pSTOIC annual booze up / dinner - 13th January 2008
The annual Hoop & Toy / Rembrandt alumni get together. This year we were all treated to a video presentation of the latest goings on in the world of the Flea Circus. Our thanks to Alan and Rex for providing the viewing hardware and their best efforts at synchronised playback. As always, the most complicated part of the event was payment.
Rob and Laura's almost annual BBQ - June 2008
This year at its new location of New Milton. We somehow managed to miss the one in Spain. Lots of bodging was evident, especially in the garden. JD even managed a brief visit.
pSTOIC annual booze up / dinner - 10th January 2009
The annual Hoop & Toy / Rembrandt alumni get together. The theme this year, "Bring something amazing". First off was Alan with his excellent "Charlotte and family" cat calendars. Secondly was a bright green squishy mesh ball provided by Tim. Andy then revealed his submission. We were first supplied with a set of A5 sized Fresnel lenses. Then, hidden inside some antique looking books was to be found a miniature Victorian styled display "tube". Mounted in the case was a fully crafted, tiny, brass flea chariot. At the end of the meal, we were not disappointed with the annual bodge with paying the bill.
pSTOIC annual booze up / dinner - 16th January 2010
The annual Hoop & Toy / Rembrandt alumni get together. Following the success of last year's themed event, Rex chose to stick with a winning formula and go with a "Bring something interesting" theme. Andy presented an aluminium monolith (formally Alan's hard drives). Alan present a quite unusual grip tool. Rex passed around a very weird looking item and asked for guesses as to what it was (raw latex from a tree). Rob showed some great photos of the Colossus computer at Bletchley. Doug excelled himself with both a hydrogen powered car (unfortunately there were some teething problems getting it to start) and two excellent LED arrays. Rex sorted the bill out with us all having our own receipt. Also check out Doug's demonstration on the YouTube video.
