Our pub meets tend to be in Bournemouth these days We did use to have
Dorchester and Blandford Forum ones but numbers dropped away with people
moving, etc.

Are you aware of Dorset Digital?

As it happens, their next pub meeting is in Dorchester on 15th
September, I think at Tom Browns. They tend to finalise nearer the time
on the list.
