Hi,
Can I just turn up for this talk or do places need to be booked? Is it
likely to be a sell-out!!!
Andy

Yeah, I nearly didn't approve that msg.

sod
those modem lusers that have to pay for their downloaded mail, that'll teach
them to move to a broadband-enabled neighbourhood"

Did we want to organise a trip to this event?
It is a ScotLUG night - so maybe some cars travel down to see him in
the afternoon.
End up at ScotLUG and then pub afterwards?
Anyone interested?

Yeah, that'll learn them!
However, is anyone else worried that our list admin seems to receive the
digest form of the mailing list? ;).
Willie can prove it isn't true (and, at the same time, prove himself as
an ever-helpful list-admin) by replying to this before the digest comes
out! No forwarding him this mail now people :).
Thanks,
Allan

Yes, no, maybe. Err, I dunno.
I got confused. I don't think I'm confused anymore but then misguided
confused people seldom do.
Apologies and stuff.
