For the next few days, myself and Tim Richardson will be otherwise engaged with the Raspberry Pi Big Birthday Weekend in Cambridge. Please accept my apologies for the lack of blog posts this weekend – I just won’t have any time to update the site. I’ll be back in action again on Monday (if I can wake up!) with as much Pi news and projects as I can find. I’ll also be sharing some of my experiences and thoughts about the Big Birthday Weekend from an organiser’s perspective.

For those of you who are coming to the Big Birthday Weekend, please say Hello to myself and Tim. We’ll be wearing purple Raspberry Pi t-shirts (the ones with the logos on) and we’ll likely be carrying clipboards and wearing Marshal badges!

Can I just take this opportunity to say thanks to the Raspberry Pi Community who have been so generous offering their time to help us at the Weekend, giving talks, taking part in panels, helping in workshops, doing Show-and-Tell, taking part in the Marketplace and giving up some of their Weekend to be Marshals. Without you, we just wouldn’t have an event.

Thank you to Tim, as always. And a huuuuuge thank you and Big Hug (c) to Lisa Mather who has been organising the evening party – we couldn’t have done it without you!.
