It'll probably come as no surprise that BurritoCon is going online. I'd really wanted to have a face to face event to get together with the amazing gamers who come along for RPG fun, while also supporting the excellent Fanboy 3 where we had planned to run the event (check out their new site, it's … Continue reading BurritoCon 5 Goes Virtual
It was no surprise to see Virtual Grogmeet at it's biggest and best yet this year, in part due to the cancellation of quite a few 'before coronavirus' cons, but mostly due to the great organisation of the hosts Dirk and Blythy and the great gamers who have come together to make this happen. Initially … Continue reading Virtual Grogmeet 2020
Ok, so I'm a bit late putting this out, but it's been one of those weeks. The weekend of 6-8 March saw the 4th outing of Convergence in Stockport and my 4th visit. As in previous years I only attended the Saturday, but I know many enjoy the full weekend experience. It's a great con … Continue reading Convergence 2020

I've booked a load of tables at Fanboy Three for Saturday 1st August. The event will run from 10am to 6pm, with game slots of … Continue reading BurritoCon5 is a thing

The idea came together last year, I think inspired by The One Ring Roadtrip. I must have been raving on about it to my Barbarians of Lemuria group when @davepaters suggested … Continue reading Grogten 2020
Last year I set out my gaming plans for 2019 - they were ambitious but open to change, and for the most part I followed them, getting to cons and running most of the games I had planned to. The games I didn't get to run were Black Blade of the Demon King and World … Continue reading 2020 Gaming Plan
There are events you look forward to - a weekend break, Christmas, your best mates wedding, and they are nice. Then there are the epic events that dominate your thoughts for months in advance, a sense of excitement growing as the occasion draws near. Grogmeet is one of those events, occupying my RPG thoughts for … Continue reading Grogmeet 2019
You've probably heard me go on about BurritoCon4 quite a bit. A small, friendly event held at that most wonderful of game stores, Fanboy 3 in Manchester. Following on from the previous successes of previous BurritoCons, my plan for number 4 started not long after 3 had finished and after asking around I was pleased … Continue reading BurritoCon4 has gone
I measure my progress through the year with family birthdays and gaming events... Convergence marks the start of the con season in early March, then DevaCon in April, UK Games Expo in May and BurritoCon3 in July, then it's the inevitable slow down over summer with folks on holiday and fewer game opportunities. Owlbear and … Continue reading Owlbear and Wizards Staff 2019
