Could do a config problem solving meeting (bring your own PC and problem :-)
Some groups do this regularly as the first part of their meeting before the
speaker talks
(think Leicester does)
Might encourage a bit of growth?

I'd certainly be intersted in a lift to a ShefLUG meeting (or even a group
train ticket, I guess) cos I've been to ShefLUG events before and enjoyed
them. I'd be interested to go to Leicester too (again the train is a
possibility since the station is right in the middle of the city)

And the back of it is polished too! Which looks like... er... looking into
the back of a spoon.
So, you can either go look at the massive mirror or, if you can't be
bothered, then just look into a headlight and the back of a spoon :-)

Seriously it is a most impressive piece of public art and I hope, somewhat
naively, that it doesn't get vandalised (too quickly :-(
