Hi Dave

It was fantastic of you, Steve and Jon to make the effort to come down
and join us for our first LUG meeting.  I'm glad that you all had a
good time and you are more than welcome back any time.  Just a pity
that the drive between us is so long.

I will post a precis of what was discussed/agreed at last night's
meeting in a day or so for those Lincoln LUG members who couldn't
attend last night to read.

Please can I take this opportunity to also thank Kev, Neal, Adrian,
Linda and Philip for all attending; it was lovely to meet you all
(husband excluded from that comment! :D)
