Dear Members and Friends,  

                                                 Happy New Year to you all, and I hope you had a good break.

 

A reminder about our next lecture which is on Tuesday 7th January, by Mike Looney from Caterpillar Peterlee, and is entitled "Made in Peterlee!".  He will talk about the latest computer design and robotic assembly facilities at the plant and how they are used to create Cat's world famous products.  Start time 6pm with usual coffee and chat from 5:30pm.  Usual venue (unless there's another strike!) at the Centuria Building. Please park in the Sage car park, P10 on the car parks map, link below
