Howdy there.
Just been granted access to the forums and looking forward to fighting crime with my fellow Judges.
Anyhoo! Better introduce myself properly methinks.
My name is Iain Hamilton, 49 from Bonhill in Bonny, wet, frackin' cold Scotland.
I work for the Social Work/Criminal Justice section of Glasgow City Council an have done for the better part of 6 years. Prior to my current post I worked in various areas of the council for 10 years.
I have been lucky enough to nab Andrew Martin's (Judge Martin) 2012 Dredd costume and I will be picking it up next weekend when he comes to Scotland for a family outing. I got it over on the UK Garrison site where we are both members and I have been so for nearly 9 years. love costuming and when the chance to get a 2012 Judge uniform came up it was a no brainer as to which way that was going to end up. Other costumes I have at this time are a full Stormtrooper armour outfit with all the bells and whistles, a TOS Cylon (only one in Scotland) and an Star Wars Ep.I Senate Guard which I am proud to say is the only one in the 501st Legion that has real horse hair for the double plumes.
Favourite Dredd story of all has got to be "The Cursed Earth" and once this intro is done I will be off to read the first book in the mega collection that just been released. Other hobbies include going to the cinema and taking care of my Dillan (the wold's most handsome Yorkie!), Bow and Ellie (my Degu's) and of course Ra my immortal gerbil (4 yrs old and still going strong).
I do also have a long suffering girlfriend somewhere amongst that lot and strangely enough one of the few films (298 films and counting) she enjoyed as much as me was "Dredd 3D" so this must be fate.
Right! I have waffled on long enough but looking forward to reading up and all that's on these forums but I had better go as Dillan is sitting here crossed legged and with a strained expression in his wee hairy face.
