        I pledged 5 Euros 

        I don't mind changing venue at all as long as there is an

 If we produce them locally (by hand) they will turn out cheaper than

 leaflets/posters etc. Ralph said he will try to help us, but I would
 rather we help ourselves. If every one reading this forks out 1 or 2

 for a good cause. 

        Regarding location/power I found Irrera very noisy, so much so that
I
 would not mind changing location. OTOH it is central, has a nice

 wi-fi and good coffee. but we should choose a location illi għandu
