Actually, I am keen to run an elluminate workshop on some of this game programming stuff .. talked very briefly with Tony about it at the VItta conf. Phil Brown got me thinking bout how I can use SCREENR. This week I have some moderator training courses to attend, lets see what pans out. Nice to catch up with you face to face again over a cuppa coffee Kent :-)<br>

Bandwagon time again!!<br>
<br>
Sorry Ro, mate...but..<br>
<br>
Once again..this is hardly a bonus for us country folk!!<br>
<br>
And yep...I still have a problem with the price!<br>
<br>
"offered his time...." mate, if I was to 'offer my time"...the price would be a damn site less!!!<br>
<br>
Given that Gamemaker has so much on-line help..makes ya wonder.<br>
<br>
To those who dont like my grumps...you know where the delete key is! Also, it seems like I am the only one not in Melbourne who seems to kick up when I feel let down. It'd be nice to know others actually aren't just riding my train and could speak up too!!<br>

My friend Tony is running a Gamemaker PD in December, and I notice he volunteered to help out with something similar with the e-Train last month. If anybody is interested in some training he will be running a workshop on 11 Dec 2009. Details and hyperlink below. Great way to link maths, science and IT :-)<br>
