I've also upgraded the http://www.ukcubemasters.com/ website today and applied a new theme (moving away from the old Garland theme which is nice but way too mainstream). I'll be improving the look of the site over the next week or so.

My payment will be coming in soon
Also can someone plz lend me a 4x4 to use, I really don't want to be stuck using Coghill's Rubik's (shudders)
 
Hello everyone,
I have kindly been offered a position at the bristol open in march to sell some cubes at the event.
However, i have no way of getting there / back and have nowhere to stay.

So if anybody is going from / doesn't mind going through manchester and has a spare seat in their car please could you PM me or post a message here so i can hopefully get to the open.

Also if anyone has a place to sleep, even a tent or a floor near the venue could you do the same please as a hostel isn't viable when carrying tonnes of cubes around.

PS i am willing to contribute towards petrol costs to and from the event.

Thanks,
Andy

Yeah you can use one of mine, no problem... just maybe remind me nearer the time to bring you an extra one. Having said that, I actually didn't remember to bring my own cubes last time and had to get Olivér to run back to my flat to get them for me in the middle of the day :p

Andrew - I added something to the website (Michael will be proud of me for doing weird things with slashes and brackets to bold the heading ;)) about you selling cubes on the day. Just check what I wrote was okay or if you'd like me to add anything.

It sounds great, but remember i have to be able to get there and back and find a place to stay for less money than i will make :3 before i can fully commit, however i will try my best.

Does anyone attending the comp have a genuine Mefferts megaminx they would like to sell or trade?

EDIT: I will be making a CubeSmith order this week - let me know if you want items adding.

I have a stickered one? Only a couple of solves on it, so needs working in etc. I'll just trade for stickers if your doing a cubesmith order. I'm running low on 4x4 stocks.

I'll be paying soon, Charlie. I've just been paid :)

Anyway, had anyone here got any old type A cubies (unused) and/or a c4y type core, centres, screws and springs? I'd like a decent cube again before the comp :)
 
If anybody wants to buy a black or white 7x7 I might be selling if you make me a reasonable offer. White has bright stickers and black has original stickers with a black face, not a white one. (Don't panic Joey, the one we spent ages restickering is the one I am keeping :P)
 
The black one is one of the first black 7x7s to ever be sold :D

and PHEW, I put my heart and soul into restickering that, looking forward to restickering the 6x6!

I might actually bring a few 3x3s to sell.. MAYBE, but will post here later if I decide.

is it new or used?anyway i can pay 15 pounds for one in good condition:)

(actually i don't get it why it's even more expensive to buy it in Europe than in China. A V7 costs only about 20 pounds in c4u local shop in Shanghai)
 
Hey everyone,
I have finally found transport down to bristol. All i need to sort now is somewhere to stay, so if a few people fancy doing a room share in one of the hotels near to the venue please give me a PM.
Also people who have already sorted out accomodation where are you staying as i don't fancy being the only cuber in the hotel i choose to stay in!

Thanks,
Andy

EDIT: By the sound of things, the future inn in bristol will work out at £50 a room and the rooms can be shared by 2 people (maybe 3 if we can cheekily get another in.
This works out at £25 or £16.60 which is as cheap or nearly as cheap as the hostel many are staying at, and it is closer and more private.
and if a few of us get a room we may be able to negotiate prices.

The plans have changed, we will be staying in the YHA hostel which is £16.50 a night PP including breakfast, it has self serve kitchens so you can bring your own food to keep eating cheaper (Pot noodles FTW).
So far there are 3 of us. Personally i am going to get there friday evening, and will be leaving on the Sunday afternoon.
If any other cubers have arranged to stop at the YHA hostel post here as you can get big discounts for 10+ people and me being nosey wants to know who will be there.
 
LIFT NEEDED!

If Pete (cookingfat) can't give me a lift could I please hitch a ride from someone going via Sheffield/Manchester with a spare spot in their car. I'd be willing to stump up any petrol costs.

If all goes as planned, Tomarse and I will be there too. Will let you know.
 
if we can get a definitive list i dont mind organising a group booking to save us some ££££ plus then we may have the whole hostel to ourselves which includes a games room kitchen a lounge and a tv lounge plus all our rooms.
 
I will edit this post with those who PM me telling me they're in.
