I have a minor role on the committee, so I spent a good chunk of Thursday evening and Friday morning wandering around buying props and other items to run events. I stopped by <a href="http://www.fanboy3.co.uk/" target="_blank">Fan Boy 3</a> a couple of times because I knew they had the Starter Set early... to be told that they were getting it delivered, but there had been a delay. they ended up taking my phone number.So a few hours later, just after I'd finished helping run an item, I got a phone call saying the books were in, they'd put one in a bag and were walking over to the hotel to hand it to me. Which they then did.I think this is the first time I've understood what's meant by a FLGS... Also, damnit, my next visit to Manchester for my 3.0/5e group is before the MM is out.</blockquote>
