this video is sponsored by Squarespace hello everyone and welcome to another episode I'm Jeff and I'm Patrick this is
0:08
Bella yeah hello that's you that's your name and uh We've fought off jet lag to
0:15
the point that we can finally put a coherent sentence together CU we're just back from Las Vegas open aren't we we
0:20
are indeed yeah what a wonderful time we had what a wonderful an extraordinarily
0:26
strange time I think we had it was very OD wasn't I so little bit of a backstory
0:34
our uh good friend Byron uh him who is uh one half of
0:42
element games and one half of arst hopus invited us out there to go and be uh the
0:47
ey candy at his uh at the Arta Super Store didn't he he went I don't care how
0:55
well you can sell just stand there look pretty yes pull the punters in yeah so
1:01
no one came over the uh the g strings were a bit much yeah once we put trousers on
1:08
business definitely improved I thought I I don't know if there's a
1:13
correlation between that I don't know but yeah so yeah uh I went you you went
1:19
g string trousers I went g string chaps that's still aress chaps that doesn't work and eventually gave in and put me
1:26
trousers on and things definitely improved oh God but um it was quite a
1:31
interesting time wasn't it yeah um yes it was the first thing I think I'd have
1:37
to say about it was the the customers ranged
1:44
from extraordinarily nice which was those that knew us which which you know
1:52
I'm getting a great honestly I'm grading it honestly like extraordinarily nice who the people that were really pleased to see us cuz they watched the channel
1:59
yeah and they were quite quite surprised that we were there yeah and then generally everybody else was really nice
2:06
and then even the people that were not that into what talk to us were still
2:12
very courteous I've never been called Sir so much no it was really weird
2:18
wasn't it in in my life I got to be honest I thought in the 40 or so Plus hours that we were
2:25
open over the three and a bit days I never had a single person go
2:32
through that stand who I thought oh he was hard work or she was hard work
2:38
everybody was at the very least Pleasant friendly and courteous I thought it was
2:44
a really the people were a really really nice experience I thought for oh yeah yeah it was amazing um yes yeah so yeah
2:52
we were uh working on the artist opena stand in the exhibition Hall um and
2:58
whilst the tournament was going on and yeah such such an incredible experience um like Byron had said like this is the
3:05
best part of the hobby like going to those massive events yeah um and yeah it
3:12
was really really good uh CU I think it's definitely easy to spend too much
3:17
time on the internet and yeah and and from the chats that that we've had recently like um like with uh chatting
3:26
about tournaments and is it is it ruining for 40K you know that's that's a title that we've used on a video yeah
3:33
yeah absolutely right um but going there seeing a room
3:39
with that had a thousand people playing yeah nearly a thousand people I got the
3:45
yeah yeah insane and everyone was so happy having such a wonderful time yeah
3:51
um and it's quite funny cu the people who were coming out uh cuz on the first
3:57
day with it was like a soft opening it was open for about 4 hours in the evening while people
4:02
registered and then sort of once they' registered they came around the they came around the uh the the stands of the
4:09
the retailers and and there was a lot of there was a
4:15
lot of Fast Business in the 4 hours that first day we were really quite frantic but then it sort of slowed down a little
4:22
bit and we mainly got waves of it in the as as people would finishing up their
4:27
their round in the tournament they would come in and and and you know and then obviously cuz there was lots of other
4:32
different games going on as well other than just 40K so we worked relatively constant but it it it sometimes came in
4:39
sort of waves but even when you talking to people and go how's it gone how you
4:44
know what have you play who have you just played what have you played what game you playing you know what army even
4:50
the people that have just been absolutely crushed yeah still came in and looked like they were having a really nice time yes it made me de it
4:58
really did make me slightly re-evaluate the tournament scene yeah where I thought a lot of people seem to be
5:04
having a laugh here yes no one came in and looked like they wanted to kick a table over no they might have wanted to
5:10
kick a table over at the tournament room they might have done for I know but um they seem to everyone seemed to
5:18
just be were in the spirit of it I think and um and you know the people
5:24
were lovely and also to be fair some of the other retailers that I spoke to were were really nice as well
5:30
I thought um yes we um were speaking to what they called War
5:36
scenery next door to us a lovely gentleman from German compatriots yeah from from Germany and they were really
5:43
lovely guys uh one of the chaps there Patrick is already a fan of the show which was really nice they were knocking
5:49
out some really lovely um Star Wars compatible scenery yes and and some of
5:55
that was painted really nice and they had like a traitor guard miniature range as well which was really lovely and some
6:02
very trying to think the best way put it very Star Wars adjacent Miniatures
6:07
didn't they for uh what looked like they were for Star Wars Legion and they were really lovely Lads um all the guys on
6:13
the GW stand were were great they were amazing they were really nice fell and I think that was
6:20
um yeah and again like too much time on the internet Games Workshop of this evil
6:26
monstrous company uh every single person at the event stand cuz we were opposite
6:32
GW um we had laugh with didn't we yeah um and it was brilliant yeah we really
6:38
did they were really lovely fellas um they were lovely fellas they were really generous with us as well um yeah we had
6:44
to gen we had a really nice time with the people that we were coming into contact with as yeah in in the uh in the
6:51
The Stand um I met two uh two guys that were really interesting two British guys
6:57
came in who had uh were therefore one of them was a 40K player and um was in
7:04
Vegas for the fact that his mate was there for a Jiu-Jitsu competition they'd
7:10
spent that morning throwing themselves out of planes cuz they were skydivers and they were a pair of X Special Forces
7:16
British guys yes and one of them the one that was the non 40K player turned out
7:21
to be from very close to where I'm from and supposed to the same football team and we had a we had a mutual hug of our
7:27
of our woes supporting a football team having a terrible time so it was really
7:33
interesting to meet them they were really cool um yeah it was um generally every sorts
7:40
of like half an hour or an hour you come into contact with somebody who was really really cool but it everybody was
7:48
generally pretty pretty nice Vegas itself though oh it's an
7:53
interesting place isn't it isn't it isn't it interesting place um I'll try and I got some clips so I'll maybe put
8:00
some over the top of it but yeah yeah we I mean I I don't think I've been on a flight that long before um yeah I have
8:08
to India but good God on the way out I felt every single second of that
8:14
flight every single second to me I quite often I like I'm I'm not a particularly
