[Klug-general] Next KLUG Meeting

[Mark Terry]

Hi,
   I had a chat with work about using their academy space for a KLUG 
meeting. They have Tuesday evening free, but weekends would need some 
further negotiations. I know the meetings so far have always been on a 
Saturday but other meetup groups seem to do quite well with weekday 
evening meetings, maybe give a week day meeting a go?

Thoughts?
