Have you seen the mapof where to buy the magazine? https://www.raspberrypi.org/magpi/how-to-get-magpi-40/

I had a look in the Tesco in Carmarthen this morning but couldn't see it. According to the map they should have had it.

I hadn't! There's a couple of places on my way home that might have it so I'll give them a go.

Good God!  Did you happen to take a look at all the options I have to choose from? :-&

Haha. So much choice for you :) How far are you away from that?

About 8 hours.  It's pretty close to our US headquarters which is in Troy, MI.  I wonder if my boss would run around there a see if they had one for me?

I checked the local WHSmith earlier. The entire magazine area was full, except for a single empty slot between other Raspberry Pi and Linux magazines...

Have you seen the price these thongs are going for on eBay? Craziness.

Give it a few weeks and stocks will be fine. Not managed to find one of the magazines so I'll just wait for stocks to replenish online.

Not that I need one.

Might actually be realistic to have it totally solar powered outside.

And the used ones go for even more. So I've heard.

Pi's are ok for very basic control functions, but sheesh! They're shit for any graphical function, really. I think Greyhair & I wrung the best out of them with this a couple of years ago: https://vimeo.com/76662378

And if anyone (including me) ever tells you the life of an artist is romantic, try lining 6 acres of shallow pool with white plastic.

If you were Damien Hirst, you your paid lackeys would have lined them with pave diamonds.

Ken, which thread did you post those links to Pi manuals/projects and things in?

I had a quick look when I saw the post and then promptly forgot about it.

What I do remember of it looked pretty damn useful.
