i'm fully in this digital age with cameras and whotnots. Unfortunately that means anything not already in digital space needs to be scanned in and processed... ..which then means i have to set up the scanner etc...
So, without much further ado though, here goes:
This is a summerfest one, Achy, Bloodlust, Gloom and Gumbleweed (aka Zarabeth's son).
This one is from the fireworks meet at Paulo's house - Val(?), Timmo and Chris (and I've no idea who the bod is on the right there).
I've a vague recollection this was a London meet after a Silicon Village roadshow (why that sounds so dodgy, I don't know!). Left to right, GlooM, Chris, Hannah (Zarabeth's daughter), Zarabeth, Vick and Timmo. The Vick pout is usual when we was quite drunk. I
really wish I had taken some photos at the Harrogate Acorn User show when he was starting to slide under the table after the Merrydown!
This is either a Summerfest or Christmasfest photo. It was the, 'we are about to leave and go home' photo. Gloom, Zarabeth, Vick and Achy.

Christmasfest, and Ben looking drunk...
Vick, Shona and Ben at the Christmasfest.
Same people with an expressive Vick...
Gloom and the now infamous "Janet Incident" (that's the stuffed camel he's holding on to in a loving way).
More booze sir? This was the other infamous incident at the Christmasfest was where myself and Gloom drunk each other under the table using cider. Each was expecting the other to stop first. There was a logical flaw in this argument that we didn't spot till too late. Ahem.
Gloom is now two-timing Janet with "Flossy", the inflatable friend...
Argh, no! Anything but the comfy sofa!
This was a London Silicon Village roadshow meet. Left to right, Vick, Tone(?), and FlippeR. The rest are some bods playing Avatar (usually having great fun killing each other rather than the beasties in game).
Outside the cockle and bacon I think. Note the happy look on Hannah's face because Bloodlust is holding her! Left to right: Achy, Gloom, Grimalkine, Paulo, Bloodlust, Hannah, Archer?, Zarabeth, Gumbleweed and an obscured Columbus (Chris).
This is the Vick "I've got the barbecue lit!", triumphal shot. It was always a bit of a toil to get the darn thing going (GlooM, you don't use the instructions to light the barbeque as kindling
for the barbeque) and if you look at the light levels here, you can see its going dark...
I'm sure I've got more, but I've no idea where they have got to.
If you want the raw images that these came from, Email me and I will send them. I warn you though, the zip file is almost 310Mb.