8:20
tall person as as people know um I think I think when I sit down I look normal
8:25
and when I stand up when I stand up it's like oh he's small um and I've only got little legs I've
8:33
never been I've never been so thankful to be travel sized um it's wonderful and
8:40
they're like oh would you like to upgrade for leg room no no just a quick break from the chat to talk about the

10:40
need it um but yeah the seat the seat was a little our our 7 I was like I'm
10:46
going to get some sleep because my ass hurts uh and I'm just going to sleep through the pain um I've never eaten so
10:53
much food oh good God I know I'm you know it's no shock to anybody that I'm somebody who can food away but I got off
11:01
the plane and I don't know if it was I think I said to the group as a jet as a whole but I was like I thought God I
11:07
thought I have literally in 10 hours 10 10 10 and a half hours I've at
11:13
more food on that plane that I would eat in 10 and a half hours on you know at my
11:20
job at home yeah even on a day off on a Sunday I thought how would consume that much food in 10 hours it was wonderful
11:26
it was honestly it was like yeah it was ridiculous but um loads of drinks as well loads of drinks I did I felt like I
11:33
just spent me me time on on the way out watching films and slaping G eating it
11:40
was just seem to be a constant thing but it did the flight out did did kill me I
11:45
was just like just it literally couldn't come quick enough which was a complete
11:50
difference to my flight home which I slept you know 10 odd hour flight and I think I slept probably eight hours of it
11:57
in in total added together time travel isn't it it's oh yeah it's really weird on the way back sleep straight away woke
12:03
up and I'm in London it was a bit weird yeah but um yeah but Vegas itself yeah so we should say
12:11
as well uh so our our group there was Byron arus uh Ed who who works for Byron who's
12:19
an awesome Chap and then Ross from fmer as well yes Ross who that was our little group on our new uh friends of the
12:26
channel who uh help you with uh the 3D print 3D printing yeah yeah yeah yeah he
12:32
is the man to go to he's a lovely chap as well and he like uh guy mid minis uh
12:39
they did a a video recently about learning how to 3D print and guess who helped them yeah he sort to becomeing
12:45
every other channel Channel's go-to guy is yeah absolutely yeah um but yeah yeah
12:51
it was awesome yeah we stayed at like he's such a such a culture shock oh God
12:57
yeah we stayed at EXC caliber um here's a picture of it there we
13:04
go it's ridiculous isn't it excalibar is utterly ridiculous and it's got more
13:10
ridiculous since I've come home and I've looked to photographs on that have gone cuz after when you see it it's
13:16
ridiculous but it's sound it's surrounded by ridiculous cuz over the road from it was New York New York which
13:24
has got three or four sort of quasy interpretations of wellknown building
13:30
has has a Statue of Liberty yeah which is at least three or four stories high yeah it's enormous it has its own
13:35
built-in roller coast yeah and then so when you think take that into consideration Excalibur doesn't look
13:41
quite so weird but then when you look at a photograph of Excalibur on its own it's utterly preposterous yes it is yeah
13:48
it's bizarre I mean walking around Vegas is just bizarre escalators everywhere yeah you can't walk in a straight line
13:54
for more than about 300 M before you have to go up a set of stairs or an escalator over a sky bridge that
14:01
desperately tries to push you into a casino yeah which you can then go down another set of stairs carry on walking
14:06
for a bit have to go back over the other side it's really really odd I was trying to explain to somebody how
14:14
condensed the casinos are on the strip I said to the point I said if you walked
14:20
from one end of the strip to the other on a rainy day you probably wouldn't get that wet no cuz you could almost walk
14:27
casino to casino yeah yes you know what I mean you get wet going across the sky Bridge as you went into the next one on
14:33
the other side of the road but it was just it's an well their their version of
14:38
of rain in the desert was just a little bit of drizzle wasn't it yeah yeah yeah it was a really really really bizarre
14:46
Place wasn't it I am I think the biggest shock for me was you obviously have the
14:51
facades of these buildings are insane yeah and you have New York you walk down
14:56
the street oh I'm in Paris now um and the bagio and and Caesar's Palace
15:03
and all everything is is like you know like a like a movie set or something but you walk in and they're all the same
15:10
yeah once you once you look past whatever their internal
15:17
stickers they they are just the same place like the Rio where the the uh the
15:23
tournament was being held didn't seem to have a shtick no it didn't but it it wasn't on the Strip was it no it was not
15:30
it was a little just a little bit off it but it didn't have a theme today you go Rio you go well that's in that's in
15:38
Brazil and that's a big party town why didn't they have a massive Christ Redeemer
15:43
statue M trick there but it was like you know there was nothing in it he went
15:49
well I'm getting the feel of like a Brazilian parade of entertainment and the braz you know and there was nothing
15:55
where you felt well this feels like it's get an interpretation of Brazil it was
16:01
just like no it's literally just a casino hotel yeah it didn't have anything that you know even the
16:07
entertainment which sadly I couldn't go and see but the residents were um pen
16:12
andella yeah who I'd like to have seen but you don't go whenever I think of Rio
16:18
De Janeiro I think one very gobby and one silent magician that's never how I
16:24
think of of that place and I think you know thought not I think reflected the
16:29
name where in other places it did reflect the name you know at least our place for at least it had suits of armor
16:36
and things like that going on and the had like the shood Forest Bar yeah yeah
16:43
um and I think I only saw two suits of armor do you know what was weird for a
16:49
for a uh a country that um in the nicest possible way likes
16:54
violence in a bit of a fight none of the suits of armor had any weapons did they not no just there well that's it cuz
17:01
probably somebody might grab one yeah well that's possibly a thing yeah they were like oh I've I've just lost my life
17:07
savings so I'm putting this sword through the machine in this slot machine um where's a a sword yes ah here we go
17:15
and it wouldn't get me a mace oh I'm on yeah what they should have done was swapped them for like lar weapons so
17:20
they're all foam yeah maybe that would have been fun but um but yeah but um
17:26
yeah Vegas was was crazy we we also went like the strip well it was because we
17:32
got there on a weekday I was surprised how quiet it is yes U cuz I guess we were there out of season uh on a weekday
17:40
and it was sort of a little bit like is this is this what it's like all the time yeah um but as it got to the weekend and
17:48
and there was a few like hen pities and the music was a bit louder and and you were like oh cool Vegas I'm J lagged and
17:54
really tired and I've been working so I'm going to go to bed people were really stand starting to stand around the creas and play craps and other you
18:00
