I assume the date is 12 September as the date format you used is abit confusing for old fella like me!

I will be there.
It looks as though the ant events are all working out just right with
RFC02 12th Sept
RRC19 24/25 Oct
AWS30 14th Nov

You are right about the date Simon. Itś the format the events database uses and not Jackś choice!

Actually itś very logical to use yyyy-mm-dd as then dates automatically sort into chronological order, because the parts are in order of significance. When you get used to it itś quite nice, certainly better than the American mm-dd-yyyy format!

I can see the use now and as you say, it's better than the American format which is creeping into everyday use. Also pronoucing schedule as if it's spelt with a "K" is even more annoying.

Anyway enough of this, the whole family is coming to the event although I fear our bot will be rubbish compared the other machines.

Sadly we can't come to this one. It's Nathan's robot wars birthday party.
