Nov, Dec & January meetings. Next meeting 7th Dec.
Submitted by Jeff on 12 November 2009 - 3:16pm.We're going to reorganise the November pubmeet, December talk, and January pubmeet & talk.
We won't have the traditional 3rd-Monday pubmeet in November, instead, we'll put that off until the beginning of December, replacing our normal 1st-Monday-of-the-month talk with a meetup at the Arts Picturehouse (this location is provisional until I've had confirmation that they have space.). We will also move the January talk from the 1st Monday of January to the 3rd Monday of January 2010, discarding our January meetup.
So - the next meeting will be on 7th Dec, with the location provisionally the Arts Picturehouse.
