I only managed to grab a few shots at that this year's (2001) Gaelcon and here they are...  

Kevin plays Jimmy for the last time. The end of an era....

Brian may look like he was sleeping, but he's actually reading Dork Tower....

Mel GM's!!!

Warpcon XI (2001)

Now that's a face not even a mother could love

      Mel looking pretty.       Pretty drunk that is.... Meanwhile Kev stands idly by.

A rare shot of me in front of the camera

Comic book fans, Jay and Silent Bob meet their hero, Guy Gardner.

You'd never think Derek hated cameras would you???

Jay and Silent Bob, take time off after latest screen adventures.

There is a full page of thumbnails of photos from Warpcon XII here.

For other photographs from Warpcon 2002 go to Nigel's site at http://www.geocities.com/carathasb5/Warpcon.html.

Back to Gencon UK 2000, again. Girding the loins before the Charity Auction. 

Not exactly a convention but a happy occasion none the less Mel & Siobhan tie the knot. 
Mel & Siobhan's wedding again, the lads pose for the cameras.

"They've seen our faces. They must die!" 

A rare shot of me at a convention (I'm usually behind the camera). Mind you, you could never accuse McNeil of being camera-shy....
Another rarity! Cards & Drinking! It's a disgrace....

And now for something completely different.... Technically not a games convention, but taking time out while at an IT convention in Miami (tenuous link) we met this big 'pussycat' down in the Everglades.

Don't forget to come back here as I'll be continually adding to this page as I get more photographs developed and scanned.
The following four photographs were shamelessly borrowed Fergal O'Brien's excellent site; http://gofree.indigo.ie/~conphoto/

Gaelcon '98. Derek and a slave. Quote of the weekend. "You won't believe what they're doing in there. They're selling off slaves!!!" - Unnamed Burlington staff member.  

Gaelcon '98 again. Derek (and the corner of my head) at the charity auction (or the pub quiz).
Gaelcon '99. The legendary Wayne awarding the Spirit of Gaelcon Award. 

 

Gaelcon '99. The winner of said award. 
The following photos are a few from Warpcon XII I found and shamelessly nicked off another site (I like to think of it as preservibf them). So I present for your entertainment.... 

The ever lovely Siobhan demonstrating her redoubtable dancing skills.

Not to be outdone, Saidbh shows off her 'dancing skills'....

Guest of Honour, John Kovalic and his lovely wife.

Mr Kovalic again. This time with the, by now, familiar to us all, Mr James Wallis.

Mr Kovalic, yet again. This time auctioning of a proof of his latest trade paperback of Dork Tower strips.

Maz! I have no other words for this.

It's Par-Tay Time!!!!

The slave girls. 'Nuff said.
