==Update on the ShrimpingIt workshop==
==Update on the ShrimpingIt workshop==


After discussing with various people and trustees, we decided that it is safer to reschedule the 11th April workshop as it is likely as that date that the quiet room will be used to store crates and stuff to prep with the move to the new hackspace on the 13th.
Workshop rescheduled to 9th May 7PM due to Hackspace moving to a new space.
Michael indicated he could run the workshop on the 9th May, this still needs to be confirmed.
