The time is near.....

Hi All,

6 days until we jet off to Rotterdam and the reality of the competition is starting to hit home.

I don't think anyone involved with us guys would believe a year ago, we would be going to represent the country in computing and some still don't.

We have always been a very determined group of individuals and I think we are currently in the clutch just about to hit top gear.

Mike has joined this team with very little time to prepare and has fitted in so well, I’m amazed to think we coped without him little more than a month ago.

Hugo is now starting to achieve the potential we all thought he had. He is able to take an idea and rung with it and showing the determination needed to break through the “I’m good at what I do”, to “I’m fantastic and no one can beat me” level of technical excellence.

Keith is a rock. If you ever asked him to do a job, he would do it and keep with it until it’s done to his level, which I may add is higher then what most people can think of. He is practising everyday at the college and such a high work rate, yet i know he can do even more.

At this point a special thank you to Kevin as his technical training is helping Keith and Hugo to be far above the level needed for the competition.

I think that is it for now

All the best

Toby H
