Guy Unwin showed us various information he had collected from an inventors show in London, including an interesting electric generator driven by an electric motor which was powered by the output from the generator, thus providing an continuous free supply of electricity. This was presented by an Iranian man, although unfortunately there was no working demonstration.
Mike ( sorry I forget his full name ) told us about progress on his toilet odour extracting invention, for which he has a patent application for. John commented that his back mounted salt grit spreader would have come in handy the last couple of weeks, with all the ice we've been having, but apparently organisations are reluctant to take up the idea, as they consider themselves more liable to injury claim if someone slips on a gritted path, than on an un-gritted path. Marcus asked the group for advice on injection moulding companies regarding his invention of a tiling aid. Guy was able to provide the names of several companies in Malvern. Franics told us of his idea, which he probably said was not to be in the public domain yet. Mike Redman told us about his work on a product, but said that if I put it on the blog, I might be getting a visit from MI5. I told everyone about my recent programming efforts and showed them the mouse trap I have bought, which although is not my invention, is quite clever. Ian chaired the meeting and extracted £10 from most of us, as it's the beginning of the year again.
