If anyone's interested, we booked a double room and a familly room at the Mansfield Premier Inn, then decided it was to tough to go to the AWS & York, so if anyone wants them, PM

Alan have you got a spare trolly for toxic as I can't fit mine in the car, or some spare floor tiles as I can bring the little trolly but its 10cm high so need an extra 30cm for height.

Re: Robots Live! @ National Railway Museum - 23rd/24th March

I might have a spare trolley (no Guarantees!) not bringing the floor tiles, all my robots are coming (if I get them fixed) so there trolleys are being used. We'll figure something out

The roboteers email went out late Saturday night, can teams please make sure you reply to it with the names of the team members attending.

Whilst welding my flipper I've kicked the full co2 bottle onto the floor, as it went over the edge I thought f@@@@ and ran thinking it would blow up ! Luckily it landed on the screw top valve and smashed it in half, so if anyone has a spare handle that would be great !

Thanks to alan and robots live, I thought the venue was great and had a brilliant weekend, sorry i couldnt stay to help but as we were driving home into snow i wanted to get away a little earlier.
There was loads of amazing things to go and see there just wasnt enough time there !
I have a little work to do know an i need to sort out a bosch 750 a wotty and some air pipes
the motor is 1 year old aswell

you know im sure robots are more trouble than women

toby drove nearly all of the 7 fights this time only giving me the controller once or twice, he would have been in all 8 but i got chuck ready and just forgot to put it in the arena :blush: he wasnt happy !
but then he got an oota and seems he is more confident now, next he will want to drive toxic2 !
but getting him to drive me home would be better
see you all soon

Thanks to Robots Live for a great event! Hopefully we'll be back there next year as it seemed really popular.

Most importantly all the robots are (mainly) still working. Eruption's fine, Explosion's back on top form and Annihilation has a minor drive issue, but that can't be too hard to fix.

See you all at the Gadget Show
