I've also been in-touch with Jan Rowe and the STEMnet team in Exeter - who
didn't know about the event.

I'll be making my own way there and back.

I'll bring some bread as making bread is a STEMnet activity. (Yeast is
biology, therefore science and making a wood-fired oven is engineering)

Nice one that sounds really good, see you there

For what it is worth I have taken PM leave from work and I am intending to attend this event and bring my robots / pi projects....

I'm happy to demo this under ExeterLUG/DCGLUG banner or solo. Needless to say if I demo solo I will reference the LUG(s).

I can stop off at ExeterLUG HQ (Is this is the school or the Exwick Centre?) if necessary or carry on directly. Either way I am happy to take 3 or 4 passengers from Torbay area or between Torbay / Exeter  (Paul / Rob you interested?).

See you all there....

Tom.

Hi Tom

Sounds brilliant, 
I didnt mention your robots in the STEM post, because I didnt want to be presumptious, and having made mention of it in two previous posts I thought it would sound pushy.
If possible I would like to gang all the exeterLUG folks together, as I think it createx presence,and buzz.

See you Thursday