could hear groups of guys and girls who come together were cheering at however well the dice were going on claps and
18:07
things like that and and it did have a bit more life to it but during the week it was like fruit machines in an old age
18:12
pensioner Zone wasn't there yes and no one no one sat at a single machine looked like they enjoying themselves I
18:18
think I I heard two people cheer all week uh I was counting yeah uh on the
18:24
weekend it was a bit different um but um on the week it was yeah yeah it super interesting but yeah it like it was uh
18:31
it was cool and then I guess our our trip of vegos talk about Fremont Street Freemont Street was really Fremont
18:38
Street was what I wanted Vegas to all be like yeah I think the problem we had is
18:44
the fact that we um uh we w we worked really long days they were like roughly 12-hour days
18:50
weren't they yeah something like and um so what with the jet lag and then the
18:56
amount of hours we worked we were basic basically coming out and generally having something to eat and then going
19:03
to bed weren we basically and um cuz we were normally in we were normally at the
19:10
tournament for about quarter to 8 in the morning yeah so we were there quite early so we we we didn't uh we really
19:16
wen't buring the candle at both ends when we were in Vegas we we were quite we were quite boring but yeah I think uh
19:23
I think I just got over the jet lag just in time to come home yes I think basically like yeah I think it's taken
19:29
me about a week yeah but I summoned off enough energy to have walk down Freeman Street and I really liked Freeman Street
19:35
it was very interesting we've seen a very interesting devil and a very interesting
19:43
nun she didn't really look very devil likee no and to be fair I don't think she was wearing enough clothes to look
19:50
particularly devil likee yeah and I tell you what the nun did I I've I've got to
19:55
be honest I've not come into contact with a lot of nuns but they generally wear more clothes than that it's a very strange experience some
20:03
of free mon Street some of the people who are hanging around and attempt to con you into a photograph yes yeah yeah
20:10
so it was it's I mean that that would put bums on seats if none's dressed like that in the UK wouldn't it it definitely
20:16
make me Thea think about changing my religion and going to church far more often if they look like that it was a
20:22
very strange place yes it was very very strange um yeah but so like yeah the T
20:28
tournament itself and the experience of everything and like um yeah I guess we we I stuck my head into the room a
20:35
couple of times um yeah had a bit of a walk and seeing that many people um
20:41
playing 40K was insane and the room
20:47
itself like and I was trying to Ross about it was really hard to to capture
20:53
on video just like how couldn't get the W you ginormous it is you couldn't could you yeah and and it's it's really really
20:59
interesting like I think it was quite I think for me like the takeaway was like
21:04
Yeah The Hobby Community is awesome um like we met met a lovely chat called
21:11
Sergio if you are watching there we go cook to me if you are watching Sergio thank you so much he bought was loads of
21:17
coffees oh he was absolutely like a Lifeline to keeping us going wasn't he
21:23
he was amazing he was a really really nice guy and uh if you are watching thank you again man he was really really
21:29
cool and um Gregory Gregory Gregory Gregory who was a lovely lovely chap as
21:35
well I was explaining he took us to dinner one night on the grounds of the fact that he
21:40
um he loved the show he liked uh he liked Artis hopeus paint brushes he referred to Bella as a
21:48
saint he may have had a beer or two by that point in time I don't know yeah but um yeah he was really really lovely I
21:54
loved his idea of saying um when you say first name is Gregory and you're
21:59
marrying a woman whose say name is Gregory you've got to change your name to hers cuz how would you you why would you give up that opportunity to same
22:06
name Sensational yeah don't blame him at all I love the theory of it but yeah so
22:12
it was it was really good and I didn't know at the time but the chap who won
22:17
whose name I'm sorry I can't remember but the chap who won 40K um was the son of one of the people that
22:25
working on the Games Workshop stand yes yeah yeah he's a member of the Vanguard tactics
22:30
yeah yeah he's one of one of the coaches nekron won I believe was that right yeah nekron's won as well yeah which was uh
22:36
seemed to be a bit of a uh a little bit of a shock don't get me wrong lar were in the final which was not a shock at
22:42
all yeah and then age of sigar was sigar was cities of Sigma sigar versus cities
22:48
of cities of Sigma after we'll put that down to being training exercise
22:53
um yeah and but I don't know a lot of angels Angels uh of cities of Sigmar but
23:00
we was we met up with who was also a lovely lovely chap who should be mentioned is Andy Tolbert who's from
23:08
events at Games Workshop and was a really really nice guy and he explained
23:13
uh the Army list that one to us and it sounded even with my limited knowledge of AJ Sigma it sounded utterly
23:21
filthy I think that sounds like it's got nerfed written all over after that potentially yeah cool um but yeah it was
23:30
it was great um yeah other folks we tried to oh I'm going to I'm going to
23:35
put the name on screen I was like oh cuz I've got one of their cards in a bag somewhere who had all of the painted uh
23:42
like 3D printed like weapons oh they were awesome were they something goblins
23:48
yes yes they were yeah and there's the you'll see them knocking around on Instagram we start we've got some
23:53
photographs of I think they at one point in time handed me a a Balter with a that
24:00
you could actually Co and had a magazine that came off it at one point in time that nearly had to be you know
24:06
physically removed off me because i' taken quite a shine to just keep an hold of it um yeah they made some really
24:12
really cool what they called hobby goblins maybe maybe we'll we'll we'll uh
24:18
you'll know know cuz CU Pat will have put the name of them up but um yeah their stuff was really really cool and
24:24
they were lovely guys as well yeah so we've got some I'll put some photogra put some more photographs up on Insta
24:30
you'll probably have seen one if you do look at my insta account there's one of me holding uh a large orc weapon with
24:38
amazingly brilliantly graffitied W written down the side of it yeah um yeah
24:44
the Army painter were there had a chat little chat with Adam which is lovely because I spoke very
24:50
briefly to Sam Sam lens who was a phenomenal painter he was really cool yeah uh a AK were there there some
24:56
lovely chaps working on on that stand and and we had we had a uh some food
25:02
with the guys from Monument Hobbies as well who were also awesome really really Lov fantastic very lovely people the
25:07
guys at Monument Hobbies they do make some phenomenal paints and they seem to
25:12
have set our stand Al like didn't he with the with the no no
25:18
no did you buy a bottle of no I did buy a bottle try that that might be a thing for a future episode wasn't it turning
25:25
acrylics into oil paint yes so yeah they it's their subtractive weathering medium
25:33
uh well done yeah I I could go into marke you think you could um it made the dog sit up
25:40
