So sorry everyone. I got back from holiday on Monday evening and went
straight intro a domestic drama. It is not secret. In fact, I will happily
bore the socks off anyone who is intrepid enough to ask, but I don't want to
put it into print.

I really am sorry. I had been trying to get a speaker, but my first choice
couldn't manage Saturdays, and I then retreated into my personal problems.
There is no excuse. I have fallen down on my "duties". It won't, I hope,
happen again.

I was in fact as my second choice looking for a speaker on Raspberry Pi, and
we have had two very successful talks by members, so Jon and Raspberry Pi is
a _very_ good idea. :-)

I have a, so far, unused Raspberry Pi. I'll bring it and its cables. I
haven't got a mouse and keyboard for it, and I gather it is fussy about
rodents and things. I'll bring a mouse, keyboard and USB hub, but I don't
know whether they will work with the Raspberry Pi, particularly as the hub is
unpowered. So perhaps other people could also bring some, in the hope that
something will work. I have two memory cards for it. One preinstalled
with XBMC (unexamined) and a blank one on which I intend to install Raspbian.
So after Jon's demonstration, we could all have a nice play.
