[Liverpool] Liverpool Digest, Vol 200, Issue 2

Thu Oct 29 21:33:29 UTC 2009

Hello again

Sorry I haven't been able to make the last few LUGs I have been working
shifts and my working days did not fall kindly on the first Wednesday of the
month.  I am in a new job now and working sensible hours for a change so
should be able to make the 4th of November LUG.  I have been keeping track
of events on the lug mail though and will probably head out to the Ubuntu
launch tomorrow, I will try to catch up with some people there.

Paul, could you also put me down for the Thia curry night as well.  I hope
to see you at the next LUG, if you can't make it then I will see you at the
curry night.

Thanks
