Details
-------
A hectic 2012 is nearing its end and Manchester Free Software would
like to invite any and all to join us in reflection and celebration,
with seasonal cheer and high jinks at a party this coming Tuesday.
This is a Madlab event open to all groups who use the space and any
friends of Madlab. We at Manchester Free Software have decided to take
part and hold our Christmas party as part of the event.

There will be a raffle and Madlab are collecting donations/prizes.  If
you can contribute, please contact <office at madlab.org.uk>.

According to Madlab, "there will be nibbles, drinks, a raffle and the
now infamous dance-off!" :-)


Location
--------

The party will take place from 6pm, slightly earlier than our usual
time, at Madlab on Edge Street in the Northern Quarter. "(Between
Thomas St and the Craft Centre, opposite A Bar Called Common)".


Transport
---------
Parking: Around the venue there are parking meter bays that become
zero cost after 8pm on Tuesday so you will have to pay up until then
and the maximum stay is 2 hours BUT MAKE SURE YOU VERIFY THIS.  There
are paid parking lots around the venue, the light blue P in this