there when he said that like that yeah yeah um subtractive weathering medium is dog for oi
25:50
um I can you know I rarely sit on the sofa um so it's bil got any sofa looking
25:56
at this it's quite ni nice to be distracted by the dog um and just hello
26:03
hello Audio Only listeners I am uh stroking the dog here we go yeah um yes
26:11
so I'm I'm really eager to try that um and see where it sort of fits in with um
26:17
because I think a criticism of your enamels and oils is you everything needs
26:23
its its own thinner um it's going to eat your brush and you have to have
26:28
different brushes and it generally is a bit more planning so like the acrylic nature of it means it's it's you don't
26:35
have to think about it as much less solvents involved which is probably ideal absolutely but it' be interesting
26:42
to see how it behaves and because it's the medium you can make it any color you want yeah um so that is is super
26:50
interesting so I think we'll have a video about that cuz it's they said that they sold out immediately uh and they
26:57
had to sort of really try hard to find stock to bring some um I don't think
27:02
anyone's got it in the UK yet um it was um so yeah it' be fun one well it was it
27:08
was quite interesting because um although I know the basics of the ARA
27:13
so Drive Rush method um to actually sit and watch uh Byron going to work and
27:21
Ross as well who knows it very well uh going to work on doing it for as demos for people who are coming by
27:28
it was that was really fascinating to go oh do you know what this this moist
27:33
moist D dry brushing yeah not what was what was Ross calling the to Anno was it
27:39
something like squidy slightly slightly damp smushy Brushy or something like that
27:44
yeah what to Byron's Conti roll
27:49
annoyance I'm not I I wouldn't be one to say who's right and wrong but you know yeah the brush was the the brush was
27:56
slightly moist and smushy yeah yeah if if you're stippling it is a slightly slightly damp smush brush yeah but it
28:02
was good to see them doing that and then the N was brought over and then you started to see that being figured out as
28:08
well and that it was quite it was quite interesting to see it so um um there
28:14
were some beautiful models not only in the painting competition but also there
28:20
was a I still not quite sure who they were but there was like a company wasn't
28:25
it displ display stuff yeah like a a museum or something so they had like
28:31
squid Mar's crashed Manta they did yes uh which was such a surprise like I was trying to find a toilet and I was like
28:38
oh I've seen that yeah and it's enormous it's Absolut massive hug and like as
28:44
good as those videos are and they are phenomenal um it it so much better in
28:50
person yeah it didn't they videos don't just can't quite do it justice can they they was I don't know who'd made it but
28:56
there was um yeah uh if you I don't know whether you can p but if you I will send a
29:01
photograph of it if you maybe get it into the show is um that handmade that built from scratch of the um the tech
29:09
priests all putting the uh the Marine into his Terminator armor oh yeah there's a like a little vignette sort of
29:15
thing I've I've got a photograph of it was one of the most impressive things I've seen in agees seen a a tech priest
29:21
literally working on the uh the Terminator yeah uh symbol and stuff on the on the shoulder P yeah that was
29:28
really impressive um and Talking of that talking of painting is obviously as well
29:33
there was a lot of phenomenal uh painters there doing SE seminars um Byron in fact did one as well yeah but
29:41
we got to meet him didn't we we did Marco Fon who is lovely in real life and uh
29:51
just yeah I only saw him in passing yeah we just briefly got a chance to stop him spe in the it was enough to confirm my
29:57
love yeah yeah and to know that that that extraordinarily lovely Italian
30:03
voice is is actually the real it's just how he talks yeah yeah yeah if you don't
30:08
know Marco's work you really should have a look at him on on YouTube he's he uh
30:14
is a phenomenal painter and comes across as generally just an all around Good Egg doesn't he yeah absolutely yeah he
30:20
really nice and his work with chromatic black is is exceptional um yeah it's
30:26
great I love it I actually thought when we met him you might try and get him to say it at one point in
30:31
time I like I just have um I I've realized this about myself is that like
30:40
I I get like little phrases of of PE of people like like with C of paint like
30:48
hey guys Henry here and I just want to fall asleep and then and then if I watch
30:53
a uh a Marco video if if he talks about chromatic black and all that and oh he's
30:59
just so good well like I've told you know that one of my uh one of my customers uh who's called Serio he uh
31:06
he's a Nottingham lad but his his uh his dad's Italian his he's sadly passed but his father was Italian and he spends a
31:13
lot of time in Italy I showed him Marco yeah on a YouTube video and even he said
31:20
that's the most Italian man speaking English I have ever heard in my life yeah
31:26
yeah yeah I don't know he survives he lives in Dublin Marco I don't know he
31:31
survives yeah yeah he's brilliant yeah you know cuz Dublin has have quite a sharp sense of humor I'm surprised he
31:38
haven't been going you put that on yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah but yeah lovely
31:43
chap as well but there was um yeah there was some really good paint and Talent on display while we were there which was
31:50
really really cool to see but yeah so generally a very tiring slightly
31:57
bewildering trip oh we got out to the Grand Canyon we did get out to the Grand Canyon we got out to the Grand Canyon
32:02
and we spent uh quite a long time on a bus we did spend quite a long time on a
32:09
bus we went out with a bit of an oversharing tour guide but I don't want to go into too much
32:16
detail I hope his divorce is going through okay yeah I don't want to say too much about the chap but um he uh his
32:25
yeah is uh is is divorce has been a bit of a thing and um joshu trees yeah he
32:32
showed as Joshua trees and apparently he's in fantastic shape he is in fantastic shape if he says so himself
32:38
yeah yes that was a bit of an interesting time but it was brilliant to see the Grand Canyon um I think me and
32:45
you and everybody else might have enjoyed slightly more than Paul Ross did yes with Ross sadly uh I'm not the
32:51
greatest myself but blessing me had a a bit of a fear of heights thing going on cuz I took a photograph of a I did a
32:58
selfie of me with the Grand Canyon behind me and somebody said you don't massively look that impressed she rep no
33:05
all it was going through my mind was that I was going to topple backwards into it my favorite comment my favorite
33:11
comment on that one cuz he it was just selfie and someone was like you look spectacularly
33:19
[Laughter] underwhelmed which is just to put people
33:24
in the put people into put it into context with people my underwhelmed face
33:30
and my falling backwards into an enormous Canyon face are very very similar yeah that's all even though I
33:37
was about 10 foot away from the sides my brain was going one more step backwards cuz I was trying to get as much in and
33:43
the thought one more step backwards I'm going to be in there yes and my it I don't break but and I was then starting
33:49
