[57north-discuss] TechFest 2016

[Robert Gauld]

I could probably be available during the week (I like to take a week worth
of not being at work type holiday at that time of year anyway.
However I wouldn't want to do it alone, any other volunteers?
I'm not to sure what to suggest activity wise other than maybe making a
small voltaic pile to light a small light bulb or maybe LED throwers. Any
other ideas?
Maybe looking back at my copy of ace will prompt so more thoughts.
