Open to everyone Jimmijam.

All very informal.
Different venues each time.
Sybil will post more details nearer the time.

The first big meet in Glasgow we took in the Peoples Palace, Provands Lordship and the Necropolis.

Last time it was the Transport Museum, Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, and the Hunterian.

Meal and drinks optional at the end of the Saturday.

(We'll talk about you if you don't show up for that!)

Hi Dave,
Well we can't have that. Put me down too.

I hope you're not all that scary! How do you know who you are, or do you know each other ?(sorry, not making much sense, hope you know what I mean!).
Best wishes, Jimmijam

You'll be really welcome.

A lot of us know each other but there are always new faces.
We've previously met in a central location where we can have a coffee.  Most, if not all of us, will have homemade Rootschat name badges.  We'll also give you a couple of mobile phone numbers.

Where are you from Jimmijam?
