Hi Tom

I'm looking forward to hearing one of your talks already! Some of our LUG
members travel a fair distance to get to the meeting and like to have
something to eat. If we do start presenting talks, can I suggest that they
run from 8:15 - 9:00pm?  This will give people a chance to get their
catching up and eating out of the way so that talks/presentations can be
delivered uninterrupted without cutlery being rattled. Plus, I get a very
grumpy bear if I don't eat after a day at work :(

At this point, I would suggest keeping things simple; if anyone would like
to suggest giving a talk, just send a message to the mailing list,
outlining the topic and giving an indication as to when they would like to
present (remember, we generally meet every third Wednesday of the month.)

Cheers

Becky
