Con, November 2009: Gaelcon report

[Shane]

All excited from three days of gaming excellence, Shane, Dave, humbug and Liam talk Gaelcon.

Liam mistakenly states that his woodland camouflage would make him ideal for a Vietnam game. As everyone knows, U.S. Woodland camo was only introduced in 1981, and was aimed at fighting Soviets primarily in a European-type open environment. U.S. grunts in Vietnam wore plain olive drab, with Special Forces in a variety of other camouflage such as Tigerstripe. I apologise for not smacking down this most obvious gaffe immediately. For shame, man. FOR SHAME!

(you know, earlier this year I was swearing that I would never become this)

That charity was http://www.cari.ie/

What is the CARI Foundation?
The CARI Foundation is a registered charity founded in 1989. Our primary aim is to provide a professional, child centred therapy and counselling service to children, families, and groups who have been affected by child sexual abuse.

Alongside this we aim to provide the most up to date education and information service for children, adults and professionals on the dynamics of child sexual abuse, and, moreover, to raise public and political awareness of these issues.

As a non-governmental organisation we operate on a not-for-profit basis ensuring that our services are accessible, regardless of a client's means or situation.

As someone who actually wore camo to the Vietnam game, let me say that my only regret was not having a red bandana.
