Southampton meeting in August – usual place, different time

Last month it was usual time, different place – will both differ next month? The Southampton RISC OS Users Group will be holding it’s next meeting on Wednesday (oops…) Tuesday, 8th August – in the usual venue, but not at the usual time. The group normally meets in the Itchen College Sports Centre (unless pesky student exhibitions dictate otherwise) at around 7:00pm, but this month the meeting is scheduled for 6:45pm – and while the meetings usually run until 9:00pm, this one is scheduled to end at 8:30pm.

July’s cloak and dagger meeting in Southampton

Venue a highly guarded secret, revealed only to those who know the code1 The Southampton RISC OS Users Group normally meets in the Itchen College Sports Centre, but there is a change of venue for their July meeting – to a top secret location, the actual address of which is a highly guarded secret1.

News nybble: Southampton meeting tomorrow night cancelled

The meeting scheduled and announced for the Southampton RISC OS User Group – which would otherwise have taken place Tuesday, 9th May (tomorrow night) – has been cancelled.

Organiser Andrew Conroy says he will try to arrange an alternative date, and let everyone know as soon as possible.

Southampton meeting – 11th April

No bunnies were harmed sent on their holidays in the arranging of this meeting. If London on the Easter weekend is still too daunting for you, the next Southampton RISC OS User Group meeting will take place six days earlier, on Tuesday, 11th April. However, this doesn’t coincide with any public holidays and is a normal working day, and there aren’t as many famous tourist attractions in Southampton as there are in London anyway. Readers could therefore be tempted to conclude that I’m just using the London meeting as a…
