Well I think it's time for a first get-together, to get the ball
rolling and to see where this thing goes. It's scheduled for Thursday
30th July, i.e. a month from now. This is to give some time for the
word to get out and let people have a chance to plan it into their
calendars.

I'm suggesting provisionally the Briton's Protection pub, on Great
Bridgewater St, next to the Bridgewater Hall:

http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/11/1127/Britons_Protection_Hotel/Castlefield

I've just spoken to them on the phone and there are a couple of
smallish rooms at the back, and a room that can be hired, with a
screen, upstairs.

Please feel free to suggest format, topics, etc, on this discussion
group.

Thanks!

I thought I'd point out that we do have, in fact, a very kind offer of
some space in a newly formed hackspace in the Northern Quarter. If
it's ready and they're still willing, we could meet there instead.

Curses! You conflict (unintentionally I should add) with the Stockport
& S/E Manchester Hackspace this week!

I'm interested and I'll try and make it to the next one! In the mean
time, if anyone's interested in getting involved with the Stockport &
S/E Manchester Hackspace, please take a look at our list [1]. We try
and use as many different sources to make sure we conflict with as few
events as possible, but on this occasion we've missed your event.

Please let me know how you get on!

Double-curses! That's unfortunate indeed. Thanks for the message,
anyway, and it would be great to see you next time.

Thanks!
DJ
