Hi Chris

Glad that I could increase your excitement for all things Linux!  Give
my regards to Pompey - I am a Hampshire girl, born and bred!  I love
your idea of an iCal - something for me to take forward if/when I take
over as LUG master/mistress of the new Lincs LUG.  I've certainly
increased the mailing list traffic more in the last 24 hours than has
been in the last year!  Exciting times indeed :)
