Inter county bowling, sounds fun. I had better go and get some practice in. How many other Welshies are going to be there to fly the flag?

Leo, I wouldnt worry too much there will always be someone who can help. Although we are around 2 hours drive away if you carnt find anywhere else we are happy to help. When we went down to Debenham we broke 2 drive shafts and Rex was kind enough to let us use his workshop to make 2 new ones. It took a couple of hours and we were ready to fight again (and go on to win). Without his help it certainly would have been difficult so again another thanks to Rex.

I live about an hour away from the GRA event, and about 30 minutes from Newark. I don€™t have a fully equipped workshop as we keep the robots in Birmingham, but it has the bare requirements.

Still awaiting confirmation, but hopefully, you should be able to move on from Grantham to Newark, on the Wednesday. Where we will be setting up for the weekend.

More info, as and when I get it.

Several other roboteers already offered Babs and me a place to stay.So I think we will spend a few says cruising trough the UK, at least to say Hi to some of the persons I didnt meet in person up to now-Like Simon Fargher.Or to get in touch with people missed for a serious time, Like Woody.

If I can find a way around those trice damned elections in Belgium on 13 june.This is mandatory, with heavy fines attached when you dont go.

Just give me some time at the Town Hall to get the necessary paperwork for our absence during the elctions done (bugger! I do LIKE elections, going to the UK means we wont get to vote...) and all will be well. Too bad we cant bring the dog along, she did not get her shots on a regular basis throughout the past 9 years so will normally not be allowed to set paw on the British Isles. Ever. (Stupid, oudated, unscientific, old-fashioned, bureau(c)ratic quarantine rules... even when she did have her rabies shots every 3 years or so and never ever swear-to-God-honest-its-true came in contact with rabies-infected critters its still not safe enough... I hope next time at the vet to get some answers and maybe the paperwork - did I mention I love paperwork ?)

Sorry that we cant come more often, but my illness and some necessary work on the house (kitchen and bathroom !) are being a major drain on our finances for some time now.

All,

sorry to have to tell you that Hard wont make it for the GRA event. We will come over the next weekend.
Reason is that Jan cant make it...and of course we have the same mumbo jumbo (read paperwork) to go through as Babeth does...

So, well be there in Newark..and I presume most of you will be there as well.

Cheers,

Frank

Babeth & Mario,
I would very much like to offer you a room during your stay in the UK, and to any non UK visitors. Kim and I can offer two (2) rooms, one has a double bed and the other has two singles. I am able to offer full workshop facilities (including machining and MIG, TIG and Arc welding and quite an extensive stock of materials).

My home is about 75Km north of Grantham and 40Km north of the Newark showground.

Thankyou Aurthur for your kind offer,

Im sure that will be a great asset to the event if required.
We wouldnt want any robot not being able to take part throughout because of the lack of repair facilities.

Is there still any spaces for Heavy Weights and are vertical spinners allowed to fight

[robotwars]

Roaming Robots - GRA Germany 12th 13th June

HI Marlon,

Yes there are spaces still left, however currently, we only run discs in the feather weight class, and not heavyweights.

Your more than welcome to come along for the weekend, disc unplugged, for some driving fun, or, the cosford event are planning on running all kinds of discs.
