[LRUG] November meeting - what'll we do this time?

[Murray Steele]

Also, Jason Cale is going to do the talk / disussion thing he suggested.
There might be room for another tiny wee show off your hack talk, but we
don't really need it and could just go to the pub earlier.

Go get yourselves registered.
