[ILUG] Saturday's dublin meeting

[Liam Bedford]

I was going to say one thing about the next meeting. Seeing as it's going to
be between
the 14th and 21st of April, and the _full_ bus strike is due to start April
12th,
would it be a good idea to consider holding it out west somewhere?

Coz then everyone would have the same access problems, not just those
without
cars :)
