One person has contacted us via the EMF car sharing page and asked for a lift to Stockport or Manchester on Monday. Tim has replied indicating that we have space but we would want to limit the length of any detour. She will probably take the train instead.

Wanted:
If you think you'd like to organise a meal, add your name below and your suggested meal. Helpers needed too, since there will potentially be 12 people to feed!
Three evening meals (Friday, Saturday and Sunday), possibly also three breakfasts (Saturday, Sunday, and Monday). I am guessing lunches will be more ad-hoc. [Since we will also have a BBQ, we don't need to cover all possible meal times. –Tim]

Fuel, food and utensil requirements also needed, may need reviewing once suggestions are in. The aim is to know what to buy / bring. Add these to the “shopping” and “bringing” lists. Cost of shopping to be shared.
Individual dietary restrictions / preferences, which might the affect choice of meals:
We will stop at a supermarket on the way to EMF. Group shopping is slow and tedious, so we will do a click-and-collect shop. List your requests here:
There is a Tesco on the EMF-recommended route, at Kingston MK10 0AH.
Using grid and/or POV http://www.wayneandlayne.com/projects/blinky-smt/ Really Useful box with 10 Soldering Irons would require transport. Sell kits for a bit over cost price (suggest ~£12 for Grid, £10 for POV) Take extra kits for sale.
2 or 3 helpers to run a 2 hour workshop.
Volunteers
Depart: Friday morning to arrive late afternoon.
Return: Monday morning to arrive evening.
Current plan:
17-seat minibus with rear three seats removed for luggage space. Driven by Sean with Tim as backup.
Sean has booked and paid for the minibus. Total cost will be £700-800 so the per-person cost should be under £80. Everyone should pay Sean £80 (see your email for the bank details) and he will refund the excess when the final numbers are known.
