Hope you all enjoyed your long bank holiday weekend? It wasn't a total wash out, the sun is out although setting while I type this. Plus we have some exciting news...
We are partnering with GDG (Google Developers Group) Dublin to run a Raspberry Pi Workshop hosted at Google Dublin on Saturday 16th August. You can RSVP below.
We are open to people hosting local chapters in their area, so do get in touch if you are interested.
