[Churchofgaming] Churchofgaming Digest, Vol 46, Issue 13 Dark Heresy 27th May 2012

Fri May 25 01:49:06 UTC 2012

Ladies & Gents,

Dark Heresy is still on this Sunday, but start a little later.  I have been
asked to fill in as a linesman at an amateur soccer game, so I aim to start
the session at *3pm*.  I hope this isn't problematic for any of the
players...?

Cheers

Redmond
