Great news :) I will update the eventbrite listing at lunch and send out an email.

I'm working in Edinburgh now and was thinking about trying to organise a monthly/bi-weekly lunchtime book club, would you guys be interested?  I'm also going to get Colin to start a Glasgow one too

Cheers

I'm changing jobs in a few weeks so am extremely busy finish up stuff before my move.

I'll try and arrange something in Glasgow for the end of next month if Glasgow folk are interested.
