Hi guys,
Finally home and awake from Debenem, and a week of madness at lakeside shopping centre, ( 21 school robots, shunt working as our house robot inside the arena, a Ripper and Behemoth show throughout¡K.. oh and a major bomb scare leading to a controlled explosion nearly blowing the front of alders shop window off ) eventful isn¡¦t the word Æ’º
I am pleased to finally confirm, that the GRA/Roaming Robots European Extravaganza Weekend will be taking place in Grantham, in the Midlands UK, on the dates above over the two days.
The venue is a 1000 seat leisure centre, and the style of the show will be as per Preston with the entertainments company heavily involved, providing a great show atmosphere.
We¡¦re looking at camping for the accomodation, considering it will be BBQ weather after all. More info later.
We plan for teams to arrive Saturday, running an evening show, which then takes us to the Saturday night social, Ten pin Bowling !!!! We will be organising an inter country ( friendly of course Æ’º ) bowling competition probably taking over the whole bowling centre, at which food should be provided for all.
Sunday, we plan on having two shows in the afternoon, allowing for hangovers to disappear, robots to be fixed, gossip to be discussed on the previous nights adventure.
Leading to a European Extravaganza Winner for 2004.
If tickets sell well then there may be more shows staged throughout, but this is the minimum so far.
Then on to Newark, where the Germans and Dutch have expressed an interest in staying on in the UK through the week and coming to Newark as well.
Anyone else expressing an interest in coming along let me know.

P.s I will be asking admin to clear up this thread due to earlier confusion if no body has a problem with this.
Gman will be there
Pussycat will be there.
Mr Stu
considering i seem to be able to attract trouble at these social thingys I should stay well clear.... on the other hand it does give me something to do whilst my robot quietly burns evry penny I have
so yeah Im definatly up for it
BBQ, Beer, Bowling, Beer and Battleing
Sounds like a winner to me, hopefully the beer will help my bowling, couldnt make it any worse
Good thinking about afternoon shows to get rid of the hangover
I am planning to go to both events anyway. Today i planned my days off from work for this.
Just a quick question:
Should my robot be in need of repairs between GRA and Newark, is there a roboteer willing to help me out in offering some workshop time so its ready to go without going back to Holland?

Where will you be based for that week?
Nowhere in particular, if my robot is ok id probably find a campsite near Newark. But since ill be driving myself i could go anywhere.
It might not even be an issue, just would like to know if it is possible to do some repairs somewhere should they be needed.
