If you don't have a car then you might like to know that  there are 
plenty of buses running to and from the city centre to the 
pub.   Call 01709 515151 for bus information.  Use Google maps if you 
don't know where the Benjamin Huntsman is. Tea and coffee is available. 
There is a good selection of beers which are well looked after. The 
food isn't too bad either. Look out for someone sitting next to a 
laptop in front of him at the back of the pub.  That's downstairs and 
not upstairs as the people behind the bar might try and tell you....

The topic of the meeting will be a general discussion or we can fix
some hardware or software.    If you need some help with that we can
most likely point you in the right direction.   If you want to know
more about anything else come along and ask questions.  We seem
to have a keen and interested band of EeePC and other netbook people
who bring them along to meetings.  Android telephones seem to have 
become a feature of our meetings.  Various tablets have also appeared.  
All of them Android or GNU/Linux based.  The Raspberry Pi has 
established a firm grip on most things around us -

runs on.  We can discuss any version of GNU/Linux that you might be 
interested in.  A quick look around Distrowatch should give you
some idea of what's happening just now...

Always worth talking about.  Any version of BSD is also
welcome.    Hope we see you at our meeting.
