Alan, Sorry I didnt reply before but I only just saw this post. Were going up Saturday during the day and have a room at the hotel below, not sure if theyll still have rooms, we booked after Doncaster. Our room is £60 but I think they were some others in that area with rooms, some cheaper some more expensive.

Great event!! Exellent arena!! Well done Jonno and crew!!
Firstly Im feeling better, Thanks Angela, Steve, Et Al. Sorry to give you all a fright!
The re-designed Pillow Torque was on form, taking 2nd in the feathers.. Sorry about the wheels James!
Scorpion Jr did OK too, plenty of damage to various machines. Pete, Is Push going to be repairable? Sorry! John is actualy feeling just a little guilty about that! (Now thats got to be a first!)
Congrats. to the Nipper fleet, yet another well deserved win.
Geoff.

A little Disappointed Litter Hitter didnt get to fight, RRs new arena is great and cant wait until Shefield for the added Arena effects.
-
30th Jan 2005, Roaming Robots Aberystwyth
great event
we are the first heavy to get flipped out of the new arena :)
-
30th Jan 2005, Roaming Robots Aberystwyth
Your welcome kenny, anytime :P
Merlins buffer tan certainly improved the flipper, even if it did have other problems, and Wizard didnt get a run due to a drive bearing ceasing up. But Knightmare ran well on its first outing, coming 2nd.
The arena was great, not only were we in its first fight were the first HW to flip someone out (even tho we didnt mean to!).
Well done to the Big Nipper crew (they seem to be winning to much recently), and well done to RR crew.
Well get a report up soon.
