Will - I'd pay for a taxi for you to the Uni. Just get me a receipt.

You're a very helpful and engaging person, and exactly the sort of
person we should be presenting to the next gen, as 'You too, could be
like him'

Maybe it's that the northern quarter is actually out of the way for a
lot of potential attendees. Perhaps a whole NWRUG at the uni would be
great :) 

In fact, maybe all of the user groups could iterate through upstairs at
KRO Uni (great beer. Free room hire). 

I've long since given up wondering why the students don't seem to make
it to the northern quater / town meetups. Sure it's a combination of
busyness, and cba'ness. But taking the meetups to them occasionally
could work wonders :)

(Gets back under his rock...serious about the taxi though Will.)
