  4. Hi folks,

    Just a quick reminder that August's #Bletchley & #MK #MathsJam is:

    - *tomorrow*: Tuesday 22nd!
    - at Brewhouse and Kitchen in Central Milton Keynes (close to the theatre, *not* to be mixed up with the Midsummer Tap which is very close and has "pub and kitchen" on the sign!).
    - From 7pm

    Bringing yourself is an absolute must, and any #mathematical #ideas, #conundrums, #puzzles, #tidbits, #games, #books, #toys or #tales are encouraged but completely optional.

    If you're able to let me know if you're intending to come I'd appreciate it, otherwise just turn up. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

    See you there,

    Tom
