Well done to all the winners (and the other entrants too!) Oh, and Andrew, you're too young to be thinking about cold beer.

Out of interest, when is the northern hemisphere Father's Day? We southerners have to wait until September for a fresh supply of socks and jocks.

And here I was thinking someone from the far flung Australian outback in north Queensland whose occupation was swatting flies and trying to keep the beer cool with only from 3 x AA batteries could have been the winner . . .

Woot!

I'd like to thank ...... The director … Mum … Helen of troy … Milkman … The guy who gave me a cigarette on the bus … etc …

Congratz Andrew.

Now I have to resist starting my posts with ‘As a competition winner…’

Buy Andrew's Kit from Gadget Gangster. Andrew needs to do more performance and reliability testing. Hiccup!

It was a fun contest and easy to enter. i'm surprised more forum members didn't enter.

The prototyping boards are pretty handy and the designer pack of pcbs is still available.