to think it's about two maybe three it was about two o'clock in the afternoon
33:54
if I fall in this and die will everybody else still be able to make that 10:00
34:01
flight I did I did I did uh peek over the edge at at one point I think there might be a picture of me and Andy
34:08
like um and and again I think the thing I found with the US like like with Vegas
34:15
like you say we'd walk for like 30 minutes and you turn around and go oh
34:21
we' barely come anywhere cuz the hotel's just there yeah but it's so massive that it's like
34:27
no it is actually really far away yeah and and looking out at the Grand Canyon you're like it's all you can see it
34:34
takes up we were on this like Peninsula it takes up your entire vision and um
34:41
you're you're just sort of like right but how big is it like I know it's big
34:46
but is it big big like I it's about six miles long isn't it did did oh it's like
34:52
hundreds of miles long yeah yeah yeah I think we we were about six smiles from
34:57
oh the start of it from the start of it yeah um but yeah like I wanted to see a person on a on in a kayak or something
35:06
and then be like give perspective yeah yeah um or like see a plane go by um and
35:11
be like okay it's that big oh sadly uh our uh our traveling companion for that
35:18
day we talked about already Andy he was meant to be going up in a helicopter and it got canell because of the weather
35:24
even though all it seemed to be me to was drizzly and a bit overcast yes I
35:30
thought I thought God I get the impression that uh Vegas um V Vegas
35:36
helicopter pallets might be really really spoiled for good weather I think yeah not going up in that mate yeah yeah
35:43
yeah um but yeah that was that was a brilliant um a brilliant experience yes
35:49
it was seeing all that on so un so many many levels the comedy that has been
35:54
provided for our WhatsApp group from that day has been never ended it's been
36:00
just been a constant so you know you know to today was a week ago that we
36:06
were there oh cranky yeah and uh and I think all and I think there will still
36:11
be a comment about uh our time with the tour guide will probably still get mentioned at
36:17
some point again during today um other things then from that was
36:24
they did a um they did a Games Workshop did a preview
36:29
things coming out while we were there didn't they they did indeed um and there's much to do as lots of amazing
36:35
things um some of which I'll talk about some of it I'll talk about sketchley because it's not really my wheelhouse
36:42
but oh I'm having to really massively wrestle myself away from the idea of having a Cru
36:48
Army like I'm here to enable you don't don't enable me the um the uh they
36:54
showed the content of which is a bit weird that the to
36:59
codex uh early release box is got no tow on it it's just it's a little bit
37:04
strange it's a bit strange but to be fair the crw that are in it are absolutely lovely I thought um you know
37:12
D wrong we only seen photographs the same as the rest of you but um uh really
37:17
really nice yeah really really nice I thought um very very Dynamic poses um
37:24
the whole new rebuild of the uh the the Infantry Squad was very good and then um
37:30
massively hinted at that it was only half of what they're going to release for the Cru
37:35
and they uh gave the impression speaking to certain people they gave the impression
37:41
that that um they might be a playable Army in their own right which I think is
37:47
really exciting because they if the rest of the army that they released was as nice as what they showed then then I'll
37:53
be quite impressed uh other one that was immediately especially for you being a big fan of the books oh night Lords in
38:00
the Kill theme box yeah cuz they've been shown pre they've been shown previously were they had they been leaked so they
38:07
had to show them no no they been they they done I think I don't know if they've been a leak or they just done an actively early showing of them I don't
38:14
know and then they' saved uh the dark alar side of it which is the
38:21
oh what the mandri Yeah I thought the mandri look to me
38:27
they look like sigar models they look like they looked like and not only did they look like sigar models I hate to
38:32
say but they looked like slightly average Sigma models yeah maybe if you're a dark elar
38:39
player you're uh drari if you like um you're really excited about them and
38:44
good and pleased if you uh if you like them much better than the previous ones I just thought they looked they looked a
38:49
bit Rank and Fire Ed of Sigma to me which was a bit of a shame or I yeah I don't I don't know if I'm sort of of
38:56
like maybe being uh biased because having read the night Lord's books and
39:04
being a bit in love with them and having already seen them I was like yeah night Lords who are they playing against don't
39:10
care um like um I think yeah may like
39:15
maybe maybe a bit of that is is is coming into play with it but um yeah I thought the night Lords look fantastic
39:23
um like that upgrade kit uh as we as we mentioned before um is is brilliant yeah I think it's
39:30
fantastic the um yeah well the night Lords are so well done and and I've
39:35
heard this said a few times they're so well done that it doesn't look like a
39:40
chaos Marine upgrade Brew it looks like someone they have released night Lords Miniatures doesn't it and I think that's
39:46
a real Testament if you can make an upgrade sprew look like an army box yeah well a
39:54
an a squad to that level then you know you've you've hit really well and I
39:59
thought they were I thought they were really nice all the Miniatures that um that stood out for me where the uh were
40:06
the ones of oh which two characters from age of Sigma was Callis and tol one of
40:12
them looking like a traditional sort of witch hunter big hat sort of character yeah and then uh he's dressed in full
40:20
night armor but then toen two-handed John Wick mus yeah well musk uh pistols
40:27
then you think yeah that's pretty good and loads of new KN HS as well which also look quite nice so
40:34
again this normally I have a habit over the last few months of going oh you know AG of Sigmar knocking out the park and
40:41
40K looking a bit boring but I think the crout I think the crout had it on this one for me they really did and uh I was
40:48
desperately trying to discover what I could play them as mercenaries with in in a in a in a Space Marine Army without
40:55
me having to give it have an army of them I was like just have some and then I'll do it just some I don't know maybe
41:02
I think um do you know what may be my way to um my way to scratch the edge further down
41:09
the line is they are probably all being well might get a combat Patrol box
41:16
CW okay if they get a combat Patrol box then I can uh then I can just build and
41:21
paint a combat Patrol and just play there would they would they do that though cuz you if you can only use them
41:26
in tow would it be a bit weird having like two tow armies um no I don't think
41:34
so because I haven't um haven't Space Marine got two I mean yeah space well space Mar
41:41
like a Phobos one is is he not like a fobos there's a Space Marine combat Patrol which is the contents of
41:47
Leviathan um no no there's um like the Space Marine one is generally I think the Phobos armor and there's a vehicle
41:54
in there but you have like the first box of Warhammer I got in you know my
41:59
adulthood was um a Cy cuz
