Maker Faire UK 2011 is on the 12th and 13th of March 2011 in Newcastle.

We'll be heading up on the Friday night and going on a Hackspace pub crawl with all the other Hackspaces.

JimM - Saying in the Swallow Hotel (since it had parking)
Jonty
Russ
~~Bob/b3cft~~ Cannot make it :'(
Oni
Elliot
SamLR
Solexious While I can't drive I would love to be on the team taking the hack van up
Nigle Staying at the Clifton House Hotel, room in car for gear/people
Mark
Spike - Staying in Jurys Inn which claims to be "2 mins walk from central station" but does not have private parking :-(.

We will be running the hack area, where everyone can sit and tinker/hack. We shall have to take tools & equipment for people to use.

Some members have applied to individually present:

The Battenberg (An autonomous airship) - Russ/Jonty
A steam-powered turing machine - JimM (sadly, unlikely to be actually steam-powered unless the venue permits it)

Train is the quickest way, from King's Cross straight to Newcastle. Some of us may be bringing more equipment, so may need to hire a van or car.

JimM will likely be hiring an estate car, but setting off from Cambridge rather than London.
Spike will be driving up from Weybridge in Surrey. I'll probably be picking up Rain Ashford (@rainycat) (and her dress-maker's dummy, Delia) from Camdenish/
