I'm at the other extreme of our member locations  
(http://www.lincs.lug.org.uk/members.php) right in the very South 70 
miles from you. I personally don't think I would travel 65 miles to 
Scunthorpe for a meeting and if you were considering travelling from  
Grimsby  to the last meeting then you're probably more dedicated than I!

I suppose  we have two options really. We can either alternate meetings 
between a Northern venue and a Southern venue or we can pick a place as 
central as possible  (around Lincoln) and stick to it. Do any members 
near Lincoln have any ideas for venues?

A third option would be to split into two groups and have a South 
Lincolnshire Linux User Group (SLLUG) and a North Lincolnshire Linux 
User Group (NLLUG) but I feel we should persevere with a larger 
catchment area for the time being  and see how it goes.**

uh huh, we hear you. Perhaps *mid-realm* would be more convenient for all.

P.S. lug.org.uk is back! Anyone know what happened to it over the past 
couple of days?