42:06
they death thingy myob um I keep forgetting the name it's terrible silver
42:13
shoulder pad oh oh yes Deathwing no it's not Deathwing No Death Watch Death Watch
42:19
there we go all the Death that's was so Much Death so Much Death that I can't remember which death um it is so I got a
42:26
death watch one um and and there's there's various like chapter ones I think there like four or five so yeah
42:32
cuz I would I've got to be honest if they are going to say they're playable as their own
42:39
Army then I wouldn't be surprised that they get their own box yeah I guess that make sense so yeah uh that might be in
42:46
the way of my of me scratching me because that is something I would like to investigate further down the line is um combat Patrol cuz I have heard good
42:54
thing from a few people that play it and I think the the idea that um you know the one box although I don't
43:02
think it's hugely ever going to happen but the idea that all boxes are balanced and he should be able to play one
43:08
against another quite you know competitively yeah would be uh would be quite good especially because I also
43:14
have always quite fancied the idea of having a sister's box as well so yeah but um if they do do that if they don't
43:20
blend them with the towel for a new combat Patrol box then I will probably
43:26
buy the crw that way I would say yeah yeah which would be pretty cool yeah I
43:32
don't I think the crew in the kill team like I thought oh yeah they're really
43:37
cool yeah um I don't know I'm not sure maybe I'm just a sucker for Power
43:43
Armor yeah maybe you are I'm just basic uh maybe that's my thing yeah I
43:49
thought I could look at the crew and go yeah that's cool but say it doesn't interest me as much as like the
43:55
Deathwing box that's coming out oh yeah well like in in this is it this this weekend you
44:02
can get your hands on is it this weekend what you can pre-order or you can no because you could pre-order pre-order already gone it got right yeah it was
44:09
well I was in um Warhammer World yesterday and I was looking to get a
44:14
Tauros which sadly they didn't have but apparently might want to have one later in the week and um I seen the Deathwing
44:23
uh Terminators In the Flesh and they whoever has painted them who will obviously be watching because we know
44:28
all of the heavy metal team watch this channel um whoever painted them has done a really banging job I've seen a lot of
44:35
heavy metal on display in Warhammer world before but um and I've always been
44:41
mightily impressed but whoever has painted the uh the Deathwing they are in
44:47
the flesh really really really crisp they've done a really banging job on them they
44:53
looked to the point that I was like oh Deathwing oh Dark Angel like no no no no
44:59
no no not doing that I've already got enough Space Marines to paint to see me till the day I pop me clogs I'm not
45:06
doing any more Space Marines of another chapter so but yeah really really nice
45:11
though yeah so that was cool um some the other thing as well which
45:17
was really nice wasn't it was that when we were selling for uh for uh AR sopers
45:23
some people bought our stuff yeah who knew yeah our uh our special blend of uh
45:31
our special brushes blend box went which was quite nice and uh some people bought
45:36
Dice and there was uh the really funny moment where um I was stood I just dealt
45:44
with a customer and they had left uh and i' been chatting to them so I was on the outside of the stand and they left and
45:50
then a British guy rocked up next to me with his mate and then went
45:56
pain and face dice here and it was like the last couple of bags that were were available that were were were there CU
46:03
they were mainly being used to show off the the dice tray the the standard art super standard dice tray and I was going
46:09
painting face dice here that's I'm really really surprised I told why are they there and then he sort of turned as
46:15
I then turned and looked at him and found out he was a big fan of the channel so if you're watching hello and
46:21
he went ah I was which was quite funny yes that was quite nice as well so yeah
46:28
generally I thought it was um I thought it was a very nice time my feet are
46:33
still a little bit throbbing yeah but uh other news is we've had hopefully which
46:39
will come off we've had the invite from uh Byron uh and his right-and man Ed
46:47
we've had the invite to go and work at adepticon of me yeah that would be very exciting very close to Chicago which
46:54
would be good I'm given real real serious thought that when I work adepticon I might put might treat myself
47:01
to new pair of slippers yeah I might just work at EP in like a big check pair of marks and Spencer slippers would they
47:07
have the the the support for your feet there well I don't know but uh I don't
47:13
know I think I made a a very large era of going to Vegas in relatively new boots and I was thinking my feet are
47:20
thring a little bit so either it will be one extreme to the other I will either be at adepticon in
47:26
slippers or I will be at adepticon in extremely far too much more than there
47:32
ever needed walking boots yeah I think will be will be one or the other for me I'm I can't quite make me mind up with
47:38
still be quite cold in Chicago in March March won't yeah it's it's going to be quite a cold area up that way so you
47:43
never know the uh G Lin walking boots might be the way yeah yeah either or
47:49
exceptionally fairy slippers yeah be one of the other why not both maybe both yeah maybe see how the day yeah yeah my
47:57
my feet were hurting a bit I uh I don't have an an incredible lower back cuz I'm in my 30s now um so if I sit on my nice
48:06
office chair I'm all right but the flight over I was like oh um so I
48:11
unfortunately on the way over had the had the argument with the gentleman in front of me who tried to put his seat
48:17
back and then couldn't quite figure out why it wasn't really going anywhere and then turned around to look at me and I
48:23
had to say your seat's not moving cuz 6'2 yes who then said to
48:30
me who then grumbled turned around and then eventually started moving the seat
48:36
again and then moved it onto me feet and I had to give it a little bit of a nudge to get it the weight of it off me legs
48:43
and then he looked around and said to me he said if I have my seat back is it going to inconvenience you and I went
48:48
yes it'll be quite sore because you've actually basically got your weight laying on me knees and um and he went
48:54
but what am I meant to do it's an 11-hour flight and I was like what am I meant to do I'm 6'2 you know I can't
49:01
take my legs off no good God I wish I could have you know what I mean and and again lovely to be travel size yes
49:08
absolutely right yeah that's what I'm going to do on the way to Chicago I'm going to sit in front of you and then I
49:13
could have me seat all the way back and you probably would notice no difference no difference and on the way back as
49:19
well you lucky blighter being the size you are three seats in a lie down oh yes
49:25
yeah I got three seats and my version about three seats was I sat in the middle and just had one leg under the
49:31
other two seats that was as good as it got took it wrong it wasn't bad but yeah I mean they give a pillow and a blanket
49:37
to each seat don't they yes um and I had my travel pillow as well um so I just
49:44
