space, and other adjacent activities.

Press buzzer H and someone will come and let you in after a wee wait.
Reply if you have any questions, if you want to share your plans, or if

Planning to be in at around 7pm, doing some 3d printing and web stuff, and
maybe some low intensity puttering and tidying. Reply and share your plans
if you like.
Cheers
Andy

Heya
I'll be along around 8pm. Will mostly be sketching CI/CD things, 3d
printer bits and/or PHP.
EMF Camp is a nice thought, on a wet December day, a sunny field in
Herefordshire

Hi,
I will be joining tonight, to try to install raspbian on a wee computer and
play with 3D landscape models.
It's going to be windy tonight. Exciting 😊. Let's just hope no one gets
injured.
Cheers,
Wouter
