There really needs to be no appearance of anyone taking over a LUG or any of it's events. The Ubuntu UK teams involvement with LUGs and their events should be rightly seen as a plus point having users and developers like ourselves who are so deeply involved in Ubuntu chipping in to help and hopefully enhancing their event(s). When events can be organised and I am able to attend. If it requires a little travel, I will be able to have my better half take me and we will be able to offer lifts to those in our area. Our second car is a Volvo estate, so transporting a few PC's is not a problem. ;-) Regards Phil -- ubuntu-uk mailing list ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk
