Dear ALUG,
The monthly second Thursday social meeting of ALUG will take place on
* Thursday 13th December *
at The Reindeer (10 Dereham Road, Norwich, NR2 4AY; tel. 01603
762223). It's very near the junction of Dereham Road and the Norwich
inner ring road (Grapes Hill) and serves a selection of real ales,
nice pub food (if you fancy going early to eat) and coffee.
I intend to be there from about 20:00. Others may be there earlier.
We should have a table reserved at the back of the pub just to the
left of the bar.
Note that it's late night shopping in Norwich on Thursdays and, with
Christmas being close, the traffic could be busy!
We look forward to seeing you there.
Cheers,
Richard

Tel: 01473 252425
Map/Directions URI: http://maps.google.co.uk/?q=IP4+2EA

the ALUG wiki:
http://www.alug.org.uk/wiki/moin.cgi/Meetings
All are welcome, novices and experienced users. Hopefully, it
shouldn't be too hard to find the pack, look for those huddled around
a laptop!
Feel free to ask for further information on the Main ALUG mailing list.
This month's meeting is mainly social -we're taking a night off from
tutorials, as we've had some crackers recently (tho as a follow-up to
last week, I'll probably show off the new seamless windows feature in
the latest GPL version of VirtualBox, which allows you to run Windows
apps directly on a native Linux desktop.
Hope to see you there,
Peter.
The monthly "Second Thursday" ALUG Norwich Pub Meet is this Thursday,
11th October. It will probably be my last for the foreseeable future as
I'm moving back to Northern Ireland in a couple of weeks.
It's at the Reindeer pub on the Dereham Road, just opposite the City
Gate. People will be there from 8pm-ish, though there may be a few
people there earlier.
Topics for discussion will no doubt be as varied as ever. The Reindeer
has a reasonable selection of beer as well as decent coffee (with
biscuits, if you're lucky).
Directions to the Reindeer can be found at:
http://www.alug.org.uk/venues/reindeer.html
Pictures of some of the regulars, and irregulars, and, well, just some
pictures of people that might or might not turn up are available from:

Which should hopefully aid those of you wondering who to look out for -
the most recent images are from the meet a few months back.
We now have an area reserved for us, so should be easier to find. As you
enter through the main door you'll see a small set of steps ahead of
you - the area just up those steps and to the left is where we'll be.

The monthly "Third Monday" ALUG Ipswich Social Meeting is on next week
(Monday 18th June) at 20:00:
This week, Mr. Thorpe has agreed to give us a basic tutorial on the
GIMP and show us how to do some of the simple image manipulation stuff
which can be a bit troublesome if you're not familiar with the
interface. It will probably help him, if you can post any questions
or whatever now, rather than springing them on him on the night (it's
not his day job). Tracey, this is a good opportunity to post that pic
you always go on about ... :)
I'll start by asking how I combine two A4 scans together without
making GIMP freeze for an hour! ;)
