<div><br></div><div>Mark: Would be great if you could make it. Me and Louise will definitely be going on the 18th (possibly others I know if they're free). If you'd like a reminder a couple of days before, I might set up an automated e-mail to go out to the mailing list to remind people. I'm sure Damian might do the same. :)<br>
<br>Simon: Guessing you don't live in Cumbria at the moment. Memory fails me, but I remember some people saying they no longer did... I'm sure you could always make at least one every couple of months or so if your interested... plus you could always try and get a car pool going to, so that its not that much of a drag the way up/down... I almost did a car pool to go down to oggcamp unconferenced, but the guy near Birmingham had to pull out because he fell ill. In hind sight, I should really have asked if anyone on CLUG wanted to go too, but oh well. Plus I'm sure if you asked nicely, someone might put you up if needed. :)</div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi Andrew,<div><br></div><div>I did the same initially before I started writing an e-mail to the group. However when I first signed up to the mailing list, barely anyone was saying anything... so I took the plunge and wrote an introduction letter, and things sort of started rolling again. Which was good.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Sometimes its hard to get out of Windows as far as day jobs are concerned, its just how most business work, but its good to see another fellow Linux enthusiast in the area.</div><div><br></div><div>To be honest, I wouldn't call myself an expert at Linux either, over the last year I've only just started using Linux exclusively on my home systems - I do have Windows in dual-boot, however I haven't actually logged into it for over 8 months now (and kinda dreading to see what would happen if I do!). Thing I've found with Linux so far is, the more you start to scratch through layers... you start to get more excited about what else it can offer you.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I don't think anyone can ever be a full expert on it, because the more power you find you have ... the more you feel like you knew nothing, and want to learn more! I do write my mini-adventures I have with Linux on my blog whenever I can (feel free to have a look!). Mainly because it might help others, and also because its like a mini-journal/backlog of things I've done that I can later refer to if I ever forget anything. At the moment I've been learning to do bash scripts, and so far the more I learn with that, the more my life becomes easier to do repetitive tasks! Since I can just make a script to do the work for me. The last script I did was basically to give me different profiles in Google Chrome, since it doesn't have one by default like Firefox - but I prefer using Chrome.<br>
<br>Well like I mentioned in my previous e-mail, I don't mind doing some workshops if people are interested. If there's anything you'd like to learn, just let me know and we'll see what we can come up with for the next meet. Likewise, if there's anything you have problems with too... I'm sure we could arrange something to try and go through them to make life better/easier.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Yes, as far as I'm aware, you are correct... the next meet is on the 18th. Also, the lodge is open to all of us who are on the CLUG mailing list on the days the meets are running, so you don't need anything special to come in and join us - I'm sure Damian can confirm this (since he's the one who's organised this space for us).<br>
<br>Anyways, I'll wrap this up... Nice to meet you Andrew, and hope to see you at the next meet. :)</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>-- <br><div dir="ltr"><div>Regards,<div>Haz</div><div><br></div><div>

Hi<br><br>I've been following the messages from the group for a month or so now but not yet been able to make a meeting (or get around to introducing myself)! However, going forward I should be able to make them.<br>
<br>
I'm a Windows SysAdmin by day and I've been using Linux on and off for a couple of years at home but recently starting using it a lot more, hence me joining the CLUG mailing list. Like Damian, I feel I'm still a noob where Linux is concerned and only scratching the surface with it so I would definitely be interested in any workshops etc.<br>
<br>Am I right in thinking the next meeting is 18th Sept at the Lodge in Carlisle? (Assuming of course you're open to accepting new members!)<br><br>Cheers<br><font color="#888888"><br>Andrew<br>
