Was wondering how a restaurant in najjananlumbi would work as a venue, I hav not been to any meeting before, the owner is known to me and the place can host about 30 or so people I will sponsor a soda/tea/coffee for the attendants. Since its an eatery no Internet and no pcs. I can give details if members are interested any ideas are welcome
