Well I did some pre-pub reminiscing and now I've done some post-pub reminiscing. The result? A bunch of photo's of some of my very dearest friends (past and present), many of which who are on LJ and many of which may want to lynch me for putting the photo's up.
I think all the photo's are bloody good though and are a nice trip down memory lane, for not just me but some of you dear readers too...

- 6 Jun 2020, 23:42Not many people left here now. I still pop in very occasionally. Good you see you back.
- 3 Jun 2020, 14:31I've no idea. Looking back this was the last time I saw them. Many of the Barnet area bands at the time were quite incestrous, with many band members playing in an assortment of relatively short…
- I was at that gig - arrived early 'to help the band set up' / get in without paying! Do you know what happened to Laughterland? - saw them a few times in Trent Park, in Islington, at the Torrington…
- Whitesnake were brilliant... MSG got toilet papered off the stage.. hilarious.

Other Days filled with smell of Motor oil and burning rubber. Men throwing axes and women throwing them back, leather jackets with cracked and peeling artwork, how soft they were to lay on when your head felt like hell. Ah the old days and older friends, i feel memory lane a calling me sen.
IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT ;-)
Great pickies x
Most of the 'gothy' pictures in this lot were actually taken at Camarilla games. Camarilla being a live-action roleplay society were we played - yep, you got it - vampires (amongst other things :p).
I'm guessing Monty has a picture in the attic...
- Neil.
You've always bene cute haven't you ?
It's nice to finally be able to put a face with the name Delphine.
shanks for sharing these pics, even if you do get lynched !
Corone generally looks dashing and is, along with Monty, probably the person I know who hasn't changed much in all the time I've known him (I think we met in '93/94?).
**Meryc as a goth - hilarious !**
I think I have other piccies of him around that time too... hehe...
**You've always bene cute haven't you?**
Why, thank my dear (bows) :p
I was quite 'cute' when I was younger but unfortunately the pounds have chased that away. I still have my hair and a cheeky smile though which, apparently, counts for something! I've also just renewed my gym membership yesterday in the effort to try and chase a few of those nasty punds away and head back up the 'cute' ladder before middle-age hits and I'm doomed!!!!
**It's nice to finally be able to put a face with the name Delphine.**
I'll post up a couple of others of her at somepoint.
**shanks for sharing these pics, even if you do get lynched !**
No problem. It was actually fun and I haven't been lynched yet (although I'm suspecting this might be because not everyone involved has checked my post yet :p)
I met 'Lord Corone' (as opposed to 'Andy') for, ooh, about five minutes at a VST game in Colchester about two years before we started going out. He did look very dashing, but was also rather scary (which, for someone so naturally fluffy, is pretty good roleplaying).
As for not changing...You're not alone, Angus, he definitely doesn't fit in any of his trousers from that era any more ;). Thank heavens for the magic powers of fab hair :).
I still fit the frock coat you know!
:D
Hehe...thank you for that :)
I feel, somehow, better now :D
**Thank heavens for the magic powers of fab hair :).**
Indeedy :)
:p
Why haven't you aged you b******d????
I've known you for over 18 years now and you still (more or less) look the same!
I always love seeing old pictures of Grim as Top.
I may post him up later for you :p
bloody good pics
AAAARRRRGGGG!!!!!
Do you still have the negatives (which I remember you borrowing a long time ago) so I can get copies again?
I think I've only got the actual photos of the others in the series as you leant me the negatives and I got a load made for myself and I'm pretty sure handed the negs back to you years ago.
I have all the photo folders in a draw though so I can check. There's actually a bundle of the photos which I don't really need (more personal ones for you I reckon) that you might be interested in.
Next time you come over ask me to dig them out and we can go through them. At very least if I don't have the negatives I can scan any you want and burn them onto a disc.
BTW - Quick reminder - Web Hosting!!
It's amazing how few pictures were taken of those early games.
