[Liverpool] Fwd: [Fsuk-manchester] Software Freedom Day 2011 in Manchester

[Dan Lynch]

I'm going to Barcamp Media City at the new BBC base on Saturday but I was
just planning to head to Salford. I'd forgotten about SFD, shame on me.
Maybe I could stop by there for a bit too.

If you want a lift in that direction I can get you to Salford and then it's
a fairly short bus hop to MadLab. I won't be getting there till lunch time.
So if you want to arrive when the doors open at 11am you'll have to make
your own way.

If any other LivLuggers want to come there's 2 free seats in my car. We can
split petrol money and save the planet in one fell swoop :)

See ya,

Dan
