[Blackpool] Next meeting - Communications Strategy

[MJ Hewitt]

Hi everyone -

The next meeting on Saturday 21st is going to be about how we promote
the LUG in 2012 and improve on what we already have.
A list of points to be discussed were drawn up at the LUG meeting on
the 7th.(see below)
Also under consideration is the possibility of starting up a
Hackerspace, initially in conjunction with the LUG.
