Gifts Unbagging

It was great to receive a parcel this afternoon from Element14, which I think is for being Influencer of the Year 2019, or maybe E14 is just being nice to me. A nice XXL T shirt as well as an Element14 Breadboard module (some assembly required. Just a little problem with the breadboard in that two of the rubber feet had lost their stickiness so I had to resort to using glue - seems to have worked. I might now try and add a small voltmeter and rechargeablel battery to make a self-contained mobile development module. On first inspection I haven't been able to find any suitable voltmeters so I might have to create something myself.

    I think that parcel was for scoring 100% in the MEMS Sensor Technology Quiz. I received similar today (I ended up gaining two sticky feet though, thanks to a burst radiator valve in the office soaking…

    Clem, I was originally from a very strange part of the UK, which even many people who live in the UK do not know exists. Many people know of the North of England where it is cold, wet and windy with very…

    I have a package on the way which I assume will be the same. Anyone who's into racing will know Castle Donnington. I specifically remember a very hairy moment on a Yamaha YZF750 when I didn't realise that…

    Mine arrived today - thanks danzima and E14! I won't post any pictures as it's exactly the same as yours.

    Fred,

     

    I didn't notice where mine came from. However, my Nephew works at that site so it could have been touched by him! Amazing. It's a small world.

    "...More listening to the children screaming and hoping it would go quiet soon so I could go back to sleep..."

    I think you could probably say the same about what was coming through the radio on the Saturday morning of the road show... "turn that damn radio off... I'm trying to sleep here..."  image

    I also noticed that my Farnell order which arrived today started its journey from Castle Donnington. I assume this is a UPS hub. What a busy little village!

    Dave,

     

    I didn't know that they did these shows. I had left home by then and not doing much listening to Radio 1. More listening to the children screaming and hoping it would go quiet soon so I could go back to sleep.
