[Steve Stretton]

Hi Marc,

Yes, this is a good point. we'll remember this for future events. Re  
tonight, we don't need your laptop (unless you already have it). We're  
meeting at 6pm and then again at 6:45, both at Caius Plodge. Bring a  
coat, since we'll be outside.
My number is 07879625706.
Steve
