Just to say that I had a great time at the last Concrete Cow. The games were fun, the crowd was friendly, the gaming space was good and the facilities/amenities excellent. I recommend.
Sorry, Gregor, I hadn't

Sorry, Gregor, I hadn't noticed your post here!
Thanks for the kind comments. It was great having you down, and thanks for the excellent game of 3:16. I'm glad we made such a positive impression on you.
Thanks for being our Guest of Honour.
Neil.
Good news on the trader

Good news on the trader front. Both the traders who came last time, Leisure Games and Reaper's Revenge, will be attending Concrete Cow 09½ on 19 September. So bring along lots of money to give to the people with the shiny merchandise!
(Unfortunately, Angus and Cubicle 7 have other commitments which mean they won't be able to make it in September.)
Look forward to seeing you all there,
Neil.

I'm pleased to announce that Simon Rogers will be coming to Concrete Cow as our Guest of Honour.
Simon is head honcho of Pelgrane Press, will be along as our Guest of Honour. Pelgrane is the force behind Esoterrorists, Trail of Cthulhu, Fear Itself, and Mutant City Blues, and recently the Dying Earth game.
Simon will be chained to a table and forced to run various Gumshoe games all day.
I hope you can all make it to join in the fun!
Neil.
