Warn out from playing Goalball!
Spent the day to day helping out a activity day for visually impaired secondary school students at the uni.
This day was a really eye opener to how these kids cope with every day life, as well as there hobbies. For a good part of that day, I spent helping and chatting to a 16 year old boy who loves his computer programming, now programming is hard at the best of times, but this kid was completely blind and he could have given me a run for my money with programming skills!
The afternoon was spent with the kids and also the UKs Paralympics coach for Goalball, teaching us how to play the sport.
So quite warn out really.

Robotic Car WORKING!!!
Ok, so its a bit of a mess or wires, but its working! The initial next steps are to tidy the wires up so that are all on the car and to replace the mains powers supply with another 9V battery. At that stage the car will be drivable from the computer with only the USB lead. From there, this can be replaced with Bluetooth, so that it is wireless.

Just been doing a bit of experimenting with some 3D and created a cartoon version of me, which has then been animated with lip syncing.
Take a look:
