I ought to share it with you as I know that a lot of people have only seen

To anyone who is interested in D20 gaming or if there is a group for DnD,
WoW, Starwars or somthing similar that are currently open for new players or
starting up, please can you contact me. I want to get into it but have no
where to really start. I went to that pub there on westmoreland street and
they were just doing wargames. I'd really appreciate any response towards
this.

Thanks

Alex
