UK masters

if you are borrowing cubes from me, then please remind me in a PM. robert i totally forgot to post the 4x4 and only realised yesterday, it's a bit late now.

OMG i never realised how long printing scrambles took. for somebody with a paper aversion, i've just had a three hour nightmare!
 
Me and grace may not be able to afford to go to thorpe even with 241. we're both very poor at the moment. Its what seems to be happening if you're a student this summer. there's nothing in the way of jobs anywhere, so no way to earn my millions.
still we can talk IN GREAT DEPTH about it tomorrow. :)

What time are you getting back from london?

Is someone still borrowing a black type A from me? I've forgotten who it was, Robert perhaps? at any rate i'll still bring it, as well as a purple c4u cube, a white c4u cube and white puzl speedcube if anyone's interested.

Ah I thought you forgot. Don't worry! I bought a 4x4x4 magic cube from paperchase (which is rather smooth out of the box). Then I swapped the cores and the inner pieces, now my 4x4x4 is smooth and not too loose :D.

Variety of questions targetted at a variety of people:

Rowan: I never wrote down your mobile number. Care to PM me or something? Also, how much do I owe you for the room?
Pete: What car do you drive? I'm just trying to reassure my mum that it'll be big enough :p Also, how much would you like me to pay you petrol wise.
Charlie: How much will bowling be?

Also, how many are sleeping in our room(s)? Will I be getting a bed or will I need to bring a sleeping bag or something?
 
bowling.... meh tenner each or something. i have no idea. we'll pizza hut beforehand probably as the two are next to each other.
Ah good, thanks Charlie. My girls would be very tired and grumpy if we were eating after 10pm!!
Dawn (my partner) sprained her ankle yesterday afternoon and it looked touch and go if she'd be able to attend so I was in mild panic most of last night. This morning, however, it isn't so bad and we're all systems go again. \:D/
 
the bowling telephone number is now apparently "unreachable". excellent....

glad dawn is okay michael! sprained ankle could have thrown the weekend into panic.

quite a lot of people now registering the day before and asking why they can't have a t shirt, well, the reason is, it's a bit short notice. seriously, why would you register so late?!

yes michael that's the one!

thanks felix. let's hope it will be fun for everyone else, right now i'm hoping that i won't ruin everything. see just now i remembered something else. the special covering up cups!
 
You are even slower than me and you are not even competing in BLD :D

Yes, it is a sorry state of affairs: I am just plain slow at speedcubing -- I'm just here to make everybody else look better :D

Seriously though, my slowness gets me down sometimes but I just love collecting and solving the puzzles. What I'm hoping is that somebody will tell me "The Secret" and I'll magically become a speedcuber :)

That's not a sorry state of affairs. You are good! You are a better speedcuber than I am and another six billion people or so. And a more diversified puzzle solver to that. Have fun, I'll hold my thumbs!!
 
My little personal goals for this weekend are >

* have fun and don't take it too seriously.
* remember that no one cares about what times I get.
* don't pop
* try not to make a mistake on a speed solve
* get used to solving in front of people (I'm so nervous in front of people it's unbelievable)
* try my best to get a sucessful BLD solve no matter what the time
* meet joey (he's probably my favourite cuber)

and maybe a few others. But I'm looking forward to it, should be a laugh.
