This was posted to G+ so I am sharing here too:
Maybe people can now take Linux seriously.

I have added a link to a g+ page for the Exeter Linux user group, we work closely together anyway, unless someone wants to create a dedicated g+ page for the dcglug (NOT ME), this will suffice, and will allow us to share information on g+ too.
The UK TeX Users' Group (UK-TUG) will be arranging a presentation of the very popular course 'LaTeX for Beginners: Using LaTeX to Write a Thesis' in the summer. The course will be taking place in London on the 2nd of August 2013, starting at 9:30 am and running to approximately 4:30 pm. Content will include: - Editing and compiling LaTeX documents - Logical structure - Chapters, sections, and other document divisions - Including graphics - Creating tables - Bibliographies - Dealing with large documents The course fee is £20 for current UK-TUG members or £30 for non-members. The fee includes the course itself, refreshments on the day and a copy of the TeX Live 2012 DVD. For non-members, it also includes membership of UK-TUG for until the end of 2013. Attendees will need to bring a laptop along to the event, although it may be possible to arrange a loan machine for a limited number of people on the day. The venue is UEA London, which is approximately five minutes walk from Liverpool Street station. Provisional bookings should be made by e-mailing secretary@uk.tug.org. Confirmation of the booking, including the course fee, needs to be made within four weeks of the provisional booking. Full details of the course location, etc., will be provided to confirmed attendees.
Take up on the course has been slower than we've seen previously. I'd encourage members to 'spread the word': running the course is an important part of UK-TUG activities, but can only take place if prospective 'students' hear about it! http://uk.tug.org/

Scratch [1] is a free programming tool developed at MIT in the USA and
aimed at children / young people with the view to teaching basic
programming skills and ideas.
The software is available for Linux, Apple Macs and Windows. It also
comes with the Raspberry Pi computer [2] which I wrote about a while back.
The software is simple to use, a drag and drop interface is provided so
you can drag script components (a script is a set of instructions) from
various categories on to the central are and upon pressing a green flag,
you can see the results straight away.
You can create games, animations, story boards etc. Scratch is great as
it is aimed at children so is simple to use, user friendly but more
importantly does teach the basic skills required for programming, for
example sequences of instructions and logic.
There several books available for learning scratch. As well as an
excellent forum on the scratch website where you can ask for help. You
can also share your work with the community and link up with friends so
they can download and look at what you have done and even modify and
re-upload.
Scratch is also used as the primary teaching tool for Codeclub which is
an after school club scheme to teach programming to children. Scratch is
also used in Primary schools, so please ask your teacher if your school
has this.
