It's going mahogany :P
Sign ups are going really well thank you every one. We are over half full already. Make sure you get your entry in quickly if you want a guaranteed place.
We can't do anything about car parking unfortunately however, entry will give you free access to the Gadget Show Live :) We will schedule all the battles so you know how long you will have between each battle to go for a wonder around the show.
would a provisional sign up be ok?
Well you have to submit payment before getting the sign-up form so that might be a bit tricky :PQuote:

Just a general heads-up that there is a Travelodge sale starting at 6am tomorrow for £10 rooms between March 6th and October 31st for anyone looking at accommodation.
erm, i have no idea, ill have to have a good think and look at time scale etc and see if it can be done :)
tried the £10 travel lodge deal that went live on their site today, but i couldnt seem to get a room for £10, think theirs a catch in it somewhere.....
got the last of my parts ordered from robochallenge and technobots today
I didn't have much luck either Adrian. Got up a little earlier this morning just so I had a good chance of getting something but it didn't help :(
The site didn't seem to be able to cope with the demand either, which was a little annoying considering how popular an offer such as this is likely to be.
I think I saw something about the £10 rate applying to one-night stays only, so if you put in for two or three nights for the competition, it won't show up. I think you'd have to book each night individually and hope that the same room was available for £10 every night. Must look into it more this evening.
Alternatively, I checked out prices for the Hilton, which is located within the same overall area as the NEC and is around five minutes walk (I think) from the venue, but I thought £1017 for three nights accommodation for a robot event was just a little much :lol:
do u have to pay in full at the hilton at time of booking, or at departing? could always do a runner :lol:
im only 45 mins from home so think i will just travel.
I imagine if they saw me they'd change there policy and make me pay in full on arrival. I am watching this forum keenly to see where people get good deals for staying.
nobody camping it? :sad:
