Re: Where do I start??

Mark / Alex / Any other Londoners'

I'm certainly up for any London based face-to-face get-togethers'

(That mixes two of my favourite pastimes: Beer & Technology).

I'm also well up for a UKHA mini-convention as suggested by Keith Doxey,
and
have replied to his private email to that effect, but nonetheless would
still be interested in "networking" (hate that awful
americanism!) with any
London-based people, in addition to that.

By the way, I think CEDIA installations are prohibitively expensive (for me
anyway - I've got an expensive wife!), - they usually have a presence at
shows like the Ideal Home exhibition, and "Live 9x" (which comes
round in
November doesn't it?) - and I have visited their stand on several occasions
at these shows. They are usually showing lots of case studies for
installations their members have done, and these are almost always of the
"If you have to ask, you can't afford it" variety!!

Still, one can but hope!...

Regards.

Paul Gordon.
