<div>Hi everyone</div><div><br></div><div>Wow, what a fantastic LUG meeting we had this month; we had our best turn-out ever! First and foremost, I would like to welcome new LUG members Tom, Graham and Miles. Thank you for coming along; I hope you all enjoyed yourselves :) We were also joined by Hull LUG regulars Dave, Jon, Steve & Damian, as well as Lincoln LUG regulars Philip, Alistair, Jo and me. Jo even brought along her kids to join in the LUG fun.</div>
<div><br></div><div>This month our LUG venue moved to the Lincoln Bowl in Washingborough, and we took over the party room rather than sharing the lounge with 60+ screaming kids! Being in the party room gave the meeting a different feel; more upbeat and interactive due to the seating arrangement maybe, and feedback from the members who attended was that they preferred it! I'll make sure that I book the party room for next month.</div>
<div><br></div><div>New LUG members always bring a new perspective and topics of conversation, and Tom, Graham and Miles certainly did that. We discovered we had 2 Fedora users in our midst, Graham re-invigorated Philip's enthusiasm for xmonad, Miles showed off his Open Arena fragging skills (much to the kids delight) and Tom shared his thoughts on web security and told us a bit about OWASP meetings in Leeds that he had attended. </div>
<div><br>
</div><div>Our next meeting will be on Weds 15th August starting at 7pm in Lincoln Bowl, Washingborough and hopefully we can continue to build on the success of this month's meeting. Did I say how good this month's meeting was? Thanks to everyone who came along and particpated; hopefully see some or all of you next month.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Cheers</div><div><br></div><div>Becky</div>
