We shall be meeting as usual at the Broadoaks Social Club* from 13:00 to 18:00
on Saturday 21st February 2015.
Do come. If you haven't been before, we are a friendly lot and would love to
see you. All are welcome.
It is a bring-a-box meeting, so bring a 'box', bring a notebook,
bring anything that might run Linux, or just bring yourself and enjoy
socialising/learning/teaching or simply chilling out! Bring any Linux or
Open Source problems, come to have help installing Linux or simply to pick up
installation media. One of our members has an ongoing wireless problem (in
OpenSuSE), so wireless gurus particularly welcome. ;-)
Dr. Adam Trickett will be talking about Perl: "Introduction to Perl: The
friendly programming language".
Those of you who have heard Adam before will know what a treat we are in for.
I would certainly say that "il vaut le détour".
I shall try to be there at about 12:00. If I am the only one left at
any time after 5:00, I shall go. So if you want to arrive ultra late, make
sure that you let me know!
How to find the venue and other basic details below.
See you there,
Lisi

For newcomers:
Facilities for talks are good, other facilities adequate. There are some
power points, but not enough, but they can be extended by the
extension leads some of us sometimes remember to bring. (Hint, hint!)
Switches would also be useful. There is Wi-Fi, but it is, shall we say,
problematic (and slow). There is also ethernet, but again not very fast (2
Meg) and the room has, if they have not been pinched, homeplugs.
There is a bar, which also serves tea and coffee, but if you want more food
than crisps or a chocolate bar you will need to bring it.
There is plenty of parking just opposite the club, and Hilsea railway
station is immediately adjacent. If coming by car, please note that Norway
Road is at a higher level than Airport Service Road, and flies over it.
The door to the club will probably be locked. If so, you will need to
ring the buzzer and ask for the Linux meeting. Go up the stairs and
through the bar to the door at the back left corner of the bar.
The sign-in list will, as usual, be at the back of the room. Please do not
forget to sign it. The gold moneybox will also be at the back of the room.
