We'll be there for definite.
The beetle should be ready by then too, just a weight issue really eveything else is going to plan :D
The new Ant Clank is looking very good, I`m planning a new Ant Ratchet too. A heavy is now looking a strong possibility.

'Limpet Resurrection' is the current favoured name, you heard it here first 8)
Ant Clank 3 now has a bec fitted for the flipper servos and is very nearly complete, expect Ant Ratchet 3 at the event now as well.

How about "Limpet Biscuit" or "Limpet Öpik"?

the bread was to encourage Sgt Bash rather than Sir Killalot to attack us, we also had loads of kitchen foil from the canteen wrapped around all the innards to shield from the flames. However the ploy failed and Killalot got us anyway. TV history :) .
Sorry to hijack the AWS44 thread but at least its bumping it to the top :)

Looking forward to 44. got some wicked ideas for the R&C ants which I havn`t revealed yet.
