From virtuallysue at gmail.com Fri Aug 8 14:55:15 2014 From: virtuallysue at gmail.com (Sue Spence) Date: Fri, 8 Aug 2014 14:55:15 +0100 Subject: [ANNOUNCE] London PM Leadership Change Message-ID: Hello everyone, After two years of stellar service to the London Perl Mongers, Tom Hukins will be taking a break and has asked me to take over the reins for awhile. I am happy to oblige, and thank Tom and his predecessors for the work they've done for LPM over the years. I hope the organisation will continue to evolve in new ways over the coming months. I've been happy to see that social and technical meetings seem to attract a few new people every month. We have a couple more technical events in the works for the rest of the year and I'm interested in offers to arrange more of these, as well as social outings. Speaking of socials, last night's meeting featured 2 women and 0 Daves. This is an utter Dave failure and I am disappointed in you all. The pub was really good however, thanks to Michael Jemmeson for organising it for us. -sue -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Nearest tube is probably Leicester Sq. though we could argue Picaddily Circus is not very far neither. Tables have been booked for 6.30pm, and if you are a newcomer, look out for our glorious kapellmaister Sue who will be holding the camel. De Hems 11 Macclesfield Street W1D 5BW http://www.viewlondon.co.uk/pubsandbars/de-hems-review-11170.html Cheers, Jerome. Standard blurb: Social meets are a chance for the various members of the group to meet up face to face and chat with each other about things - both Perl and (mostly) non-Perl- and newcomers are more than welcome. The monthly meets tend to be bigger than the other ad hoc meetings that take place at other times, and we make sure that they're in easy to get to locations and the pub serves food (meaning that people can eat in the bar if they want to). They normally start around 6.30pm (or whenever people get there after work) and a group tends to be left come closing time. If you're a newcomer or other first timer (even if you've been lurking on the mailing list or on IRC) then please seek our Glorious Leader out - we have a tradition that the leader of this motley crew buys the new people a drink and introduces them to people. PS: Many thanks to Peter Corlett for the original inspiration for almost all of the content above. -- Jerome Eteve From jerome.eteve at gmail.com Fri Aug 29 11:07:19 2014 From: jerome.eteve at gmail.com (=?UTF-8?B?SsOpcsO0bWUgw4l0w6l2w6k=?=) Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2014 11:07:19 +0100 Subject: [ANNOUNCE] [REMINDER] London.pm Sept. 4th Social - De Hems, W1D 4BW Message-ID: Hi all, Just a quick reminder about our September social, in case you were away from London.pm in August.
