All sounds good to me :)
I think it will be a great venue (thats before I have seen it from the
inside! lol). It is sooo cheap and brand, with projectors, cafe, and
wifi coming soon (i am told)....

If I attended the November meeting (which i very much hope to) I will
obv. help with the costs.

You already know I am interested in SFD. Promotion, promotion,
promotion.... lol ;-)

Best wishes
roly :-)
