At the weekend I came across some old photos of bygone TMUK meetups and have since scanned them in to share. (Quality is a bit grainy since they were taken in the Analogue Age.) Also, I hope I've got all the names right, my memory is not what it used to be. Sven's First Meetup, Summer 1995, Somewhere in Birmingham;  Pictured, from left to right; Andy Dornan, Anthony Appleyard, Jazz Morgan, Phil Birkett, Matt Dallas, Martin M, George Morgan, Sven Harvey, Trevor Woodgate. BotCon Europe, Summer 1999, Mitcham (Surrey);  Pictured, from left to right; Nick Roche, Matt Dallas, Andrew Grant, Simon Furman, Andy Dornan, Martin M, Myself, Chris White. |

Furman never ages. Neither does Martin. I suspect a sinister connection.

And I have eyes that can look at you like _that_ if you're not careful.

This is like one of those things where we all dig out the old photos and laugh at our choices of fashion and bad hairstyles from long ago. Fortunatly, because I'm new to the Hub there are no such photos any of you lot have of me looking ridiculous *gives off loud maniacal laugh*.

Even better than that. I still have the TMU 25 disc somewhere which has the videoclips of me, Al, Marc and Nick Roche from Transforce 2002. Needless to say I have a drink in my hand, which makes it the same as almost every other recorded appearance by me in TMUK lore!

"This thread is legend"? Has Ken dropped "rules" in favour of "legend"? Shock, horror!
I shall have to scan some pics myself...

I recall M had some pics from last year's Scotcon in which I looked a fool. Damn him.

Andy I think Nick's "I like Rhinox, I do" should be sent to his bosses at IDW!  |

I predict Ian will have red horns on his head and will transform into a police car.

next time you take photos, it should involve fireman uniforms and velvet

"MMM these new uniforms are pretty snappy, eh first officer?"
"I suppose, I'm not as big a fan of velour as you are."

somewhere I have some very old pictures of TMUK meet ups including the old comic photo strips - I'll try and dig them out if I'm not too embarrassed by them.
(By comic photo strips I mean photos that are made into a sort of comic-strip like story, nothing rude.)
(Unless you're interested in that sort of thing)
(If you are, I'll have a look for some of those too)

Ah, fortunately I think I managed to avoid the photos backthen, I could do without the reminder of being a snotty 16 year old from '99  |
