When I visited my old hobby shop, in north London's Finchley, one of the staff there said the local games club is little changed, and that 20 years later I'd still be one of the younger players.

Talking to one of the staff at Stockholm's SF/F Bookshop he says something similar, that the players nowadays are mid 30s and up.

Where's the new generation?

Is this a problem where you are?
