[klug] Thursday meeting - cancellation

[Steve Withers]

A most generous and welcome suggestion. :-)  

We - as a group - haven't really developed expectations. :-)

define. 

Usual meeting times have been 7:30 until about 9:30.......partly driven
in the (deeper) past by one or two who had to get home from Wellington
and have tea first or on the way. Pick a day that suits you. It need not
be the usual 1st Thursday of the month. 

Recently, most attendees have been Kapiti local workers....and there is
likely to be some flexibility as to time. 

Anyone else out there care comment?

So have to ensure times etc. are pretty consistent.
