Well, as promised, here is the report I said i'd write up on the last C.A.U.G.
meeting held at the radford Community Centre on 12th July. As hoped, the venue
proved to be more than suitable, and I think we have made a good choice. I for
one am looking forward to our next meet, lets just hope we get a few more
"faces" there :-).
As those who attended will be aware, a lot of time was spent on getting the
important matters sorted for the future, namely getting someone to take hold of
the purse strings, for which I thank Nick Ripley and Carl Birkin for taking on,
(it was Barbados I was to meet you at, wasn't it ?) and also nominating someone
to meet with the RCA at their monthly meets. This was taken on by Gordon Stott
and myself, (hope we get free tea !:-)), we'll get back to you with more info
on this when we can.
It was also decided that the best way forward for the group to obtain the
neccesary funds to enable us to stay at the RCC was to introduce a membership
fee to CAUG. This was set at £5 for the year, which entitles any paid up member
to all the facilities that the group has to offer, ie the CAUG disk library as
well as any copying required, the CAUG magazine library and, of course, free
admission to all CAUG meetings, otherwise a 50p entrance charge will be made
and a charge will be made for the disk library etc. I should also add at this
point that it was agreed there would be a consessionary (spulin cheka not on)
charge for OAP's, UB40's and U16's. This was set at £3 PA. It was also agreed
that the tea would no longer be free :-(((, from now on it's 10p a cup, btw IOU
2 cups I believe Gordon :-) Well, that's about the nitty gritty done, apart
from the fact that the previous correspondence between myself and Ian McLean,
the secretary to the Radford Community Association, was discussed, so on to the
meet itself..
Those in attendance at this meet (not many of us unfortunately) were :- (in no
particular order) Keefy (Keith Dunn), Gordon Stott, Nick Ripley, Carl Birkin,
myself Beaky (Keith Bateman), Ken ??????????, a new face :-), Welcome to you
Ken and last but not least, the All At Sea Captain Antony Lacey, who put in an
appearance in the dying minutes, although I am led to believe he'll be there
for the whole show next month :-) Unfortunately the computers didn't get much
of a look in at this meet, time seemed to fly past, although I noticed Ken
peering inquisitvely over both mine and Keefy's shoulders at times with eyes
agog :-))). Hopefully next month will be more of a hands on session with a few
progs being demo'd and a few more questions being asked with a 30 minute head
scratching answer to them <g>.
Well, I think that's enough ranting from me for now, except to say of course
that the next meet is on *9th August '97*, *same place*. *same times*.
Hope to see you all there,
Now that we have this 'official' meeting place there is no excuse for those of
you near enough to Coventry not being able to travel over. Birmingham must
have hundreds of Atari users. So come on down to the next meet, and if you
have a machine, try and bring it with you ;-)
LLAP...........................
