[Preston] Get together.

[Mark Walton]

Hi guys,

As a regular at the Preston Raspberry Jams, Blackpool LUG/Makerspace and 
more recently at GeekUp Preston and the Manchester LUG this very 
weekend, I have been discussing the absence of a Preston LUG meeting 
with a few of our colleagues at these forums.

I'm about to have a short holiday and then a minor op on my knee which 
will see me out of circulation for the whole of August, but I would like 
to try and pull something together when I get back.
I'd prefer to see some Open Source / Linux / Maker type of get together 
rather than another social (the Preston GeekUp and associated Breakfast 
do this very well already).

Man-Lug are planning a New User open day event at the moment, whilst the 
Blackpool Lug are working on building a MAME cabinet (along with various 
old PC upgrades and problem fixes); both seem to benefit from a 
makerspace/workshop type location, regular attendees and a great 
community spirit.
It would be good to get something similar going here in Preston and 
hopefully take advantage of our central location to collaborate with the 
other neighboring groups where possible.

I have a space we could utilize initially if we could generate any 
interest in, say, a monthly get together ?

Anyone else have any thoughts?
