TBH Phil it might be easier as I was having to borrow a car and have a couple of mates help me move the pin around and not being able to drive after the op will make it almost impossible to collect it.Gutted to hear this, Col. Health matters more than anything. If getting a pin to the event it too much trouble, don't worry about it.
After your first message I was concerned that you'd had a stroke, although it seems you've recoveredGreat bash Phil, thanks for letting us support. Farfalla and Nautilus both went terminal with Nautilus on day one I am sorry to say. Farfalla went on Sunday I know what the issue is and will be sorted for PinFest. Nautilus was a real head scratcher, still not sure so need to set it up and take a look with fresh eyes later this week. Pacman suffered a few issues, from a dying transistor – replaced and re-seated a ribbon or two and it worked perfectly (cheers for the help Poi). One or two EMs needed a minor adjustment and Rodeo. the gun game was giving away infinite shots Sorted that out on Sunday when I checked it in the Morning. Startwars upright and Battle zone Cabaret both performed flawlessly. I guess the fans I installed for sucking in air and pushing out warm air helped a lot here
Thanks again Phil, great bash, made some new friends too. You really looked after the supporters, so thank you. Rob and I had our usual grumpy old men routine, falling out on the way home, but we got the last pin of after midnight. My head hit the pillow at 01:00 after dropping the van back at the hire place. I was then up at 05:00 for my swim training…
Thanks again see you all soon.
