Arriving at Storiel, we weren’t expecting to find the whole car park fenced off, but thankfully that didn’t put people off finding us! Over the course of the day, we welcomed probably a record number of people! A few families popped in and joined in the fun, plus one ofRead More →
We had a bit of a late start setting up because the keyholder had to travel all the way from Wrexham in the morning! Thankfully the sun was out though 🙂 People started drifting in past 11am, starting with the usual catch ups/mingles. We had the main screen set up,Read More →

We were back in Wheldon for this month, so back to two sides, two big screens, plenty of space. We set up the usual side with the showcase of Mario vs Donkey Kong. It seemed that Dylan and John were determined to get through a whole world playing it co-op,Read More →
New year, same NNW, new venue! Well not that new for us, as we once used the same room in May 2017, but it was new for the younger members! What was different this time though, was we were able to get the chairs stacked away so it was lessRead More →
We decided to have a more free flowing event to round off 2023. After being inspired by Nottingham Tony’s ideas of “help me complete this game”, we offered a helpdesk session for the morning. We never predicted that this would transpire into 2.5 solid hours of people taking it turnsRead More →
