Hi everyone,
The December WLUG meeting will be the
annual end of year barbeque.
This year the barbeque will be on Sunday 18
December, starting at around 2pm. The venue is the same as last time -
Perry and Jamie's, 3 Liston Crescent.
Due to the closeness to Christmas there will be no
postponement if it's wet. Please check the website and mailing list before
coming if you're in any way concerned about the weather.
Please bring yourselves, partners [1], meat,
alcohol, topics of conversation [2], and a passing interest in backyard
cricket. WLUG will provide salad, bread and soft drinks as usual.
You don't have to be a member to come to the
barbeque, but if you aren't, it would be a really nice gesture to bring your $20
and sign up, wouldn't it?
Hope to see you all there.
Craig
[1] Not all topics of conversation at WLUG
barbeques are suitable for children. Some aren't even suitable for
us.
[2] Some comment was made in the last survey about
some of the members being 'cliquey'. Two things are at play here; a lot of
the WLUG regulars are friends outside of WLUG, and a lot of people go to
barbeques and have weekends to get away from computers. Please don't
expect all the topic to be about Linux. Probably, most of it will be about
backyard cricket. Most of the people involved are easy to talk to, so
please strike up conversations, and if there's anything that can be done to make
the barbeque better, feel free to suggest it to someone who looks
official.
