The slushie machine is fixed, cleaned and is in the action room ready for use.

All hail Dorkbot.

Grats appreciated but we would like some slushies too! Is it going to be put to use sometime soon?

Martin - pass it on to the Dorkbot cru. It's functioning. When there's time to make stuff and the machine has been cleaned and ready to go.

They're £2.50 (I think that's what Bryony charges), £1.25 for vollies and 75p for dorkbot people who made it happen. I reckon.

Today's slushi smoothies (shloozies) are made with freshly pureeeeed pineapple, kiwi, fresh mint plus apple and orange juice plus soy milk plus a bit of vanilla.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....

That sucks. Perhaps if anyone else is interested, we can dig it out and try and get it working again.

the slushie machine has a dark secret past.

I agreed with Nix to move the machine to another residence but haven't got round to it yet - let me know if there are plans to use it and i will refrain from relocating it for now...

I know of the darkness.

We DID try to make it work in the kitchen. I would have loved nothing more than to maintain it's usage. The sad fact of the matter is Night Managers didn't clean it properly, if at all, and it was a pain to do it in the morning, especially if other stuff was left undone too.

It's a shame, another thing falls foul of volunteer negligence/Forest's inability to train NMs properly (?).

I, certainly, very much appreciated the hard work DorkBot put in to making this happen in the first place.
