Unfortunately my work is sending me to Goa for a week - No, it really is work... OK, dont believe me then. Anyway it clashes with the next proposed Yorkshire FRA Social on 17th September. So I am proposing to put back the social another week to Saturday 24th September. This only clashes with Battlebots as far as I can see.
The next Yorkshire FRA Social is confirmed to be at the Sun Inn again.It will be held at 7.30pm on Saturday 24th September.Sorry about the short notice.
The pub is about 5 miles from Junction 38 on the M1. Please pass on this invitation to any other roboteers who would like to attend, and are not on my circulation list. I will be happy to send a map to anyone who wishes to come.
The address of the pub is:-
The Sun Inn
62 Barnsley Road
Flockton
Wakefield
West Yorkshire
WF4 4DW
Tel: 01924 848437
The provisional agenda is:-

2. The future of the FRA
4. Exchange of information/equipment between roboteers

We had 6 of us at the Yorkshire FRA Social at the Sun Inn in Flockton on 24th September. Most of the time we chatted generally about robot things. However we did discuss the vacant position of Chair of the FRA, and said that Geoff had done a good job. The less good news is that there were no takers for his position.
I picked up a tip to wrap insulation tape around my magmotors if they tended to rotate in their clamps.
We watched some entertaining robots fights on Graemes mobile phone. Amazing what you can store on a mobile phone these days!
The evening ended with people looking at the body of my new robot in the back of the car. It will get finished ASAP! I want to see it working.
The next regional social may well a Christmas one, organised by Trevor Wright. It could be be a joint affair half-way between Nottingham and Huddersfield. Well tell you as soon as it has been sorted.
Sorry for the delay in replying. The Christmas get-together with the Nottingham crowd fell through Im afraid.
Im in Shanghai at the moment. You could organise a Yorkshire FRA Social yourself. If you make it in the first 2 weeks of February, Ill be there (before I return to Shanghai). Otherwise it wont be until Im back in England permanently, probably in April.
Best wishes,
Jeremy
PS. Youve got the address and phone number of the Sun Inn further up this thread. Of course you can locate it anywhere you like. Flockton was chosen to give reasonable access for people from both West and South Yorkshire (and points further South).
I you do arrange it, post a note of this thread on the forum and Ill be happy to circulate my list of past attendees.

It is a fair time since we had a Yorkshire FRA Social (last September).So I guess that we will just have a general chat about how things have gone since we last met.
Do let me know if you think that you will be able to attend.
