Didnt see a thread for us so thought i would make one!
Lets get some sort of meet together.
count me in.
Me too - although Im only in the midlands at the weekends.
and me
Technically west mids falls in with south mid doesnt it? But yes count be in, im always up for losing at karting or something.
Count me in too. (well i did used to live in the midlands lol)
my dad stupidly paid £50 for 16 people to go paintballing and then the 16 have to buy all the paintballs which is about £10-£20 depending on how many you use - which works out about the same as it would cost anyway lol
he got ripped off but o well lol
Tony Sommerfield ( our area rep ) is sorting organiseing something. what do you all fancy doing and when?
i recon go karting or paintballing or bowling
i cant do it in the summer as im going to austrailia but any wekend im mostly free exept for events
any weekend for me 2, but i go to america in the last 2 weeks of april.
ok il let him know. just remember though its not his job to organise fun days out lol. need to have a disscusion and give ideas so he can represent us at commitee meetings
even a get together for a beer or 2, or shandy for the under 18s! would be good.
the main problem now is that its hard to find a date when theres not an event and people are free lol.
Ok Guys here we go,Catch Corner Pub Stafford
5mins off Junction 13 M6, a traditional Midland Fighting League hang out, food available, we used to run many robots around the car park years ago,but havent for close on three years,
now, but we can have a get together there whenever the majority of you can make it,does anyone have a preffered date ,!!!we can chew the fat,talk Robots or what ever, bring photos,or just get drunk , email me with what you want,and thats what we will do,---- Tony :proud:
sounds good. im ok whenever on the week ends, some time soon would be good.
Same here, Whos designated driver then james? I vote Grant lol
Ok I will cross check dates to see that there are no events, clashing,
and nominate a day ,probably a Saturday, while we are at it does any other region want to join in, the more the merrier,
as its our first social for a long time,
:mrgreen:
Long time since I last went there Tony! Had some good fun in the car park then.
Met a guy there who lived less than 2 miles from me - from the Pitbull team - and we are still mates. We have built 3 walking machines together for ukrobotics and Robolympics.
Might bring them along.
Trev
I second that Grant should be the driver. Dave you will have to bring 360 along to show off.
lol, me driving??? Might be a taxi back then :proud:.
The place sounds fine with me though.
ill drive , but i cant learn til end of july - ill pass in 6 weeks tho :P
I dont think youll be driving then lol.
Ok Guys , if everyone can make it how about next Saturday the 19th ,nothing much going on by the looks of it , so strike while irons hot, Catch Corner Pub striking distance (touching distance actually) of the holiday Inn foods ok ,choice of beers,if we can get there say 7:30 onwards should have ample room for this time of year, probably too cold for running Bots round the car park,
but bring something to talk about , usually someone brings a Laptop with fights on!!!!and details of any new projects either at work or hobby, I think Im the only Roboteer that actually works with Robots for a living!!!!!! so I have always got tons going on! For those with GPS postcode is ST18 9AP minutes off the M6 junction
13 its an easy find, if coming North exit J13 and drive under the motorway its on your left ,should beable to spot the Holiday inn from the M6 , All welcome lets get the old MFL going again,
Der Boyz
I think Im the only Roboteer that actually works with Robots for a living!!!!!!..nope, i do :) 19th is good for me.
Are, But do you build the Cells and have 30 Fanuc units to play with:mrgreen: there you go see now we have a starter next Saturday,!!!!!!!
Der Boyz
I also have had a fair bit of experience with robots, when i worked for Wagon a few years ago. Good Times!
If i keep my fingers crossed i to could make it next week.

some teachers at my school are robots
some of u know it actually
st francis in aldridge
its turning into a prison! no joke all the technology its a joke
Industrial Robots ahhhhhh now thats real (Robot Wars) when they are good they are really good , but when they get bad they are really BAD,
Im part of the maintenance team for LDV now, training to be the main robotics guy. So i repair the robot arms when they fly out off control and smash the side of a van in, (theres a good few write offs down the side of the factory were the arms have gone crazy and decided to smash the dashboards into the side of the van rather then mounting them inside the cabs)
Thats sounds fine to me. Dave, bring 360 along :)maybe try and get the armour and spikes finished off before the meet?
i will be their saturday also.
Look forward to seeing you all tommorow night ,
all welcome,
Der Boyz
