Automation and "automation" related things, including venues, pubbing, gigs and blog posts about automation. If you have anything to contribute regarding automation that I have not covered here, please chip in. Particularly if you have something to offer regarding local pubbing or other places, home brew, beer, or cider. Cheers.

This is my personal site, so if you search here for pubs or other venues it will only return automation pubs / venues I have been to or plan to go to. Fingers crossed it will return those anyway...If you are interested in a more general search please try automation on 'Folkestone Gerald, where I list national and even international venues...

As it turns out there are no pubbing / venues concerning automation anyway. Is there something I have missed? Please let me know!
