The Greater London Linux User Group is having our second annual
summer picnic. 

That's right, for the second year running, we will be meeting up at
Bletchley Park for a picnic at a genuine site of computer history. The
meeting is on Sunday 17th August 2003, and we'll be meeting up at the
entrance to the site between 12 noon and 1pm. We don't have a fixed
end time, but the park closes at 6pm. This is meant to be a picnic, so
feel free to bring food along - alternatively, there are places on-site to
get decent food. This weekend is a special event at Bletchey Park,
called "Wireless Waves around Bletchley", celebrating the importance
of the radio service to the code-cracking work done at Bletchley. 

More information about the site, travel and the special event can be
