Is it possible as a lug we can either create our own or obtain several official mint cd's for use at events. As it is nearly summer, and therefore cricket season I will ask if we can meet at the rugby / cricket club in Paignton on Saturdays, (maybe when the Second XI or other teams are at home (not first XI as that tends to draw more people) the cd's from the mint site seem rather expensive. I will also find out if the wireless internet has set up is going to be available all year as in through the cricket season. (don't get me started on why it may not be, ) we could perhaps then do an event or meet there once or twice over the summer. Perhaps after looking at the website creating versions of 11 would be a better plan, reason for this is that a downloadable manual is available, for version 11, so i guess they are working on version 12 manual.
