[Gllug] [ANNOUNCE] GLLUG Meeting Saturday 20th November 2004

[GLLUG Organiser]

	Apologies for the short notice for this meeting, we have been
	short of volunteers to organise this meeting, and we almost
	didn't have it. But since it'll probably be the last meeting
	for this year; we thought we should make the effort to get
	together. The details for speakers are still being finalised,
	but we thought we'd also let anybody who wants to "show and tell"
	do so!

	Hopefully we'll update the web site with any further details
	before the meeting. So looking forward to seeing you there.

  There is a GLLUG meeting on Saturday 20th November 2004,
  between 1:30pm and 5pm.

  We will be meeting in the New Cavendish Street campus of Westminster
  University. This is in the shadow of the BT Tower, the nearest tube
  stations are Great Portland Street, Warren Street and Goodge Street.
  You will find a map at http://www.wmin.ac.uk/cavendish/Map.htm
  or via the html version of this announcement on the GLLUG website

  NOTE: you will need to sign in at the front desk to gain access to the
  building.

  the Online page of the GLLUG web site [http://www.gllug.org.uk].

SCHEDULE
========
  The meeting will start at 1:30pm with a series of Lightning Talks (each
  talk lasting no longer than 15 minutes). [details to come]

OTHER ACTIVITIES
================
  We will have one lab area, down in the basement, room number LG17.
  There will be signs directing people there.

  People can also bring and setup their own machines. You can do this
  if you have something to show off, or you are looking for a solution
  to some problems. If your are bringing in your own machine, make sure
  you sign it in when you arrive, otherwise security won't let you take
  it when you go! We'll have monitors, keyboards, mice, and powerleads
  available. [So no need to lug all that stuff].

  We should have access to some of the latest iso images and some CD-Burners.

  If you decide to bring a PC, please have the serial number written
  down ahead of time, in case it needs to be registered at the ground
  floor Reception. We may also take a picture of you and your PC as
  proof of ownership ... or if it's real pretty :-)

  The lab is where you can go to, should you be looking for sanctuary
  away from the formal talks. Actually, if we're lucky the Refectory on
  the ground floor will have its food and drinks machines restocked;
  I believe its just been refurbished.

AFTER THE MEETING
=================
  After the meeting, for those that want, the group will probably move
  off to 'The Green Man' public house, opposite Great Portland Street
  Tube, about 8 minutes walk away.
  Even if you were unable to make the daytime meeting, please feel
  free to join us at the pub; to chat about the issues raised in the
  talks or anything else that takes your fancy. To help you find the
  pub, check out the link on the website.

  Usually we also then go off to one of the cheaper restaurants nearby,
  else the pub usually serves food.
