The North West Computer Museum is located just outside Manchester city centre. This is the first time we've used this venue but it seems ideal. We'll be given a room to set up our stuff and they are happy to stay open later than usual. There is a cafe within the Leigh Spinners Mill building but we can also arrange catering with the venue.

[edwithmj]

Count me in. I'll bring an SMS, everdrive and a couple of controllers. Won't be able to lug a TV though!

[8bitboyuk]

Well done again for organising Ian (and James no doubt). 10th August works well for me. See you there. Most of my stuff is in storage now but still have a small TV and Mega SG I can bring most likely.

Anybody up for a Master System Challenge again?

[Peder Johnsen]

Unless anything unforeseen happens I'll be there

[armixer24]

Ah, this year, I won't be able to come as I will be out of the country at that date. That's a shame!

You guys enjoy the meetup! That location was really cool last year, good to see it be the meetup point again!

[rupert]

Please add me to the list. Likely my son and Dad will come along too.

I’ll bring a Mega SG, Everdrive and TV

[flatapex]

Same as Peder, as long as nothing unexpected happens I’ll be around

[Sinistral]

I'll be there mate. Will bring screen and SMS / everdrive.

And this time i'll test the pads work

[andrewsccll]

Hi, I intend to attend too!
Should be a fun day!
👍

[clintymcfly]

I will be coming to give you nerds a monkey scrub

[retrokevretro]

Sorry for the late reply but I've been waiting on a date for the family summer holiday. Luckily it's a few days after the scheduled meet so I'll be there (Kaleb too probably). I'll likely be bringing a lot of stuff for Peder so won't have room in my little car for any equipment but Peder's haul contains an sms1 which I'm sure he won't mind using.

[Maxim]

Crikey, I’ve not been paying attention. Not sure if I’ll be able to make it as the missus is planning to go on holiday… so I’ll confirm closer to the time.

[Maxim]

It looks like I’m in. Any requests for a competition hack?

[8bitboyuk]

Looking forward to meeting you again Maxim buddy
