[Dundee] Perth Newbie

[chris wyllie]

Hey, uh, welcome :-)

A meeting in January would be great, i'd love to come a long as I'm a bit
inexperienced but want to learn stuff about linux. Pub meets may be a slight
problem for me being only 17 but nevermind. I know someone who'd probably
come with me although I don't think they're on the mailing list...

Anyway, hopefully get to see you all sometime,
  Chris
