Who told it that it could snow?

Dragonmeet was lovely. Getting back rather less so. But being an hour and twenty minutes late on a packed train full of drunk Newcastle fans for the last two hours ain't as bad as not being able to get back at all would have been.

Got to meet Ian Livingstone, the man responsible for my first gaming type experience (City Of Thieves, which I now have a signed copy of the new edition of), Robin D. Laws, Kenneth Hite, Andrew Peregrine, Jeff Combos... as a result, my signed stuff bag was rather heavy. And Alex Jurkat wasn't even there but I still got a signed limited-edition Buffy rulebook at the auction. (I never got the limited edition when it was out, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.)

C7's new game, by Gar, is Primeval. Sweeeeet.

Hope everybody made (or makes) it back okay.

So, what Ian Livingstone have to say?

Oh, nevermind, looks like he didn't.

However a recent post in this thread (http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?t=412387&page=13) might be interesting.

He talked for an hour or so, as well as providing signed and unsigned stuff for the charity auction, so yeah, he said things.

Ian Livingstone was also responsible some of my earliest gaming experiences if we're counting the Fighting Fantasy books as gaming (which I am).
