James,
Reading through that lot, Im struck by one thought....You have far, far too much time on your hands!!

[robotwars]

Featherweight Database

what ya on about.... its nothing like tantrum....

the disc is old neoterics, which was the 24kg walker in last years extreme, and when you see it.... you will notice the difference.

I know, I thought it was that one. I saw it at Ironbridge last year.

Just messing wiv ya because on paper its quite close.

too much time on my hands.... oh if only.
Too many projects not enough time.

Started a bloody 24kg walker now, and the others are still not all finished. One day Ill learn. At least Dinky is dead so I cant use that as an excuse not to finish another....
Gear boxes for Trinity arrived today, any heavyweights want a fight?
