Hi all, Full details :
Where: Buddha Bar, 1 Skinners Shoot Road, Byron Bay http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=buddha+bar,+byron+bay&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=46.27475,59.326172&ie=UTF8&ll=-28.645101,153.604617&spn=0.025196,0.028968&z=15&iwloc=A And a less accurate, but possibly more useful map here : http://www.buddhabarbyronbay.com/contact-us When: 3pm, Saturday the 27th of June 2009 What: First meeting may be a little informal, but if anyone wants to do a presentation or the like, bring what you need. Dr. Nic's bringing a projector, but we aren't sure whether we'll be able to use it. Place has Wifi though. Might pay to bring a power board with your kit, just in case they are in short supply. Contact: Any questions on the day, or if you get lost on the way, give me a shout on 0439 464 175. Hopefully I'll have mobile reception at the place. Failing that, an email or twitter DM to @j_stirk, as I'll have them on the phone as soon as I have wifi. Special thanks to Zubin who arranged the venue. See you there!
