We had a great time thanks to the organisers and brill hosts Alan and Clare. The games room is absolutely stunning, and fantastic collection of Pins. Plus, the food was delicious!
And how about Luke’s quote of the day: "Dad, you really need to play more and stop fixing them!" So true!

 

[ronsplooter]

Awesome day of pinball Huge thanks to Clare and @AlanJ for hosting and @windoesnot for organising and running the comp, I thought it went really well. Congrats to @AndyB on the win and to the other finalists. The Yorkshire puddings with ice cream were very nice
