I can do the 13th at 7:00 (or any evening that week) - be good to meet some other local *Nixettes.

Hi all,
In response to Sandy, I've just totted-up the replies mentioning can (and
no-can) do dates. Seems to me like Tuesday 13th, 7pm upstairs at Behind the
Wall (2 definite yesses, one no, one away). So unless someone can come up
with an earth-shattering reason to change, see you there!

OK, see you there, on Tuesday.
In response to Sandy's question, I think it will just be introductions all round, putting faces to names, then general discussion, comparing notes, etc.
It's probably too soon to organise the Ubuntu talk offered, but that could be put on the 'programme' for a future meeting - all suggestions welcome!
Regards
Rob
