As the bar wasn't mega
chocker, some of the bar staff were allowed to take a good break and mingle with
the people taking part.  And they even got involved with the games
too.  Here, Alicia Han (she's the one with the joystick) is having a good
little go at Uridium, with her fellow member of staff Fahzia Ismael watching
on.  She'd later have a go of that and IK+.  It was really nice to
chat with them both too about the event and they seemed enthusiastic too, so
good on you girls! :)

Richard Joseph in the middle,
being as good a star as he was at Birmingham.  Notice how he managed to get
his bottle of Holsten Pils into the shot as well.  Richard and Jon do keep
in touch regularly, and so was nice for them to chat to other ex-C64 people on
the night too.  As you'll see shortly, Richard was up for
anything!

Jon Hare chats to Bouff about
the gaming stuff.  Note to the left is Nigel Richardson (Nemesis).  He
was famous for having his name in Zzap! 64 as one of the clever contacts who you
could write to if you were stuck on an adventure.  Infamously, Nigel's only
three were Spiderman, Mordon's Quest and Hacker.  I pointed him out for
Mort later on so he could chat to him.  Note too that although Bouff's hair
is long, it doesn't quite match up to Jon's ;)

Bouff chats away with Smirnoff
Ice in hand, while Richard Joseph pulls off the best shot of the night :)
Clearly he wouldn't mind a chance of a date with Bouff himself judging by the
expression.  Jon Hare has a big grin on his face, obviously from Richard's
actions here methinks.  And in the background to the right, Simon Booth has
a go at Uridium.

We encouraged Bouff to have a
go at Uridium+ and see if she was any better than Simon.  I am there
watching giving her soem handy hints whilst Mort also attempts to show her how
not to die instantly by hitting one of the many pylons around the level.
Hmmm.. I don't think you want to do that Bouff - crash!  Life gone.
Nevertheless she is obviously in awe of the sheer speed of the scrolling as the
ship goes full pelt - pure unadulterated Braybrook genius in full effect.
She did admit to Kenz and me later that it was a great game.
Yaay!
