Egham Jam

@prof_sween @winkleink There’s a great Virtual Jam run by @PrestonRJam if you need a fix.

Unfortunately our venue has advised that as of now no external visitors would be permitted in the building before August 2021 meaning for now the Egham Jam cannot continue.

@PrestonRJam I’d recommend if this Virtual Jam. It’s run really well.

@EghamJam Our next online #RJam is on Monday 5th October, theme: Light Night. We've had attendees from all over attend and feedback has been really encouraging. eventbrite.co.uk/e/rjam-light-n…

@Mr_MartinParker Brilliant. Looking good.

We've got a fantastic line-up for our next #RJam event on Monday evening 7-8.30pm (BST) on the theme of: "wearables". Tickets are still available, but registration closes 2 hours beforehand.

Preston Jam is a great Jam and they are still going with Virtual events. I attended one recently and really enjoyed it. A lovely way to spend a Monday evening.

I used Google to give a number between 1 and 8 to decide the winner. Pressing [Generate] 8 times the number selected by Google was:.... 2. So, the winner is: @Mr_MartinParker To claim your prize please follow and DM with your address and I will get the Book and Magazine to you.

No Egham Jam at the moment but @PrestonRJam are continuing with Virtual Jams and @PiWarsRobotics has a virtual viewing party on Saturday. So you can still get your Raspberry Pi goodness.

#PiWars 2020 has been postponed - full statement is here: piwars.org/2020-competiti… We are very sad to announce this but feel it is in the best interests of everybody and that it is inevitable.

@matt_sendorek Very good use time Give me more time to procrastinate

Noted - a shame, but gives me more time to perfect my maze-navigating algorithms(!)...

due to ongoing concerns relating to the spread of COVID-19 in the UK the Egham Jam on the 26th April is CANCELLED. Hope to see you all in October.

@martinohanlon @StaffordRJam Oh. Any exciting things in it. Could be fun to set a station up at the next Egham Jam to show people. What would be a good demo of RISC OS capability. I read a thing a while back that’s it’s now Open Source @LeoWhitesTweets

At the @StaffordRJam. Having a nice time. Just hearing about the new version of RISC OS.

Announcing the next Egham Jam is the 26th of April. Free to attend just register on Eventbrite. eghamjam25.eventbrite.co.uk/?aff=Twitter Take part on the BYOB (bring your own bot) challenges with our minimal maze and line following courses. Watch for announcements on Workshops.
