<div dir="ltr">Same message as below, but to be read with more intensity and nervousness. Maybe imagine a single bead of sweat rolling down El Rug's face. We’ve still nothing lined up for our March meeting.<div><br></div><div>Please dig deep and find it in your hearts to help us out! Even a couple of lightning talks would be enough to make a viable meeting. </div><div><br></div><div>If up til now you’ve been thinking, “eh, someone will step forward, I don’t need to” it turns out maybe you do need to. As ever, we’ll help you however we can in turning an idea into a talk. We’re very much open to pre-recorded talks too if public speaking is uncomfortable.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div><br></div><div>Murray & the rrest of the organising team</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, 28 Feb 2022 at 20:54, Murray Steele <<a href="mailto:murray.steele@lrug.org">murray.steele@lrug.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi all,<div><br></div><div>Our next meeting is due on Monday 14th March in a zoom window on your computer in the comfort of your own home* from about 18:20 to 20:00. </div><div><br></div><div>This month we’re going to hear from … you?</div><div><br></div><div>Turns out, we’re in one of those weird situations where most of the volunteers we’ve approached have been excited to talk, but for one reason or another have to defer to another month, so we’re looking thin on the ground. And by thin on the ground, I mean, we have no talks lined up 😱.</div><div><br></div><div>So, this is where you come in: the meeting is in a couple of weeks and we need something to fill it. Please volunteer a talk and we’ll get you booked in. Or convince that one colleague or friend you know who always says they want to give a talk, but never put themselves forward. Or come up with an idea for a panel discussion on some hot topics in the ruby or general development community. Or offer to run a practical session to explore a new concept.</div><div><br></div><div>Anyway, the agenda is open and we need your help. Email <a href="mailto:talks@lrug.org" target="_blank">talks@lrug.org</a> to get the process started and we’ll help you turn that idea into a whole thing.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div><br></div><div>Murray & the rest of the organising team</div><div><br></div><div>* or someone else’s home, or from your phone at the top of a mountain, honestly, it’s up to you!</div></div>
