After a huge delay we are looking at Re-igniting Manchester Raspberry Jam @mcrraspjam in a new home at MMU. Please reach-out if you are interested and also give us your new favourite connector which may not be X. FYI it is likely to be November. Cheers - Pete

For those who may be vaguely interested in my attempt to get #PiForce1 past 200K miles, I regret to announce that a catastrophic engine failure occurred at 186K Revs dropped from 3K to zero in 1.5 sec 🤔. Fortunately with some rapid clutch work managed to coast into a lay-by 😳
Some peoples attitude to work is perfectly exemplified here.... sad and somewhat depressing. "Extra mile mate - nah not even a foot"
What happened to - "no problem it will only take a minute or two and all the gear is here!"

CamJammers! Were you at the original #PiWars at the Institute of Astronomy in December 2014? Do you have any photos in your archive? We'd love to see them! :-)
Hi all. Bit of a #PiWars research task has arisen. Has anyone got any photos of the original, 2014 competition? Our archive appears to be a bit empty! Please let us know either on here, or through the website! :-)
Great to be @tnmoc today record an oral history of DEC in the UK. The PDP-8 has a special place in my personal history & along with Graham crystalised my future career direction & my passion for educational outreach leading to @RaspberryPi_org. Thanks for your hospitality. 👍
Dave - it was memorable and set the scene for many more near space adventures. It also proved that Pi could be a route to discussions about so many spheres of science and technology, especially exploding ones! (Balloons that is😳)

Wish I had more time - I had loads of slides on your stratospheric adventures - great to see you there!

Looking forward to giving the Keynote at our 3rd birthday party hosted by Cambridge Raspberry Jam. For some reason I seem to be 12 years older 🤔😳
Somewhat more than 12 years in the making we have gone from 6 founders, with just an idea to .... well come and find out! 👍🎉🎉🎉
Only 13 days to the #CamJam Raspberry Pi Birthday.

Great to be at #FurbyFest @OfficialUoM @csmcr celebrating the engineering achievements of @FurberSteve and his remarkable influence on computer science and electronic engineering. Without Steve the foundations on which @Raspberry_Pi was built would simply not exist. Bravo 👏👏👏
