[Wylug-discuss] York / WYLUG mailing lists

[John Robert Hudson]

Indeed, I have fond memories of WYLUG when it introduced me to Linux in 1999 
and I saw a beautiful desktop for the first time in my life as well as heard a 
talk about a new-fangled thing called GRUB.

I won my first raffle prize ever at WYLUG - a real TUX penguin - which still 
adorns my desk.

I tried to get over to the WYLUG meetings when they were still in central 
Leeds but then they dried up.

Best wishes to all

John
