Recently Dave met up with the mighty Gav Thorpe at Warhammer World to get an insight into Gav's gaming, designing and writing world and how that fits in with being a father.
We hope that you enjoy the interview as much as Dave did.
If you have any questions that you might want to ask Gav then let us know in the comments and we'll try to oblige.
Hi Gav, thanks again for letting
us interview you. It’s a real honour to meet one of the legends of Games
Workshop.
So, what sort of games are you
playing with your kids at the moment?
“We’re playing kids games at the moment really, memory games.
Games like ‘Pizza Pizza’, where you’re trying to match bits of pizza. He got
that for his birthday, it’s quite good. He likes games, and we’ve got a lot of
them in the house so he’ll quite often just get the pieces out and look at them
or be making up his own games with them and ask us to join in. There’s a few
components that get found later under the sofa but we never want to tell him
not to play with them, we don’t want any negative association with doing that.
It’s the same with books really.
I recently dug out some older games, like ‘Lost Valley of the
Dinosaurs’, which I played when I was younger, so hopefully when he’s older he
might like them. Basically we’re throwing everything at him! Sometimes we’ll
take him to The Dice Cup in town too where there’s lots of games for him to
take a look at.”
