Hi Les -

I am forwarding this link to you and the LUG. Apparently, Neil from Defnet
Media knows you from a previous event.

Hi Mike,

No they never got in touch - we may now try and tie it into this Hub Space
event coming up later in the year
http://www.how-why-diy.defnetmedia.com/groups/open-source-city/forum/topic/open-source-city-hubspace/
where
we can recycle install Ubuntu and give away and make a bit of a big deal
about it. Maybe get Les and the boys down which is always fun.

So if you have any other Liverpool based charities who are willing to
donate let us know and we'll contact them direct.

Thanks
Neil