kind of strategically put some pillows over the seat bels so they didn't stab into me Y and I just I just killed up
49:50
like a baby it was wonderful yeah see I like quite I quite like being 6'2 it's
49:56
nice to be a little bit on the big sides and mildly imposing and you know and all the rest of it but
50:02
um wish you could shrink down when it comes to planes just see like I don't think the
50:09
world the world is built for the average man isn't it yeah um yeah so the one I
50:14
think that killed me the one that killed me uh with regards to my size on that
50:20
plane was that on the way over I went for a Wii and as I went for a Wii I
50:28
walked past leg room where was sat Mr Steve box from Vanguard tactics with his
50:36
mate whose name if I remember rightly is Jake who's about your height was in leg
50:43
room like this with about another seven spare foot I mean don't don't hate the play game the game but um I was like I
50:50
was I was like should have got that upgrade and you know better now and do you know
50:56
I don't know whether you seen but on the um on the Vegas WhatsApp Group which will obviously become the adepticon
51:01
WhatsApp group I have already um when Ed said can you confirm whether you can go
51:08
I said not only can confirm but I also said Ed when you book of the flight book me leg room I'll pay for the upgrade
51:13
myself yeah yeah I think it's like 50 Quid yeah do you know what yeah do you know what if I got leg room out in and
51:21
out I think that'd be 100 quid well spent I think yeah you know to be more comfor yeah yeah absolutely so but you could
51:29
pay like a thousand quid to go in upper class you know what you think I walk I
51:36
seen upper class briefly you know they they mildly don't even like you're looking at it you turn in a look no pleb
51:43
get out the plane but um avert your eyes yeah but even even um
51:50
upgraded uh coach looked quite nice yeah seats are bigger aren't they yeah instead of like 333 it's
51:57
232 yeah they look quite nice and um yeah you could just see first class
52:04
just on the other side of the bar yeah that we weren't allowed I think they they put like curtains over there don't
52:09
they they like no you're not allowed to look don't don't even don't even sniff
52:15
in that direction one day maybe but I think think who has that much money to spend
52:21
on flights to be able to not only pay you know because I'm sure I we don't know
52:27
how much it cost because you know very kindly it didn't come out of our budget but you know direct he throw to Vegas
52:34
can't be cheap but to then to then go oh screw it first class yeah yeah crazy
52:42
yeah I think Vegas is one of the cheapest places to fly to because apparently the casinos like subsidize
52:48
the flights H yeah that makes that makes sense doesn't it they they obviously need you there to yeah money I don't
52:55
think is like a necessarily like a a it is a destination isn't it like you have
53:01
to go there and the whole place is built around spending a load of money and and all that sort of stuff so uh they want
53:08
you there um true so it makes it a bit
53:13
cheaper yeah um because usually flying direct is more expensive isn't it but yeah
53:19
Absolut yeah I think yeah the quicker they can get you there and get you spending the uh the better I think um
53:26
yeah so uh think oh I'll tell you who else as well seemed to be generally really really nice how nice were Vegas
53:32
Uber drivers oh yeah they were awesome lovely people other than the other than the one who took us from the airport to
53:39
the hotel on the way in who seemed may I I'd like to think maybe he was lovely but he was just had a very long shift
53:45
yeah he didn't seem to be particularly talkative but vir everybody and not only
53:51
that but how quick they turn up oh was crazy yeah yeah we could literally be
53:56
walking towards Ed could be walking towards the door book one we'd stand outside for about a minute and a half
54:02
and it was there yeah yeah all these massive cars yeah always enormous that
54:08
were insanely comfortable yeah oh D you know what I did M make me think you know whenever I look at American cars you
54:14
always think yourself oh there's no need for it to be that big that's ridiculous and then you one you're go oh this is
54:19
lovely yeah there was one that had like there was one in there that had like the uh the onboard computer was like the
54:26
size of a really large iPad yeah yeah yeah taking some design cues from like Tesla yeah was normous yeah it was but
54:34
um so that's pretty much what happened to us while we haven't been on air for a little bit yes was Vegas was yeah yeah I
54:42
think my uh takeaway from it all was it was just very inspiring um I thought it
54:48
was really really great to like go with such a fun group of people like massive thanks to Byron and Ed for for like
54:56
bringing us along it was lovely company incredible experience we all we had a
55:02
wonderful time um seeing Byron like do all his tuition and the classes and get
55:09
but annoyingly making it look so easy as always oh that's the big um and and seeing it
55:16
like I think I think my main takeaway is as much as you can see in person please
55:22
do it um like if if you are unsure about
55:27
tournaments go to one and and and try and experience the vibe and and and see
55:33
what it's like everybody there was so friendly and welcoming and lovely and
55:38
seeing everybody just sort of you got you know what 3,000 people everybody's
55:45
there because they think Warhammer is awesome um and you know there there'd be some outliers and I'm sure somebody went
55:52
and didn't have incredible experience um you know I think that that was that
55:59
was for me like just seeing people in the flesh rather than talking about it
56:04
on the internet yeah um was and seeing painting up close seeing I saw so many
56:09
awesome armies cuz CU Byron Byron judged the age of Sigma like best painted oh
56:14
there was a chap who came through uh there was an American chap who came through with um some sort of Troll Army
56:24
yeah that was all Christmas themed where they all had for weapons had like sort of things that were derivative of like
56:31
candy canes didn't he yeah and one of the trolls that I assume the original model would have been throwing like a
56:36
boulder or something throwing Elf on the shelf's head as and it was just and even
56:42
was on like a little frosted sort of Base wasn't it for the display it was really really lovely it was some really
56:49
quite really really interesting armies that people brought over to you know as they were they were coming through cuz I
56:54
was saying to people oh can we see your army and some of them are really really cool and really imaginative to be fair
57:01
yeah so I was knackered me feet are a bit sore I think I've only just about come
57:06
to terms with the fact I know what day it is but uh Vegas is really weird but
57:12
I'm still very very glad I went I think yeah yeah Wonder wonderful wonderful experience like I don't think I can say
57:19
go to Vegas go to lvo because it's going to be cost prohibitive uh I I wouldn't have gone if if no and I don't know I
57:26
still other than if I was very kindly asked back to to work there next year I
57:34
I think I'd be quite happily not to see Vegas again I I think I really I think cuz the
57:41
thing is you've got to accept as well as everywhere not everywhere in the world
57:46
