printing issues.

Thank you

Hi Guy,

First of all, welcome to the list.

It's good to hear that you're doing well with Ubuntu. I was a bit busy at the Paignton meet last time so I didn't get over to speak to you much but it's good to hear that you're all up and running okay.

It's also handy that you're now on the mailing list as you can be kept up to date on any changes to meetings, for instance I believe we're mulling over moving the Paignton meetings from the Shoreline to the Lighthouse in the future (again I believe it'll still be the same time and day, just a different venue).

Ta,

Rob
