Hi chaps and chapesses,

I've come to realise that I can't deliver on the reprap prints despite my
best efforts - our makerbot has moved down to London and I was assured that
the parts would be sent up once printed, but I think it's clear this isn't
going to happen. i wish I could say why, but I've just been let down I'm
afraid. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience, can Blair cover these prints?
I'm going off the parts list on the website but I guess you may well be way
ahead of me anyway!

I fully intend to be in attendance on the 9th, for the first time!
Roy
