Note that we now have a good Internet connection.

It will be the usual bring a box meeting.  Bring your problems, bring your 
gadgets, come to chat or come to learn.  Bring anything from a smartphone to 
a large desktop - so long as it is Open Source!

We also have a talk and a demonstration this time.  

Felicity Meadows will talk on: "Git: the content version
manager".

And young Master Taylor Collins will show us the robot arm, which he built 
using a kit from Maplin.  It is connected to a Raspberry Pi and controlled 
using python and a Nintendo Wii-mote.  It is used at times in a game to move 
marbles from one pot to another.  Those who  move enough marbles within a 
given time win a sweet.

If you have a problem you would like help with, let us know in advance so that 
we can try to have the right people/equipment/CDs there to help with the 
problem.

I look forward to seeing some of you there.  It is a long way for many of you.  
Too far for some.  But if you are within reach, give us a try.  If you 
haven't been before, don't be shy.  We are a friendly group, and would love 
to see you.  Come and see what we are about and what we look like.
