Good way to do this. I had a feeling that you can play Steam with
Codeweavers Wine, or whatever its called nowadays.

 Yes, we've never had that many members 'south of the river' for some
reason. As we've held meetings in Hereford and quite a few in Leominster
and Leominster area, we really ought to hold on in Ross/Ledbury way. If any
one has any good ideas for a venue, please say.

If anyone is coming from Ross direction on Weds perhaps you could share the
petrol money and share a lift ?
