At the autumn edition last November I met up with Mrs Ana and Mrs NightLioness for a mini-STS member meeting.
We had a drink, a talk and a laugh. It was realy nice putting some faces to the nicknames.
We also found some very nice figures.

Maybe this year we can make it a medium-STS meeting?

Ha! Would be great, I live close to Utrecht so I probably will be able to come again.

Someone want to pick me up so I can make this my birthday present?

You guys have lots of fun

It's the same with lots of hobbies in Europe (was more difficult for us in UK, but easier now with the tunnel), there are many major events where you see people gathering for whatever hobby it is from all over the continent.

I haven't been to a European toy fair, but many years ago I went to (my other hobby) poultry shows (pretty, weird chickens, like with feathered feet or head crests) at Gent, Hannover and Utrecht, and it was the same at all of them - enthusiasts from all over....

I can pick you up from Amsterdam Schiphol Airport.

There even trains every half hour, running from the airport directly to Utrecht.

Tomorrow my bank account needs to be robbed by me XD

Hi again! I think I will not go to the Collectors Fair this time but I really would like to meet you all. Can we make a little meeting outside the building?

I'm sorry for complicating, I just feel that I don't really want to buy anything anyway and tickets are also not cheap.

But I would so much like to meet you all and talk a bit if possible
