And a stonkin' good curry it was! Good food and good friendly service.

The Malt Cross proved to be a good venue with good ale, WiFi that
works, and friendly staff. I think we'll adopt that one as one of our
favoured venues. :-)


A good welcome to Paul on a slightly light showing for the evening.

Amongst the hot topics, we ran through php frameworks and web stuff.
Noted the passing of "dmr" aka Dennis Ritchie. Various other bits 'n'
bytes were discussed or consumed. Then later in Ye Olde Trip, I was
diverted by some brewers on a conference here in Nottingham... A pint
or two of history and modern day brewing were soon downed! ;-)

All just in time for the last bus :-)


Cheers,
Martin
