    Peter et al.<br>
    <br>
    As per my discussion in regards to UMSA over at the Chatham Maritime
    campus I can certainly look into arranging an area of the University
    pub, Coopers, where we could meet up.<br>
    <br>
    As for a time, how about we go for the second week of every month,
    this should avoid issues and mean we don&#39;t get two weeks in a row
    between the Medway social and the KLUG meet. I&#39;m tempted to say a
    Saturday evening for the meets, though if people would prefer I can
    certainly arrange for a weeknight. Due to needing two weeks notice
    for bookings I can certainly get this arranged for, at the earliest,
    next month.<br>
    <br>
    On the wider side of socials and goings on, having discussed this
    briefly with others and the current members of the club I run there,
    we&#39;re considering branching out beyond our remit of tabletop games.
    We&#39;ve had various &quot;nerd&quot;/&quot;geek&quot; suggestions and one which I am
    considering taking forward is a linux or wider computer based
    evening. This is still very much in the early stages, and I do not
    want to tread on the wider KLUG toes, however due to having run one
    for ~4 years and having the paperwork sorted, this is not an issue
    to be arranged.<br>
    <br>
    As has been pointed out to me, the Uni. of Greenwich and Uni. of
    Kent both offer computer related courses at the University and it
    could introduce a swathe of new blood into the KLUG community at
    large. As it seems fitting, I would just like to reiterate I am
    willing to start organising this as soon as possible - but the more
    input the better, and I would like to thank those that have already
    shown an interest and have been in contact with me so far.<br>
    <br>
    So:<br>
    Thoughts on a pub meet, weekend or weekday evening? Over at the
    campus pub?<br>
    Additionally interest in either a linux-based or wider computer
    &quot;club&quot; that can be run at the Chatham Maritime campus?<br>
    <br>
    If you would like to discuss this with me further outside of e-mail,
    feel free to grab me on KLUGs IRC channel, or I am on Skype if you&#39;d
    prefer a more audible conversation - just drop me an e-mail for the
    username.<br><font color="#888888">
