Yesterday, Saturday 7th Jan, Ron rounded-up the troops once again, this time at the Robots Exhibition at the newly opened Clotworthy House (Oriel Gallery) in Antrim Castle Gardens. A little advertised, low-key exhibition, with little reason given for its existence beyond being the “first exhibition in the brand new light-filled Oriel Gallery” and draw people to the café and gift shop.

The grounds look good, though far from complete, the café has good food (free coffee refills, which I abused) and great service, and accommodated us as we stuck around to chat.

Mixed in with the Robocop, R2D2 and the head of C-3PO are a number of obscure robots which may well be part of a private toy collection, either way, it’s a fun day out, and it was great to meet some lovely new and old friends: Ron, Sarah, Paul, Skip, Cat, Lexi, Paul, Kay, Bill, Mark and Steve.

The exhibition runs until 12th Jan.
