I now have more information about a possible meeting in Holsworthy
Memorial Hall.

Anyone??
Count me in.

Well, a mixed bag of responses!  At the moment it doesn't seem that
there is enough interest to get the numbers high enough to make the cost
per person reasonable.I know that we are used to free software. The
result from that is that paying for anything at all becomes annoying!

I did not consider a pub because I understand that sometimes people
bring their children. Also the hall area should be very quiet on a
Saturday afternoon. However there are 5 pubs in Holsworthy and I am good
friends with the owners of one. I will have a chat with him about this
and see what he suggests. I would mention though that my mobile phone
gets no signal at all in the pub, while just outside the door it is full.

I will report back soon,

OK, so reporting back.

I have had a chat with the owner of the White Hart which is very close
to the car park in Holsworthy.

Yes, a room on a Saturday afternoon would be no problem. No charge for
using the room. There is wifi available. If we need it there is a small
charge, maximum Â5 for the day.

And of course there are drinks available, including coffee. Snacks too.
So does that sound like a better idea than the Hall?

I guess that the Hall is more suitable for large groups, but not for
small ones.

Comments ???

Sounds good to me - cant always make it early pm as we do changeovers till 2.30pm but it would be nice to bore you all face to face over a beer..
