Blimey Rob youve been busy, 4 machines.

We want to do at least one Welsh event this year, what with the Wayne being half Welsh, and as we delayed too long to get in at Denbigh (you wouldnt think itd take so long to make a decision) it looks like itll have to be this one. :)

there is the wrexham, one too, but why not do 2 next year????
aprilish time probably
Personally, Ive no problem with doing two but its going to be dependant on when the Wrexham events held next year.
Ive had no time to discuss this but April would probably be fine. However, Waynes wife is due to give birth at the end of May so much later could be difficult.

Oh is anyone planning on travelling up saturday night ?
Jonno
we thought about it, are there any expenses towards hotels?
were paying ur petrol, what more dya want :)
Some are using that to help hotel costs.
JOnno
Gordon and myself will be staying Saturday Night -
Is there a rate anywhere, decent bar, meeting place, Good looking barmaids - All the important stuff.
Roger.
For Christ sake, its Aberystwyth. Take some wellies and vaseline and find some white fluffy things to keep you warm on the back seat.
Whatever floats ya boat Rob!:)
Rob, Im not quite sure of the customs that you guys in wales have, but we in Scotland at least like to take our cheap dates to an even cheaper hotel - Then you can at least get a full english and a pint of heavy in the morning.
Im starting to worry about you Rob !

Aber is an awesome place to go if you want to get totally wasted but can seem a bit studenty if that is not your thing. On the front there is a very cheap (and not too nice) pub called Inn on the Pier for anyone counting the pennies, this is next door to Pier Pressure the club that is a bit rank. Back from the front there are a few decent pubs including a big weatherspoons with the Lord beachings (good pub) and a wierd pub that does loads of cocktails opposite. The Academy (trendy pub) is just down the road. Hope this helps

And dont forget the velcro gloves Rob :)
Rob,
Ewe2, Lambsy, & Cutlet will no longer be attending this event for fear of their own safety!
Ian
LOL :)
Must be a joke in there somewhere about lamb and chips.
But seriously, before the rather sheepish offerings of Rob, The question was whether there was anyone (Besides myself) booking accomodation for the Saturday night, if so where, and had anyone negotiated a rate. Not if the hotel offered a shepharding service, the carpets were Woolen Shagpile or infact anything whatsoever to do with sheep. Can we please drop the subject of sheep. In fact can we have absolutely no more mentions of bloody sheep.
Me-eh
The best pub in aber would have to be scholars. big comfy chairs & cheap drink :)
i would bring along my antweight if id started building it yet :D the uni doesnt like us using power tools in halls :sad:
right guys,
sorted out our accomodation for saturday night... a nice hotel about 10 miles outside aber.
single rooms £19.50
doubles £45
Contact me if u want further details.
JOnno
if you want to leave some robots in my room on campus overnight, feel free... dont worry if they come back empty ;)
The best pub has to be the student union!
Cheap beer, lots of good music, and whats more....
ok, no fraternizing.
Watch out for the snow!! Hope nobody gets stuck.
Nah it will be gone by then if not it will be Roaming Robots on ice
ive fitted skates to ripper tonight, along with its roboteQ :)
Jonno
That tootoo will suite you jonno
