according to Yahoo. I might skate back home and check it out. Typical, just as I abandon Leeds for my Salford pied a terre during the week, something happens.

Dress down ?

Will the bouncers on the door be refusing entry without a (clip on) ponytail?

Something nerdy happening in Leeds? Excellent. Doesn't happen nearly as often as it should. I work in Leeds every day, so it'll be great to be able to attend something without having to drive to Sheffield or Birmingham or (God help us) London.

And in response to Richard above, I do indeed have a pony tail. :-D

excellent

Registration won't work!

When I try to register my interest using my Yahoo account, I get asked to enter a screenname. I enter one, and it tells me that my e-mail address is also required, only there's no ruddy e-mail address field on the form! So nuts to that. I'll be going to the event, they just won't know I'm coming. ;-)

I'll try to make the July meet and bring along a few monkeys to boot all the way from York.
