Hi Dave (and all),

Just a quicky to let you know I'll be coming along to spectate, and run Epic Robotics' Express 'Bot Bodging 'Shop (ie. I'm happy to help people repairing their 'bots and getting them working

), and I'm happy to assist in any other way you'd like as well ^^.

See you all tomorrow!

First off, it's a terrible shame to here that Pete is ill

Secondly, Dave, will you bring that small screwdriver of mine with you tommorrow?
And finally, It looks like it should be a good day tommmorrowwow, despite the absences. There are a couple of new faces as well, so it will be interesting to see how they do.
See you all tommorrow

I can't make it either too. Have a problem at work I need to fix unfortunately and they aren't willing to let me do it Sun.

Take loads of photos for me

The Army Cadet force website links to
this map

Since this seems to be based on coordinates from a GPS, hopefully it is accurate!

I've got some more bad news guys, my only ant in a battle worthy state is Terrior, so the others won't be competing this time

Oliver, James will take photos of all the robots - although this task seems to be getting smaller by the hour

RONNY has been on the "Swiss cheese" diet today - bigger holes in the flipper to lose those last couple of grams. Ouchie has now evolved some "wings" to hopefully prevent him from being rolled over first hit by every other robot.

Have borrowed a digital video camera so have 60GB of recording available - should be enough!
