September 11th - XPManchester IRL

[Mark Kirschstein]

Hi folks,

After approximately "ages" we're meeting in person again. 

Keeping to our old slot of the 2nd Thursday (evening) of the month, we're at Ada College in Ancoats. We'll be waving goodbye to Kevin, who has rather rudely retired. I'll also be rambling semi coherently for some minutes beforehand.

We need a list of names for the venue so that we ask that you acquire a free ticket if you're coming, and please spread the word that we're back via LinkedIn and whatever networks you kids use these days.

I believe (correct me if I'm wrong, Leon) that the coffee morning will still be happening on this date also.

[Kevin Rutherford]

Do I need to get a ticket?  ;-)

I think I can hard code an exception into the guest list, just this once.

And in case anyone was wondering, Lean Coffee will be happening on 11th as usual. 7.30 for a 7.45 start. I'll post the link up closer to the day.

So why not start and end your day with Extreme Programming chat?

I shall try and juggle childcare to be at both, but we shall see. :)

thanks for the early heads up all!

I've just realised I'm going to be away for this. :(

Have a great time, and enjoy your retirement Kevin.
