PGI Contributors of the past.

By my reckoning PGI must be close to celebrating 20 years as a magazine.

With this in mind, are there any people who wrote for PGI in the early days still playing or involved with the magazine.

Yes I know Robbo's been there forever, but what about Matt Tudor (PGI Editor), Tim Tigh (photographer and editor) and other people that were involved, do they still write or play?

I was PGI's Chief Northern Correspondent from about 91 to 95.

I gave up the sport in 95 in order to try and get a social life and a life out of paintball, but I began playing again 2 years ago.

Anyone else still at it?

My only real connection now with Paintball is this site, Knees/Time/money are a bit of a hinderence. . Still speak to a couple of NWC team mates from time to time but that's about it.

Was wondering where you had been Ralphy. I knew I was getting old when someone came up to me at the weekend and said you used to play with my dad on NAM! Still mixing it up regularly though.

I wrote one article for Issue 98 way back in May 97 when playing for Gulo. Tim Tighe provided the pictures for that.

So by calculation I guess PGI hits 20 next April??

What do you mean getting old

 

[Spike]

ok I can never get as old as you I know, but then you were old then too Are we likely to see you around at anytime soon? Perhaps next campaign?

I did try to get to this years one but other things got in the way

I now live in Northants so it's a bit of a trip to Basildon which is not too much of a problem (assuming that's where it'll be in 09 ) so i'll have to get my passport renewed and go to the Drs to get my jabs boosted.

Everyone in paintball is still 'at it'
