I have a knitting machine in my flat that Mike gave me a few years ago that has gotten very little use since then because of the time and space needed to set it up. I would like to take it into the space and leave it set up in the hopes that I (and possibly other people) can make more use of it there.
I've measured the spare space between sewing radio and media desks, printer and oval table and if we shuffle them all right a bit and condense them together can create ~2m of space to left of sewing desk and could put the knitting machine there. Knitting machine is pretty shallow so would improve access to the shelves there too and could make more use of them than as dumping ground.
If no one has any objections to this plan I will put it into action towards the end of this week (unless I get sidetracked with other things and then it'll be later...).

I go the extra mile.
Usually because I missed the turning I was supposed to take.
hello there,
It's Tuesday, so we will have our weekly open night..again!
If you've not heard of us, 57North get up to a range of activities on
Tuesday nights in our shared workspace, including (but not limited to)
social contact, programming, manufacturing weird things, consuming sugary
treats and the odd can of alcoholic beverage. Typically we kick off at 1930.
We're located at:
Suite H
Kettock Lodge
Innovation Park
Campus Two
Bridge of Don
Aberdeen AB22 8GU
Instructions for getting in are here:
https://www.57north.org.uk/open-evenings .Hit the buzzer (Suite H) and
someone shall come and rescue you from downstairs after a brief wait.
There's plenty parking, but if you don't have transport get in touch either
here or IRC and someone may be able to help you out! The number 1 bus comes
nearby
too.
If you're new, I'd suggest you bring a laptop, and perhaps a project you
want to work on.
If you're not new, shoot a reply to the list and tell us what you'll be up
to, and maybe consider bringing a friend. Please mention a time if you'll
be in before me!
I shall be in from about 730pm, recovering from about a shitload of work
meetings today and maybe working on a new version of my website.
Drop an email to tell us when you'll be in and what excitement you're
getting up to?
Cheerio,

Hi
Looking at the Aurora forecast...
https://aurorawatch.lancs.ac.uk/
...and the weather...
https://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2657832
...it looks like this afternoon and evening might be good for Aurora
spotting, perhaps between 17:00 and 18:00. With sunset being 16:13,
clear skies between 16:00 and 18:00 and peak Aurora
between 17:00 and 18:00, maybe we'll be in luck.
As someone who's probably* never seen the northern lights, any
suggestions on where to go near Aberdeen, or tips? Also, for the sake
of kids' expectation management, if it looks like it does in photos,
to the naked eye?
Cheers
Andy
*unsure about some psychedelic experiences up blackford hill in
Edinburgh in the 90s :)
