Upcoming
Next London Raspberry Jam is on the 31st of January. See people's raspberry pi based projects and chat to interesting people. Last one featured a raspberry pi controlled bigtrack with a robot arm grafted on top, RISCOS, the techno tunnel. Beginners can usually find someone to help load a memory card with an OS etc. There are a few big TV's bolted to the walls that can be used as HDMI displays with about 15 minutes of messing about with the remote control but bringing a monitor is handy if you want to use one all evening. Registration requested but they will usually let a few extra people in. Link below.
