It looks like I won't be able to make it either, the rota at the pub keeps changing as it looms like were having new management, this puts my on a 12-5 shift.

Really want to do serco tutorials as they will be really useful to me with the rc models, could there be ankther servo tutorial for thoes that can't make it Saturday?

Oh, is anyone going to be there wednesday or thursday evening from about 6pm?

I've just realised I can't make it on Saturday - I'm heading west for my
father's birthday - Gutted!
