<br>
as to the next meet watch this space:<br>
(looks likely to be the first weds in october)<br>
<br>
also the ict centre in benedict street have pointed out to me that
someone said st dunstan's let us (as a user group) down.<br>
this is not actually true as due to staff absence we were unable to
make use of the facilities during a holiday period.<br>
our new night caretaker has now begun work and i will be doing my
utmost to get his support.<br>
please let me do this in *my own way*.<br>
thank you.<br>
<br>
until we meet again,<br>
