weekend. I don't know about you guys, but my preparations are well
underway - pumping bike tyres, charging batteries... I
A reminder that the Cloud Made sponsored mapping party in Bradford is just a
week away, running over the weekend of 27 28 September.
It's open to all and we would really like to have you along. Mapping parties
are a great way to explore somewhere new and have a great time. The social
side is
An invitation to all to join me from 7:00pm this evening at The Old
Contemptibles, 176 Edmund Street, Birmingham (Alongside Snow Hill Station -
sorry If I said Moor Street previoualy!) for some gentle OSM banter and
discussion on the now nearly complete map of Birmingham.
Cheers
Andy

A reminder that the Manchester Mapping Party is less than a week away. Its

Manchester to help some new users try out this mapping thing.
I'll also bring this up in AOB at our OSMF meeting later
Cheers
Andy
