, the staff are actually fairly average-looking guys...but the customers look like Space Wolves...I actually saw a guy with a hairstyle like the one on the left in this pic.
