The Gnomes are Coming!
« on: 2009-04-28, 11:13:38 »
I have some great news! The Armour Gnomes (i.e. Nute Scott and his lovely lady Donna),
will be a guest vendor at the MDRF for two weeks starting September 26th-27th and October 3rd-4th!  ;D

Excellent. That's one thing that MDRF always seems to be lacking-- armor vendors!

Or do you mean that your wife thought better of it and knocked some sense into you? :)

Well the Gnomes have gone back home to rest, recoup and replenish their stock for the next faire season!
Nute and Donna said they did well enough at Maryland that they will try and get back next year ~ HUZZAH!

Thanks to Nute and Donna for coming to MDRF! Hope to see you both again real soon!  :)

Huzzah! I'm glad they did well. You never really know in the temporary vendor tents. I think a lot of people don't realize they're shops! But yes, MDRF definitely could use a few armorers. I hope they can return!

...You never really know in the temporary vendor tents. I think a lot of people don't realize they're shops! ...

I suspected the same after their first weekend and tried to help draw attention to their tent by standing
as a "guardian" at the front corner of their tent on Sunday morning...


I also had quite a bit of fun with some of the curious danes who wasn't sure if I was real or one of their suits
of armor!  :D
