[Fsuk-manchester] MFS Christmas Party. Madlab. Tues, *13th* December. "MFS: Review of year gone. Discussion on next year."

[Michael Dorrington]

Please feel free to forward this to those that would welcome it.

The 3rd Tuesday of the Month is very near Christmas and Madlab will be
closed for the Christmas period, so we will have our December 2011
meeting a week earlier, on Tuesday, *13th* December. And so there won't
be an admin and social meeting.

This meeting is our Christmas Party but we will use the opportunity to
review the year gone and discuss next year.

* Discussion: MFS: Review of year gone. Discussion on next year.
* Participants: Michael Dorrington and other interested parties
                                       (hopefully that's you!).

* Location: Madlab. (Manchester Digital Laboratory).
* Address: 36-40 Edge Street, Manchester. M4 1HN.
"(Between Thomas St and the Craft Centre, opposite A Bar Called Common)"

* Date: Tuesday, *13th* December 2011 (*not* 3rd Tuesday of the month)
* Start time: 19:00
* Finish time: 20:30