is for you and you know I uh I I I didn't uh I don't think Vegas was
57:54
massively for me I think one of the major travesties of Vegas was that I had
58:00
a cup of tea in the morning before you kindly picked me up to drive to Heathrow
58:05
and then my next cup of tea was about half an hour after I got out of your car
58:10
back outside me front door nearly a week without a cup of tea what's that about that's a long time it long yeah I don't
58:19
think I've ever felt more English the fact when I turned up even though I knew it was going to happen when I turned up to my hotel room to discover that they
58:26
don't have a kettle I was like good God the people are like Savages how can you have no Kettle horrify
58:34
to only joking no American viewers but you really need to embrace the electric cattle for those of it seems to be thing
58:41
you haven't really got your head round over there yet yeah yeah well as as um
58:46
as Ross said we share a language but but not much else yeah it would seem it was yeah it was a bit of cut shot but we
58:52
share language on Warhammer it would seem yes yeah yeah right anything else
58:58
it was lovely no I think I think that's generally covered everything um yeah there we go I think my my well like I
59:06
can't oh hang on hang on you can't not talk about what they like 4 and a half pounds in weight gummy bears oh yeah
59:14
good God I came back and Haley said you would never have a shop in England called I love
59:20
sugar that just wouldn't be allowed no the tax on it alone um would be would be insane that gummy
59:27
bear would be get buying that gummy bear and bringing it into the UK when you
59:32
consider sugar tax would probably be quite about the same amount of bringing that the same weight of cocaine from
59:39
Vegas into the UK and then I was talking to him I'm just on this gummy bear I'll put a photograph up on on Instagram um
59:46
The Gummy Bear I then thought how do you eat it do you just know on it and then I
59:53
thought and then I said to Haley do you take it off in slices yeah and she said that starts to feel a bit like a serial
59:59
killer thing just slicing bits of gummy bear off just your ears going yeah start with the appendages yeah um to really
1:00:07
prolong the suffering or you like you know like a family of you just know a bit of the gummy bear and then go there you go and
1:00:13
then you all just don't know where I was eating yeah yeah starts on a leg Yeah
1:00:19
just pass it round um were you eating the left or the right or the left or I'll e the other on yeah just just lady
1:00:26
in the trampet with with your significant other um oh yes it was just
1:00:31
like anything that you've seen before in England it was like that but just had to be done so much way bigger way bigger I
1:00:38
think the most normal food we had out there was when we went to a pizza place yeah which amazingly nice stuff and very
1:00:46
I don't get me wrong I know they work for tips but the are the the staff in America are very good yeah yeah you know
1:00:51
um and then I think did we go to a tie place at one stage yeah we went to a place on on three mon Street yeah felt a
1:00:57
bit British didn't it quite normal IE like oh we could eat like this in the UK yeah um we walked past the Heart Attack
1:01:06
Grill um which if there's a massive sign that says if you're over
1:01:14
350 in in like weight yes you eat for free um maybe I will go back to Vegas
1:01:20
I'll just get on a bit of can't be far off that I I don't know what that is in to think
1:01:28
in old money but um but yeah that and I I looked at the because I was
1:01:33
recommended to go love the idea go if you're really fat we're here to help you get fatter yeah yeah we want to keep
1:01:40
what a really great idea yeah um which is if you have a horrific heroin addiction we'll give you it for free
1:01:47
yeah yeah yeah already addicted yeah free drugs um yeah and I I looked at the
1:01:54
restaurant because uh one one of our um one of our followers said oh you're going to Vegas go to go to the Heart
1:02:00
Attack Grill and the the the weight staff are dressed up in like nurse's
1:02:05
uniform if you go in you're given an apron uh or like a like a like like
1:02:11
you're going to have surgery yeah um and if you don't finish your food they spank
1:02:17
you um and the largest the largest thing you can buy on the menu if you want
1:02:24
additional bacon you can only have 40 slices of bacon wasn't it 40 slices of
1:02:30
bacon for s for $7 or something something ludicrous yeah although American bacon is a bit weird it's like
1:02:37
very very small little yeah like streaky bacon yeah I like streaky bacon it was I do like streaky bacon no I like it to
1:02:45
look I actually do like it to look like it was once bit a bit of a
1:02:50
pig it has to be the correct shape has to be the correct has to be that shape yeah but uh yeah yeah yeah wonderful
1:02:58
experience I think yes my takeaway was um you know if you're unsure whether you hate tournaments or not go to one um
1:03:06
absolutely I think my experience from that would be um that I I would be Keen
1:03:12
to to go and and share that experience and and just have a have a play I
1:03:18
wouldn't be going to win of course I wouldn't be and with with a thousand people playing 40K I can only
1:03:25
imagine we've seen some quite sad 10% maximum would be wanting to place like
1:03:31
really really high and like of course you want to do well and you want to win some games or or you know go go and have
1:03:37
fun but I can't imagine if somebody went right I'm going to lvo because I want to win the biggest ITC 40K event in the
1:03:44
world um I can only imagine a small percentage of those people would of
1:03:50
going with that mindset um so I think the Vas majority of the time you'll play
1:03:56
against if if I went I would be playing against people like myself that just want to have sharing that experience and
1:04:04
and push models around yeah I think it well the only bit that I thought from the tournament look quite sad was people
1:04:11
who looked like you could tell they were getting ready to go home on the Saturday night where they hadn't made the cut oh
1:04:18
yes yeah there was a few people carrying armies about looking slightly DED yeah cuz when we came in on the Sunday
1:04:24
morning yeah there was people leaving with like trays of armies and stuff and that that was a bit like oh oh they
1:04:30
didn't make the cut on it look I felt bit sorry for yeah yeah a little bit I think that was the only time where I was like oh yeah it's it's a competition and
1:04:38
if it's not worth staying around and you haven't made the cut then why would you stay if you're in that competitive
1:04:44
mindset I wonder whether that's a thing at uh at the hotels in that you can you
1:04:49
can know you book in for the XEL days and go if I haven't gone X Amela games with with the win can I book out early
1:04:56
can I leave early checkout yeah yeah do I have to pay for the additional night
1:05:01
um while I sit in my room sobbing looking at my Army I mean you could gamble well it is
1:05:08
true yeah you could gamble yeah you could go in there but yeah yeah yeah it was awesome massive thanks to uh the guys
1:05:15
from marus for for taking us it was it was a wonderful experience yeah mhm
1:05:21
indeed that'll do us I think I think so goodbye for me goodbye from
1:05:26
her yeah see you next time
1:05:32
byebye now you're woking up what what was that what what have I missed and you were snoring
