Why are all meetings held in Plymouth and South Devon?

Quite simply because Paul makes the effort to orginise one - he lives in Paignton and AIUI has limited transport.

And I don't think the Plymouth meeting is a LUG affrair - it's a slightly different group of geeks....

There are those of us who live in North Cornwall. I am certainly not prepared to drive to the South Coast for a meeting which I may or may not be interested in.

Shame. I am prepared to drive a bit to meet new people and chat about what's happening. Off to Padstow on Tueseday for example to talk to a group of young people about maintaining their digital footprint... It might not be Linuxy but it's still something computer and online related.

Saturdy (Or Sundays) in Torbay can be fun - bring the family and have a day of it. The Apollo cinema is really nice too.

It seems all DCLUG activity is now focused on the South Devon area

Only becuase no-one else is arranging anything.

It leaves me wondering if it is worthwhile remaining a member as little
on the Forum is of interest to someone who is not an expert or geek if you prefer.

Read, listen, experiment and start asking questions.
