About a year ago someone sent an alleged transcript from a Have I Got News for you show making allegations about Jimmy Savile. That may have been fake, but maybe the author knew something we didn't. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-19788721 Very interesting. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Gathering at the Manchester Hackspace on 44 Edge Street near Madlab our "Learning Perl Together" series aims to cross train developers of other languages in Perl. Following discussion of Perl data types and references last month, we'll be talking about modular and reusable code. We'll be turning some code into functions and learning about the Perl Test Anything Protocol that's now in such wide use not only within the Perl community. Why not pop along and see if you can pick up something new or tell us why you prefer coding in your $language of choice. Come along to the Manchester Hackspace and say hello from 19:00 onwards - http://northwestengland.pm.org/meetings.html. Please forward this email to friends, colleagues or lists that you think might be interested. Regards, Ian. -- Ian Norton Co-Leader North West England Perl Mongers (http://northwestengland.pm.org/) Member of The Perl Foundation Marketing Committee (http://www.perlfoundation.org/) Member of FLOSS UK Council (http://www.flossuk.org/) _______________________________________________ Fsuk-manchester mailing list Fsuk-manchester at nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fsuk-manchester From les.pritchard at gmail.com Tue Oct 16 16:05:18 2012 From: les.pritchard at gmail.com (Les Pritchard) Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2012 16:05:18 -0000 Subject: [Chester LUG] LUG social - this Thursday Message-ID: Hi all, I've been looking at a few venues and following on from Stuart's suggestion to look outside the centre, I've found a pub near me with a friendly landlord! It doesn't have a private room, but he's more than willing to set us up with an area on the side. The pub also has wifi and serves food. It was nice to get such a positive response from a pub after some of the places we've been, so I'd like to give it a go. Now I realise it's not the end of the month yet, but I'm booked up next Thursday, so I'd like to suggest we meet this Thursday to try the new venue. The pub is the Rake & Pikel (www.rakeandpikel.co.uk), on Chester Road, Huntington, CH3 6BS. There's parking just outside. I've also found a hall just down the road that we could potentially hire for talks, so some months we could meet at the hall then move on to the pub after. If you're planning on coming, please let me know so I can give them an idea of numbers for our first meet. Thanks Les -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
