Following a discussion on IRC this morning I have the following proposal:

29th November is our LUG meeting in Maidstone.  The meeting will be 
10:00 to 14:00.

The area around the school is pretty much blank on OpenStreetMap so the 
idea is to spend a couple of hours before it gets dark doing some 
walking around and recording stuff.  Then repair to somewhere warm with 
a WiFi connection so we can enter and upload our information whilst 
partaking of refreshment.

OpenStreetMap are also doing a data gathering exercise this coming 
weekend, and hopefully some of our crew will be participating and will 
be able to share their experiences with us at the meeting.  Anyone 
wishing to participate on 8th/9th see Nick Black's email of 3/11 to this 
list.

Finally, the day would conclude with an economical meal out.  This could 
be a curry - but if someone has a suggestion of a cheap place to eat 
where we can book a table then it can be there.  (Curry houses do have 
the advantage that they do vegetarian quite well and can usually offer 
both spicy and mild foods.)  It happens that I'm over in Maidstone on 
the afternoon of 17th November so I can check somewhere out then.

WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO:
####################

1) Respond to this email to say you want to participate in
   a) mapping/data-gathering 14:00 to 16:00
   b) drinking/data-recording 16:00-18:00
   c) eating 18:00 onwards
or any combination of the above

2) Suggest venues for b) and c) if you know Maidstone

I need responses by bedtime on Sunday 16th November.  I'll then do some 
research and propose a final plan in week commencing 17th Nov.

Mike
