Potentially interested...

I'll reset the used one to factory and box it all back up, and then bring both. Not a clue what to sell either of them for of course, especially now that they're no longer The Hot Shit.

The used one has the Elite Head Strap fitted, the sealed one is just the normal head strap.

Ace... I'll definitely have a look. I know nothing about VR gaming so you're going to have to fill me in.

We made a note to bring cocktail making equipment last year, so I've already chucked ours in a box.

I don't suppose anyone happens to have a copy of Eats, shoots and leaves lying around that I could borrow for the weekend?

Well, I haven't got my Pi sorted out but if you would like me to bring it, I'll see if I can dig it out. If I remember rightly, some of the buttons were playing up on one of my sticks but let me have a look see.

My Pi is also still out of action, so there's probably no point :(

Have a wonderful time, all! I do miss you guys and your squishable faces :’(

@goddess Jasmine I may have an old copy of Eat, Shoots & Leaves in the bookcase. I’m in the middle of sorting the bookcases out as we are decorating. Would you like me to check to see if I still have it? I can post it along to you if you’d like it (or did you need it specifically for this weekend?)

@Davpaz I've got my Pi set up with a couple of control pads instead of the sticks. It all works so I'll bring that along in case anyone wants a go on something arcadey.

A reminder to people to check the board game spreadsheet and put their names next to anything they'd like to play so people bring them!
